Since I am abroad I tried to move here with only one suitcase (one extra large, over weight suitcase) and spend my days mixing & matching my favorites pieces. (And honestly I think I need about three suitcases to bring all my stuff back!) The quantity in your closet does not matter how you wear it does. I chose my lace cropped top from Topshop as my stable piece and wore it three different ways.
Look One:
For this look I chose to wear my cropped top with a high-waisted skirt. To give the outfit more of a feminine and sexy feel I let my bra show through the top. This outfit would be perfect for an aftenoon of shopping and lunch or a night out with your girlfriends
skirt, zara; sandals, onyx; bra, la perla
Look Two:
My cropped top in one of my favorite pieces because of the buttons down the back. To extenuate this feature of the top I unbuttoned it and wore the top backwards to give it a cardigan look. I layered that on top of a solid white tank top and jeans shorts for the ultimate day outfit.

Look Three:
With the new skirt trend this summer I wanted to give this outfit the look of the maxi skirt without the hassle of searching high & low for the perfect maxi skirt for my petite frame. So, instead I pulled of my favorite maxi dress, layered it with my topped cropped and vua-la the perfect maxi skirt.

Whats your favorite piece that you can mix & match?
