Spring 2012 Fashion Week Trend: Would You Wear a Crop Top?

We've spotted a fair amount of skin making its way down the Spring 2012 runways — and designers are zeroing in on one not-so-subtle way to flaunt your figure.

We've spotted a fair amount of skin making its way down the Spring 2012 runways — and designers are zeroing in on one not-so-subtle way to flaunt your figure. From Dolce & Gabbana, Versace, Missoni, and more, crop tops are taking over the catwalk. The cropped, bustier-style tops are being paired with longer flowing skirts, à la Missoni, tea-length ladylike skirts, like we saw at Dolce & Gabbana, and slick pencil skirts from Versace. This isn't a look well-suited for wallflowers, but if you're in the market for a sexier style, this might be your thing. So tell us, would you wear a crop top or is this look better left on the runway?

Celeb Style: Charlize Theron Blends Balenciaga With an Anorak Just Right

With a bright yellow Balenciaga in tow, Charlize Theron arrived at LAX in an enviably pulled-together travel look.

With a bright yellow Balenciaga in tow, Charlize Theron arrived at LAX in an enviably pulled-together travel look. It's not just the bag that caught our attention; Charlize's impeccably chic look seems effortlessly styled. The trick is statement pieces, like a floral-printed scarf, cat-eye shades, and a broken-in anorak to dress up a basic tee and jeans combo. It's easy enough to replicate, but the results are so much more sophisticated, and just right for a trip. To channel the same easy look, just shop our editor's picks.
