Crop top season is here so the time to don one is upon you. In recent light of a major magazine's blunder in which it was said that you should only wear a crop top if you have a flat stomach I am seriously sick of random irrelevant people policing women's bodies. They are making it seem as if they're the be all and end all when it comes to fashion. I wonder how they fathom that a woman with a bit of a belly cannot pull off a crop top. Its not that hard! All she'll need is a crop top, some bottoms and she's set! So damn annoying!
To combat all of the negativity I decided to wear my shirt from Arrow's Stephen Amell Sinceriously campaign. I was really excited to wear this as I had not a chance to before or anything to wear it with. The shirt was tighter around the tummy than I liked so I folded it under the words to make a cute crop. Pairing it with my camo jacket and booties from Primark I inadvertently created a GabiFresh style capture. I quite happy about that because I absolutely love Gabi. Her style is so much like mine since we both gravitate to more street looks.
I kinda like when I put on an outfit that captures a favorite blogger. It makes me feel like I'm not still a kid playing dress up but I'm actually learning the rules from the pros as to how to actually put together and wear clothing.

Its
amazing how influential some people are. Take my top for an instance.
Stephen Amell created the word sinceriously. Then he began a campaign to
benefit the charities Stand for the Silent & Paws and Stripes.
The reason I bought it was to support a favorite actor's charity and in
return feel good about helping someone I'd never have or will meet. By
doing this I unknowingly represented what the word sinceriously
means: To initiate any action while spreading as much good karma as
possible.
I never would have thought of to donate to those charities but through
him I did. Since the other definition for sinceriously is 'The ability
to speak freely, openly and honestly about anything' I sinceriously
feel good about that.
Loving the look as usual, very well put together. I also love the combination of colors.
