Ask Angie and others: Yay! A pair of crops I like and 2 new tops

Lovely Ladies,
I have been looking for such a long time and finally found of crops that I actually like! I have tried them with various tops and am pleased with them. Two of the tops in the photos (a polka dot top, and a paisley ruched top still have the tags on and I would like opinions on them. Lastly, one of the tops in the photos is sort of an orphan. It is a black and white short sleeve v and I am unsure of whether it flatters or not.

New tops in pics 6-7 (with crops) and in pics 8-9 (with white jeans)

Thanks for the opinions and suggestions as always!

LOVE the new crops! That's a great length and silhouette. I suggested to client Karen that we hem all her crops to that length and fit, and she hasn't looked back.

LOVE the sleeveless top too!

I am not sure about the other top because I can't quite see the effect of the sleeve.

Yay! I am so glad you like the new crops! I wore them today as pictured in pic #1. Is it the polka dot blouse you can see the sleeves on? Or is it the orphan from white house black market.

The crops look fab on you Meredith - I really like how slim fitting they are on your beautiful legs. I didn't get a chance to comment on your other thread about the new top in pic #6 and #9 - love it! Gorgeous colour and fit on you.

Yay! Thanks for the speedy response. I hope you and your Papa are having a lovely visit. My dad died 10 years ago and I miss him so much!

Love the crops and tops! Where did you finally find the crops you like?

@Shannon,
Thanks so much! I decided to try styling the top to make sure it would work with several things per Rae and Una's suggestion and I am more confident that I can work it into my closet along with the new polka dot top.

@Morethanbeige,
Thanks! The crops are the MIa skimmers from Talbots and they were almost 50% off!

Meredith I vote yay to all! I actually love the orphan even more than the new sleeveless on you, and that's saying *something* because I rather adore it!

I'm amazed that you found some cropped pants that I like a lot! I've been very leery of anything like capris or what have you, and you've found something very stylish looking...woo hoo!

The whole effect is very Audrey or Parisian Chic if you ask me. I also think the two new tops are keepers.

As for the orphan top - your facial expression has me saying, "Donate". Do you feel less than fab in it? If so, then it's time for it to be retired from your closet.

Thanks to all you lovely ladies!

@VC
I am going to try the orphan a couple of times. Maybe I'm being unfair to it. It has a temporary reprieve! Thanks for thinking my look slightly Parisian!

@Shannon,

These crops are excellent on you! I still like the sleeveless top too. Can't tell about the orphan - it gives a great shape but I just can't see the details. You look great in that green color also!

I love the crop pants, and the new tops look like great choices. I really would love to see the orphan out to play, very flattering silhouette!
