Crop Tops In The Cold? These 5 Outfits Prove It’s Possible

We've been waxing poetic about transitional dressing for a couple of months now. Mother Nature has been gentle on us, granting us only the occasional dreary day to remind us that winter will come — eventually. But, today, an icy gust of wind hit us like a slap to the face: It's mid-November, kids, and it's cold.

All you need is a long blouse to cover up areas that would otherwise be left exposed — a simple styling trick that'll help you get 365 days out of your summer wardrobe.

Instagram's best dressed have already vetted the trend, so now you, too, can have summer all year long — or, at least pretend. Ahead, see how five bloggers master the cold-weather crop top.
