If you’ve been around Instagram lately, odds are you’ve seen the viral rhinestone trim cropped tank from Zara that’s taken over *aesthetic* feeds everywhere. They initially released the top in black and white colorways, but rereleased it in a nude blush color after it sold out the first time. I finally got my hands on this $35 trendy top, and thought I’d give you my honest review and some styling tips (including a cheaper alternative!). Read on…

Initial thoughts…

My initial thoughts when this arrived in the mail? The trim is really cute, and I love the softness of the material, but the rhinestones snag on the stretchy fabric REALLY bad. Like it’s kind of annoying to put it on and take it off because it catches nonstop. Once it’s on, it’s really comfy though, and the trim didn’t bother my skin! It does show bra lines really easily, so keep this in mind and consider going braless to avoid lines!

Buy or bye?

Overall, I like this top. Not the most practical thing ever, but it’s cute and trendy, and for how often I’d wear it, it’s not that big of a deal! I didn’t love the price tag for the snagging issue though, so I found a cheaper option on Amazon that’s a bit more reasonable below; shop by clicking each image!

How I styled it…

To style a statement top like this, I went with a pair of croc embossed faux leather pants, pointed toe pumps, and an equally trendy Coperni ring bag. Let the rest of your outfit and accessories complement, not compete, with this top! Shop my pairings for it below…
