10 Crop Tops to Wear as Sari Blouses

We all know the crop top is great, and thank its creators for giving it to us. But to say that it's like any other summer wardrobe essential would be a mistake. Because it's so more than that. If you're willing to experiment, you can turn this teeny-weeny piece of cloth into something entirely different; into a blouse replacement for your saris, to give your desi aesthetic an Indo-Western twist (but do it well and no one will even know). Ahead, the 10 best crop tops to wear as sari blouses or by themselves—we cover the whole range, from block-print desi tops to oomph-oozing off-shoulder numbers. Take your pick.
