Is there anything more satisfying than getting multiple uses out of one item of clothing? This week, we saw bloggers around the globe achieving the crop-top effect by wearing bras as shirts. There were brassieres of all different styles, from logo-centric sports bras to lace styles and a classic demi-cup. The trick to making this style hack appear intentional: layers. Sonia threw a loosely fitted suit over a bandeau in Poland, while Keshia unbuckled her overalls for a casual look. In California, Nicole and Anni highlighted their intimates under sheer tops. Click through the slideshow for more ways to look as liberated as Selena in her signature bustiers.
