Nervous

I'm nervous about the fancier items that are popular now. I fear animal prints, denim in light or dark wash and plain or distressed. I avoid the new fitted jackets. An old suit jacket with a peplum is OK, and I love knits, but not fitted cardis. I think cardis are OL. I don't like pencil skirts or heels. I like full skirts. Soft flats are best. I don't like the softer prints and florals. I like defined prints or oatmeal or pale pastel colors. I hate black. Don't even mention flat irons. I don't like the heavier modern bangles, either. I like fine filligree jewelry. Matching makes me feel safer than a mixed bag. I like to dress up.
So should I try Crops? I'm going to an important casual event,

Crops can be great, but they have to fit properly and need the proper support outfit. No tapering, no stretchy fabric. They will be displaying your ankle and emphasizing your feet. How are your ankles? You can improve their look with a neat heeled shoe. Flat flips, even leather ones, won't do it. They are for a beachy outfit. The crops outfit needs some structure, like a structured jacket or a tucked shirt, at least. Don't try to get away with a white tank that emphasizes your hip line and a pale knit sweater over. And avoid a bunch of pale pearls, too.

The crop here is blending with the leg, no defined cut-off line, and the shoe is really doing the Job
