Love the vintagey heathered acid wash look of these. I don't know what it is, but I need my solid color basics to have some sort of visual texture - something about it gives "lived-in" but elevated. Flat color just reads cheap to me... this is why i LOOOOVE these bralettes (arguably crop tops). And the actual texture? Chef's kiss buttery goodness. I was also surprised at the level of support these provided. I always roll my eyes a little at reviews raving about excellent support when the ladies' cup sizes are smaller than a C. Let me tell you, I have large, pendulous, DDD's that have ballooned and deflated from breastfeeding, and I was pleasantly surprised at how lifted and secure I felt. Bought this in 5 different colors...and will probably be back for more.
