In one sentence, describe what the following article is about:

A printed crop top and skirt (or slacks) set is a trendy, flattering style perfect for parties or even school dances. If you pair a printed top with a printed bottom, make sure the prints match exactly! Patterns that are even slightly off will clash. Tie-front tops give a cute, retro vibe and cover a bit more skin than the usual crop top--just a bit of skin will show over your bottoms. You can also make your own tie-front top by tying up a button-down shirt. This is a great way to ease into the crop top look, since you can make the top as short or long as you want. A loose, maxi- or midi-length skirt looks lovely with a short, fitted crop top. Look for one that sits above your belly button on your natural waist for a flattering look for all body types. Looser, high-waisted pants can also pair nicely with a short crop top. Nude or matching high heels or wedges are a must to make your crop top work for a nice party. Add elegance to the look with tasteful jewelry, like pearls or a thin necklace and bracelets. An all-black crop top plus dark leggings or jeans makes for a sleek look, perfect for a night of going out. Pair it with a sporty, zip-up jacket to cover up a bit more, and finish the look with some high black boots.

Summary:
Choose a printed top and bottom set for a put-together look. Try a tie-front top for a summery, more conservative look. Wear a long, loose skirt or high-waisted pants. Pair your crop top with heels or wedges. Accessorize with pretty jewelry. Go with a dark, fitted crop top and bottoms for a night out.
