Southern Designer Spotlight: Annie Etzel

One of my favorite parts of fashion blogging is discovering new local up and coming designers. Annie Etzel is an LSU apparel design student who made her NOLA Fashion Week debut as one of this year’s emerging designers. When I started working with her, I immediately fell in love with this crop top and its sleeves. I knew I had to feature it.

Styling Tip: A crop top is great to pair with high-waisted elastic pants like these. Other types of tops tend to make my patterned pants look like pjs. They are quite comfy, so a pair of pumps and jewelry are another easy way to dress them up a bit.
