Make like Hannah in a criss cross crop top

She's the new host of Project Runway Junior, so for a recent award show in New York, Hannah Davis flaunted her sartorial prowess.

The Sports Illustrated model wore an ensemble from Donna Karan's Spring 2015 catwalk that included a crop top and a high-waisted pencil skirt with a bolero jacket draped over her shoulders. She completed her fashion forward outfit with a pair of nude Giuseppe Zanotti pumps.

Hannah's sexy top was made of organza and criss crossed in the front for a very revealing and alluring look. Take a cue from the baseball WAG and team a daring number like this a midi length skirt or tailored trousers and you'll hit the nail on the head.
