Date-Night Outfits Stylish Women Swear By
Sure, a little black dress might be a staple for date nights, but why not change it up the next time you grab a drink with your new Bumble match? Instead of one-piece, throw a cool top into the mix. Paired with everything from jeans to high-waisted wide-leg trousers to a miniskirt, date-night tops need to strike that perfect balance of daring and stylish so you can look and feel your best.
If you’re wondering what top to wear on a date, we’ve done the legwork and handpicked 18 styles you would find in the closets of fashion girls. From romantic satin blouses and flirty ruffled versions to bustiers and crop tops, there’s one that will work no matter what your personal style is. You can mix in some of the season’s biggest trends, like polka dots and structured silhouettes, or stick to a more classic silhouette you can pull out season after season.
