29 Elevated (Yet Affordable) Tops That'll Make Your Skinny Jeans Look So Good
When in doubt: Wear a pair of jeans. That's pretty much my motto when it comes to outfit conundrums and it's served me well over the years. That's why I'm always on the lookout for cute tops that will look great when paired with jeans—and I certainly struck gold in my latest search.
Our Who What Wear Collection designers have perfected the art of the cute top, including a cutout bodysuit, a satiny blouse, a cozy button-up sweater, and even a pretty bustier. Below, I've rounded up my favorite tops that will all look fantastic with any pair of jeans you already own. What could be easier than that? Oh, and nothing on my list costs more than $135, so you can look stylish while staying at a reasonable price point.
For winter, try layering this bustier under a second-skin turtleneck top.
This would also look cute unbuttoned and styled with our bustier top underneath.
Next, Hailey Bieber wore the new platform Uggs that will sell out by December.

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern in 2011—back when the site only published a single story per day. (We have since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC and lives in Los Angeles. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2015, where she is now the Associate Director of Fashion News. From the Oscars to the Met Gala, she leads the site's entire red carpet coverage strategy. She specializes in celebrity and fashion news but also enjoys writing travel features and runway reports. She frequently contributes to WWW's social accounts and has a sizable following on her personal TikTok.
