Not a Sweater or a Blouse—This Top Trend Is the Key to Chicer Winter Outfits

During the warmer months of the year, it's quite easy to figure out what to wear when you want your outfits to look special. It's significantly more difficult in the winter, when dressing for warmth must also be a priority, depending on where you live. Sure, you can always just wear a sweater, but knitwear doesn’t dress up and elevate your outfit in the way another winter top trend does. I was inspired to highlight said trend because Chase Sui Wonders, who has made quite a few red carpet appearances lately, just wore it on multiple occasions in one week.

The trend I’m referring to is button-front jackets, but worn as tops. They’re thicker and has more structure than, say, a button-front blouse, and can be made of a myriad of materials—from tweed to velvet to leather. On each occasion that Wonders has worn button-front jackets as tops over the past week, she paired them with a black miniskirt, tights, and pumps. Feel free to copy her repeated outfit formula for winter occasions to come in which you need to dress up a bit.
