It’s the not-so-secret outfit formula that knows no bounds and that’s been uttered across WhatsApp groups, Facebook groups and group chats, for years: jeans and a nice top. It’s the gift that keeps on giving, and the reason it’s so prolific is that it’s versatile, easy and dependable. And yes, party season might not look the same this year, but trust us when we say that this perennial pairing still has plenty of mileage.
Work Zoom party coming up? Planning a stay-in date night? A fancy-top-and-jeans is just what you need: Comfy, easy to throw on and yet still offers a polished finish. Whatever your budget, this season, there’s definitely a fancy top (or 14) for everyone, and we’re sure that you’ll have them on rotation through winter and beyond.
