I’ve been a stylist for almost ten years, so I’d like to think that when it comes to putting clothes together I know a thing or two. Even so, I still have those moments, either in the morning or post-work, pre-dinner or drinks, where I find myself staring at my wardrobe without any inspiration at all.
It’s in those moments, though, that I’ve learned to not be afraid of falling back on old faithfuls. They’re called that for a reason after all. It might be my favourite midi dress and ankle boots, or the power suit I know I feel great it. More often than not, however, it’s jeans and a nice top. It’s a winning combination that just works for so many occasions, and most importantly it never feels too dressy or too casual, which is particularly helpful for those outings where the dress code isn’t obvious. Drinks at the pub? First date? Zoom call? Working lunch? Hen do? Best friend’s birthday? Throw on a cute top and your go-to denim and you’re covered.
So, as an ode to this hero wardrobe pairing, and to make your lives much easier during this strange trans-seasonal time, below I’ve pulled together six of the best nice top + jeans outfits that I’ve come across recently, and shopped them out. From elevated shirting to mid-riff baring styles (grab your blazer or coat on the way out)—keep scrolling to see and shop the looks now.
