Name a better duo than jeans and a chic top. When I don’t know what to wear, I’ll always rely on the trusty outfit formula to look pulled together and polished. The key this season is to make sure your top has some extra special pizzazz. This is especially perfect for a going-out look or event when you want to make a statement in an effortless way.
One of this season’s biggest trends leans into opulence and decadence—think detailed textures, embroidery, beading, rich color, fringe, tapestry, velvet, and silk—looks reminiscent of the glitz and glam of the roaring twenties. These pieces are perfect to pair with basic jeans for a look that feels cool, luxe, and unique. I’ve been spotting some excellent tops on the internet this month that exude a *very special* look. Whether it’s intricate embroidery, beading, or a sleek silhouette, these pieces are guaranteed to make a statement and incite all the compliments.
