Jeans and a Nice Top: The Style Edit Edition

Remember when your friends asked you what you were going to wear last week to a birthday dinner? 9/10 your response was “jeans and a nice top”. Every girl knows those events or days when you want to look cute but feel like just wearing jeans and maybe not a skirt or dress (I know I definitely do). But weirdly, it’s so hard to dress up your jeans with just a top because sometimes picking the top is just as difficult as deciding something like who’s driving to the dinner. Down below are four different kinds of cute tops you can pair with your favorite denim when you’re just feeling a “jeans and a nice top” kinda day.

1. The Strapless Bustier

@lradwell

This currently trending top is a cute and flirty top that automatically dresses up any pair of jeans you own. They are sold basically everywhere and at different price points depending on what you’re looking for. This yellow bustier top above and the white below are both from OhPolly and if you’re on Instagram at all, you’ve probably seen them on every influencer. They may not seem as mainstream for the everyday girl but I promise you, it is my number one pick when I’m feeling a simple, uncomplicated outfit.

2. The Little White Crop

Recently, this staple shirt has been reinvented into a new fun and comfortable classic: the white crop. Brands worldwide have launched their take of the white crop in this past season and it's no longer a boring basic. Now, it’s the perfect addition to your favorite fitting jeans to dress up a look in a fast and extremely easy way. House of Cb and Verge Girl have the perfect take of the little white crop your closet NEEDS.

3. The New and Improved Bodysuit

Bodysuits have been trending for years now and every season a new staple bodysuit emerges. Recently, I’ve been loving bodysuits with a twist; ones that are not as traditional but still can be dressed up or down with my jeans. The best thing about bodysuits is how comfortable they are while still being probably the most flattering top you can wear with jeans or any pants. Missy Empire, Windsor, and PrettyLittleThing have the cutest and CHEAPEST bodysuits that keep you looking hot in your jeans.

4. The Strappy Back

@veregegirl

This look is perfect for a warmer day out or an evening watching the sunset because of how open the back of the top is. These white tops with strappy backs add a little flirt to the already so cute but basic front of the tops. It’s also super comfortable and convenient for when you’re not really feeling wearing a bra (so basically all the time). They work perfectly with any pair of jeans but look super cute with some light wash boyfriend denim. Verge Girl has a million styles of these tops and I bet you’ll definitely find one you love.

@charlottebridgeman

All of these tops are super comfortable, super cute, and most of them don’t even require a bra (thats the best part). So next time you’re looking for your go to jeans and a nice top outfit, think of maybe switching out your basic cropped tee for a strapless bustier or creative and cute bodysuit and give your “jeans and a nice top” look a whole different meaning. Happy shopping!!
