Wondering what to wear when the brief is ‘jeans and a nice top’? We’ve got you covered

‘Jeans and a nice top’ is a phrase uttered in group chats all over the country. It’s the go-to style for an event that doesn’t have a dress code, where you want to look put together but still casual and comfy. It’s the ultimate day-to-night, the perfect brunch attire, and one you can wear multiple ways. Without further ado, here are some ways you can make it work.

Denim

Naturally, the first port of call is a good pair of jeans. Whether you’re a straight leg fan or forever loyal to your super skinnies, there is no one-style-fits-all when it comes to jeans and a nice top. But the shape you choose can influence the sort of top you wear – a flowy blouse and a skinny jean? Gorgeous. A fitted top over a wide leg jean? Spectacular!

Ribcage straight ankle jeans, Levi’s (€130)
Grá jeans, Méid Denim (€80)
Luxury high waisted wide leg, Marks & Spencer (€77)
Comfort stretch mom jeans, Next (€34)

Nice tops

The best part about this style is that really any top can be a ‘nice top’ it’s all about your personal taste. Dress a plain top up with a statement necklace, or even tuck a short dress into your jeans for a versatile way to work your wardrobe.
