16 “Going Out” Tops That Will Only Appeal To You If You Have Used The Term “Going Out” Tops
by The Candidly Team
Do you remember a time when getting ready to go out was merely a matter of throwing on a single top?
A top that had been deemed “fancy” and cute and flattering enough to be the whole outfit.
There was no “look” being created. No “fashion story” being told. Just whatever jeans you were already wearing and that. one. top.
Obviously, we were not alone in this.
And we know, it wasn’t always perfect.
But it was so blissfully easy, wasn’t it?
And we miss that ease. Just throwing on one thing and knowing we looked good. That we were done.
In recent years, many women and fashion editors alike have declared that the going-out top simply stopped existing. And we must agree, as humans looking for clothes, the selection has long seemed both slim and sad.
But we think we may have reached a turning point.
Because when we set out to find a few, not just decent, but excellent, timeless, well-fitting, chic, exciting going-out tops this very day, we honestly weren’t sure we’d succeed.
But, my friends. We found 16.
Unlike the tops of the 2000s that were sequined and stitched to fit a very specific time and trend, each of these 16 is classic and alluring in a way that we think will stand the test of time.
But let’s show, not tell, shall we? Here they are.
