Nice tops to go with jeans. I'm 45.

Last night I was going out with a much younger work mate and really struggled to find a nice top to just throw on with some jeans. We were going to a pub and it was a rush job so I thought I'll wear jeans and a top. I ended up wearing that but it wasn't a good look. She of course has endless amounts of clothes Grin

The reason I struggled is that I mostly wear dresses. My nights out are with friends salsa jiving, going for a meal or to houses or to a pub. But I rarely wear jeans and a top. I wear trousers, jeggings and jeans at work though.

So has anyone seen a top that fits the bill? I hope to buy a few tbh. Plus will get some more jeans.

I'm 5 ft 8 and size 12/14. I was a good 14 as in just about fitted but have lost over a stone. Am aiming to get to a size 12. Am wearing a 14 for now. I'm hour glass. I like to wear colour and am caucasian, warm skin colour. Long dark hair. Blue/green eyes and all my own teeth Grin

TIA

Oh and I'm not wanting to try to look younger. I already look in my 30s but this isn't my aim.

I linked it in case anyone else wants to see? Looks nice and something different. I do prefer a lower neckline though. Showing off my half decent decolletage whilst it's still there Wink I have a few faint lines starting though.

That's a lovely website though Pompbear, I'd not heard of it before. Am browsing now. I've spotted a couple of possible Christmas gifts too.
