Top for 'jeans and a nice top' outfit help

[Daisypod]

Out with friends for pre Christmas drinks at the weekend and even though I am early 40's I have never been able to dress for an occasion like this. I always end up in reasonable jeans and a logo/band t shirt as that's what I have been comfortable in and too scared to do anything else, it has been my uniform for the past 25 years!
So I want to wear nice new black jeans but need help finding a top.
I am a size 18-20 and very lumpy 🙁 so it needs to be at least hip length and not clingy. I will also need to be able to wear a decent bra as an F cup, so nothing strapped.
I want to look stylish and a bit trendy but everyone find in shops doesn't seem right.
I am so fed up of wha I usually wear please help!

How about something like this - a simple shape, flattering on bigger boobs because of the v-neck, doesn't look clingy.

I just searched Debenhams website for going out tops. Seen a few I want now, too!

What style of jeans do you wear? That would give a good idea as to what top would look nice.

Thanks @CrazySheepLady but I worry that might look a bit old (sorry if that offends 🙁)

@BusterGonad usually straight leg or skinny but not mega skinny. My legs aren't too bad and I am 5' 9 So quite long legs and I will be wearing flats.

What about ASDA? They are doing well with their George range recently 😍

Oh I like the second one @ThisCharmingMam off to Asda later!

That Asda one looks nice, good length too!

What is your budget. Three years ago I bought a gold lace long sleeved top from Boden. It was £99 got it 20% discount. Wasn't sure thought it might be a bit meh! I've just got it back from the dry cleaners this morning and it's getting ready for its third seaons. It goes with so many things including jeans. I saw this and it would be what I would buy if I needed to replace it. I'm not big Boden fan but this top is just on right side of sparkly- will try and find a pic of the one I have

Loads in Wallis today. Absolutely loads!

I suggest this top all threads where posters are looking for non clingy tops to wear with jeans. I think a blazer style jacket or dressy cardigan can be more elongating that a a top with jeans. I am 5,7 it's hip length on me.

Thanks @Helpmepleasenow48 but biggest size available is 14.
@Lidlfix I don't think I would get away with my big scaffolding bra under that.
See I am not easy to shop for!

What about this black and red are nice? Lace skims over lumps and bumps and is festive

This one looks like it would be very flattering!
