CÉLINE Sunglasses // ROKSANDA Top (also available in white) // RAG & BONE Jeans // J.W. ANDERSON Bag

You know those moments when nothing in your closet seems to be looking quite right? This usually happens to me when I’m pinched for time and scrambling at the last minute to put something together. These are the times when I almost always reach for this top. It’s my when-in-doubt-put-this-on top. It goes with everything (jeans, skirts, you name it) and can easily be dressed up or down. (I love it so much that it might be worth ordering in blue, too.) It’s the kind of top that can take me from the office to dinner with girlfriends to a cocktail party. (I can’t wait to wear it with these pants for a party I’m going to next week.)

With holiday parties right around the corner, having a couple of hero tops you can turn to in a pinch is a good idea. When I was ordering this one from My Theresa (it arrived on my doorstep in less than 48 hours!), I came across a number of other cute options that are worth a look – including this one, this one (such a smart spend!), this one, and this one.
