1. Sequins
Style Notes: Party season means one thing: sequins. Give an embellished top an edgy overhaul by styling it with classic blue denim, a clutch, and undone hair. Take it fromBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing 's con, Monikh Dale.

2. Bardot
Style Notes: Off-the-shoulder tops are the elegant style that keeps on giving. Keep things simple (and a little festive) this season by pairing yours with embellished jeans and ballet flats. A very French approach to party dressing.
Shop the Look:
2. Sheer
Style Notes: A-list-adored designer Nensi Dojaka is making sheer fabrics chic again. Camille Charrière is snapped here in one of the brand's tulle party tops paired perfectly with loose-fitting black jeans.
Shop the Look:
3. Bustier
Style Notes: Hark back to the noughties with the classic bustier top. Make like Sylvie Mus, and style yours with high-waisted jeans and kitten heels.
Shop the Look:
The embroidery makes this look so premium.
4. Silk Satin
Style Notes: Sometimes, less is more in the party-top stakes, and Marisa Martins makes a very good case for the cream satin blouse. Keep it low-key with a trench or, for a dressier look, opt for a classic black blazer.
Shop the Look:
5. Leopard
Style Notes: No one has a knack for giving outfits a sultry spin quite like Anne-Laure Mais does. Make like the French It girl by wearing a fitted leopard top with fitted jeans, slingback heels and leather outerwear.
Shop the Look:
Reformation has so many tempting party tops right now, and this one is top of the wish list.
Slim leg black jeans can be the base for so many cool party outfits.
