When I was in college, I had drawers filled with going-out tops. If you needed to borrow a low-cut V-neck number or sequin camisole, it was my door that you knocked on. Nearly two decades and one pandemic later, I’m ready to be that person again — minus the hangovers. I’m craving sparkles and cutouts and shirts that show off my shoulders. It’s time to start dressing up again!
In honor of the return of girls’ night, bachelorette parties and crowded dance floors, we’ve rounded up 12 going-out tops that’ll put you in the mood to celebrate brighter days ahead.
