There are those tops that are true investments – the ones that make an outfit and will go with any number of bottoms. This classic Lanvin draped top (on Net-a-Porter for $990) comes back each season (you’re lucky if you can catch it on sale!). For Resort it comes in my favorite color – something I will wear and wear and wear. Here are three looks to work it into – casual, cocktail, and formal. This blouse goes a long way, and even though it’s grand, you’ll get more wear out of it than 5 $200 shirts without the couture look and feel.

Bag Snob Essentials Emma Transition Bali Ombre Waxed Leggings: Of course it goes perfectly with our ombre Snob Essentials x DL1961 jeans (at Neiman Marcus for $178), but any dark denim will do the job!

Tibi Leather and Cotton-Canvas Pencil Skirt: This super amazing leather white pencil skirt (on Net-a-Porter for $595) is a fresh look that can go from cocktail to dinner to night out.

Donna Karan Ruched Jersey Skirt: Take the top formal with a ruched Donna Karan staple skirt (on Net-a-Porter for $486.50) – another piece that will serve you well, and lucky us, it’s on sale!
