• Keyhole cutout at the high neck, edged with a delicate lace trim - the detail that makes this top do the talking without going overboard
• Ruched side seams run the length of the body, creating a gathered texture that moves with you rather than sitting flat against the skin
• Close-fitting long sleeves that extend to the wrist, keeping the silhouette sleek from shoulder to hem
• Cropped length sits just at the waistband, making it an easy tuck-free option for high-waisted bottoms
• The elastane content gives just enough stretch to keep everything in place through a full night out

The lace-trimmed keyhole is the centrepiece here - it gives the high neck an edge that a plain cut-out simply wouldn't. The ruching along the sides adds dimension without bulk, and the whole top skims the body in a way that feels considered rather than overdone. Styled as seen with wide-leg washed jeans and gold hoop earrings, it strikes the balance between dressed-up and effortless that works perfectly for a night out for drinks or a bar meet-up with friends. Swap the jeans for a mini skirt and strappy heels and the same top shifts into full going-out territory. It also layers neatly under a leather jacket when the temperature drops later in the evening. The cropped cut means it works best with high-waisted bottoms - keep the waistband visible and let the ruching do the rest.
