Rocking Around the Christmas Tree Part II: Holiday Top Edition

...any suggestions though on festive tops to wear with jeans for more casual holiday parties? I have a lot of those this year and nothing to wear!

Dear sm and mighty, obvi I have suggestions! So continuing our guide to holiday party wear. Here are some tops fit for a more casual holiday soiree. Once again, I like nice jewel tones for a holiday party, or silvers and golds are always festive. When doing just a top with jeans, I like my top to have a nice detail to make the outfit more interesting, be it a frill or a pleat. And if these options seem a little bare and chilly for your tastes, a) suck it up, looking hot isn't easy, or b) pair the top with an embellished cardigan or a plain cardigan paired with a skinny belt to give you a winning look.
