The glamorous touch? Focus on a model with rips or faded.
Blazer + crop top
Star style, in Levi’s 501? The combo of the oversized blazer on the 90s bandeau crop-top is one of the most popular. Need to focus on a pair of jeans with a medium or high waist, to leave only a hint of belly uncovered, with gusto. On the feet, the vintage sneakers of the moment, but also a kitten heel stiletto, to make the look suitable even for the evening.
