This winter—and every winter, really—having long tops to wear with leggings can transform a frozen day into something quite elegant. These aren’t your basic top: A long blouse can elevate an outfit, determine the entire look’s silhouette, and allow for your favorite leggings to take on a much more interesting role.
But each top speaks in a different language—one with sharp lines will create a much different aesthetic than a romantic, layered blouse, for example. And when the temperature drops, creativity rises. It is possible to build looks that are full of personality but also warm and functional. Long blouses and leggings strike that balance: It’s a combination that has presence without overdoing it and offers the kind of balance that allows you to have fun with the styling.
Below, we’ve found several long tops to wear with leggings this winter. Each tells a different story, but all are suitable for the cold weather.
