Getting dressed in the morning can be so stressful at times, especially when you have a pile of colorful t-shirts, which don't fit your basic wardrobe. Don't worry, as long as you've stocked up on a few essential tops for every occasion, you are ready for the summer season. I've rounded up seven must-have tops every woman should own to beat the summer heat with style. There will be only two major rules: minimum prints and maximum versatility. Keep your summer tops simple, because it is always easier to style humble pieces and mix them together.
#1. Crop Top
It is hard to imagine a hot summer day without a beautifully cropped top. Crop tops are more versatile than you might think and can be teamed with almost everything. For casual going out with your friends, choose a simple denim crop top. And for a romantic supper with your couple, pick one with floral embellishment.
#2. Tank Top
The very first and one of the most important is a tank top. Simply and comfortably, paired with skinny jeans and a pair of classic Converse – always a winning combination. Stay away from textured fabrics and sequins; otherwise, when you decide to wear a tank top under your clothes, it will be noticeable.
#3. Comfy Sweatshirt
Summer nights, especially at the end of August, can be pretty chilly at times. Therefore, everyone needs a light piece of clothing that will keep them warm and cozy. That's when a comfortable sweatshirt will come in handy. A stylish gray sweatshirt is the best alternative to your old sizeless hoodie or bomber.
#4. White Collared Shirt
Do you know anything more classy than a good old button-up shirt with a sharp collar? Me neither! The hardest and most important task here is to find your perfect white collar shirt, which will fit your body type and personality. For a classy look, tuck your shirt into a pair of straight jeans and wear a pair of loafers. You can always add a few statement accessories and combat boots to dress up your casual outfit.
#5. Camisole Top
Sleek, silky, and lightweight like a feather. Camisole top is the most feminine fashion item and a type of undergarment that you want to demonstrate to the world. Every woman needs one comfortable and charming camisole top with fine spaghetti straps in her closet. You can wear it with a pencil velvet skirt or together with straight black pants and nude pumps for a sexy night out look.
#6. Party Top
It is very hard to imagine a girl who doesn't have a flawless party top in her fashion arsenal. For the days when you don't feel like planning your outfit, or simply when you are in a hurry, you can always count on your good old party top. The style should be versatile: simple, neutral color, that fits your skin complexion, the minimum amount of decorations, and an original cut.
7. White Tee
And the very last, but the most essential and useful top is a classic white tee. You can never have enough plain white t-shirts in your closet. Planning to spend quality time with your family and kids? White tee and jeans are the answer. Going out with your relatives to a picnic party? A white t-shirt and crop shorts are the best options. Plan to have a business dinner? A white t-shirt and your favorite black leather jacket are what you need. Style options are endless! Find the one in a great cut that you can style with everything from a skirt to leggings.
Summary...
Alright, as the mercury climbs and the humidity thickens, having the right arsenal in your closet is key to staying cool and stylish. We hope a guide to these 7 must-have tops has given you some fresh ideas for tackling whatever summer throws your way. Now it is time to embrace the heat in all of its beauty (responsibly, of course!) and conquer it in comfort and style. Stay cool out there!
Lots of love,
