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 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 comfortable, 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 the clothes, it will be noticeable.
3. Comfy Sweatshirt
Summer night, especially at the end of August, can be pretty chilly at times. Therefore, everyone needs a light-some piece of clothes, that will keep you 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 the most important task here is to find your perfect white collar shirt, that 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 party top in her fashion arsenal. For the days, when you don't feel like planning your outfit, or simply when you are in 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 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 blazer 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.
Lots of love,
