Since our new school district begins at the beginning August, instead of the end of August, I find myself constantly switching between trying to savor the shorter summer and planning for back to school mode. This includes how my wardrobe can change. Today I will show you how to style a white tank, a summer staple, for both summer and fall.

I was thinking before that white tank top was boring and a waste of money. I had no idea how to use basics to create outfits. Eventually, I learned how to mix and match and now I love being able to utilize basics!

This tank top material is a medium thickness and has a decently flattering silhouette. It is mildly see-through, so you’ll want to wear a nude-colored bra with it.

I’m going to show you three ways to style it—two for summer and one for early fall as we head back to school!

#1

White Tank + Jeans Shorts + Sandals
This outfit is perfect for hanging out with the kids, attending a low-key gathering with friends, or just spending a regular, casual day at home when you want to feel somewhat put together.

#2

White Tank + Skirt (solid colored or printed with white in it)

White tank perfectly matches with a skirt! This is one of my go-to combos because it works with sooooo many types of skirts. Try it with a one-color skirt, or with a printed skirt. It looks perfect with both.

#3

White Tank + Boyfriend Jeans + Utility Jacket
Once weather starts to cool, change your denim shorts for a pair of jeans and complete your look with a utility jacket. This outfit is casual-cool for drop-offs and pick-ups with relaxed boyfriend jeans and footbed sandals.
