White tops are so fun to mix and match with everything in your wardrobe, but sometimes a plain white tee can get boring. 

Since summer is the season of the white top (nothing better for showing off a real or faux tan), I thought it was time to upgrade my white top stash a bit. So, below I’ve listed the four different types of white tops you need to have in your wardrobe for maximum outfit options:

1. The Cropped Top

Products: Top – H&M, Bottoms – Madewell, Necklace – Forever 21, Bag – H&M, Shoes – DSW

This outfit is great for a day out shopping, or any place where you want to be comfortable but still look put-together. Instead of the basic white tee you might normally pair with this look, a smocked crop top with ruffles is a minimal yet girly pick that’s perfect for the summer season.

Since you will be on your feet all day, some comfy sneakers and a shoulder bag will keep you fuss-free! Finish with a simple and classic gold heart mini pendant necklace.

2. The Tie-Front Top

Products: Top – H&M, Bottoms – Abercrombie & Fitch, Backpack – ASOS, Shoes – Charlotte Russe, Bracelet – Forever 21, Earrings – Forever 21

This outfit is great for those one-day road-trips where you’ll be sitting in the car for a while but will be out and about after three hours. Tie-front tops always look effortlessly cool, especially when paired with classic jean shorts. 

Bringing a small backpack along to fill with your snacks, water bottle, etc. is so much more convenient than holding everything! I definitely recommend you go this route if you’re road-tripping.

Lastly, slip on some flip-flops for the ease of removal in the car. Also, if you are going to be walking a lot, I recommend bringing a pair of sneakers to wear after the car ride!
