When getting our closets ready for the summer, we all want to make sure that we have some tried and true, stylish wardrobe staples that can handle the warmer weather. They need to be light and airy but also it would be amazing if they were versatile, hassle-free, and great layering pieces. Well, have no fear because this list includes 10 summer wardrobe staples that were made for the warmer months and are versatile as they are stylish.
Everyone should have at least one black tank top or camisole in their closet. If you’re like me you have many. I have so many of them because they are great layering pieces and also go with literally everything; as the color black often does. A classic blank tank top is great for layering under t-shirts for the gym or a day at the park. A black cami with a little bit of lace is great for layering under blazers or just left on its own for a romantic date night. They are also super light, and of course sleeveless, for the hottest of days and nights no matter what you’re doing. It’s important to keep cool.
