These Are The Five Top Styles That Go With Absolutely Everything

Here at Who What Wear, we’re all about investing in the wardrobe staples. Focusing on the core pieces that you will wear time and time again is, in our minds, the easiest and most fool-proof way to build a dream wardrobe. And when the summer months roll around, the top item on our minds is, well, tops.

Personally, I think finding the bottom half of your outfit requires the most work. You have to suss out what style, silhouette and fit best suits you. Do you prefer high hems or long? Billowing shapes or a more structured fit? Having put in the work to sort that half out, you want to make sure you have a good variety of tops to keep them feeling fresh and fashionable. Luckily, particularly in summer, the best and most stylish tops tend to be the simplest.

The five top categories I’ve pulled here are the ultimate wardrobe workhorses. Understated and versatile, they are your canvas with which you can build whatever look you want. Sure, a classic white t-shirt may look simple at first, but that top can transform depending on what you pair it with. Throw it on with the very on-trend Bermuda shorts and slides and you have an easy, breezy daytime look. Style it with a maxi slip skirt and strappy kitten heels, and you have an effortlessly cool evening look.
