How to Wear a White Tank or Tee for Comfort & Simplicity

White tanks and tees have been a wardrobe staple for many decades, so how can they be trending? It seems that they have been showing up all over the streets since quarantine was over. Comfort and simplicity had taken over our lives by then and it seems we won’t let it go. I’ve been noticing that even I, who never wanted to wear the same outfit twice, have been gravitating to my most comfortable clothes. Over the summer, I enjoyed the ease and flow of skirts, dresses and kaftans more than ever before. And during the winter, I love to bundle up in chunky knits, hygge style. So today I am focusing on how to wear a white tank or tee, basics that we all most likely have. I hope you use these outfit ideas to dress up your white tees or dress down your suits, skirts and such. Age doesn’t matter.

As you consider the following outfit combinations, please be sure your white tanks and tees are in your most becoming shade of white. Not everyone looks good in pure white. So you might like to add a tank and tee in ecru, ivory or cream if you don’t already own your perfect hue.

I have broken down the different ways to wear a white tank or tee into three sections below:  with a skirt, with jeans and more.

11 Different Ways to Wear a White Tank or Tee With a Skirt

1. A white tee or tank works with a maxi skirt to elevate the tee and dress down the maxi. You might then want to add a statement necklace and/or bangles. If cool, top with a denim jacket.
2. A white tank or tee goes great with an animal-print skirt. Add sneakers. Or, you might want to belt it and add sandals. Safari-style bangles would work perfectly with this outfit. If cool, top with a jean jacket.
3. Tuck a white tank into a black skirt. Add a cardigan or jacket + black knee-high boots.
4. Tuck a white tee into a printed maxi skirt. Add a long cross pendant and boots.
