Fashion can be loud. Bold prints, punchy colours, and fleeting trends often steal the spotlight. But here’s the truth: it’s the quiet, hard-working basics that really hold a wardrobe together. I used to chase statement pieces, eye-catching dresses, “it” shoes—and still felt like I had nothing to wear. Sound familiar?
These days, I’ve flipped the script. My rails are now lined with timeless, mix-and-match essentials. And the MVP? Without a doubt, the vest top.
Whether you call it a tank or a vest, this humble piece is having its moment. From off-duty influencers to luxury labels (Loewe’s logo tank, anyone?), everyone’s showing it some love. The key to keeping it fresh? Styling it in new, unexpected ways. Below, discover seven low-effort outfit formulas that prove the vest top can take you everywhere this summer.
