I Need New Summer Tops—36 Chic and Easy Styles I'd Wear With Jeans and Shorts


Summer is my favorite season, so you'd be right in thinking I've already been adding some of the coolest warm-weather styles to my wardrobe. What I desire right now are chic, easy, and versatile summer tops that will see me through the sweltering summer heat in style, tops I can easily pair with my denim shorts, jeans, linen bottoms, and skirts. I did what I do best and went on a deep dive and made this list of my absolute favorite summer tops out there right now. Included are a variety of styles and silhouettes—from trending halters to floaty embroidered blouses to staple tank tops and graphic tees. There's something for every budget, so if you, too, want to add chic new tops to your wardrobe this season, then take a peek below at some of the best styles the internet has to offer.
After seeing influencer @rubylyn_ wearing this top, I now need it too.
I tried this on recently, and I can 100% recommend.
