As soon as the calendar flips over to May, I'm itching to bust out all of my favorite summery white tops. There's something so perfect about a crisp white blouse paired with jeans or denim shorts—a truly fail-safe combo if you ask me. If you're looking to upgrade your own collection, I have a few suggestions I think you'll cherish as much as I do. 

As much as I love a minimalist version, right now I'm gravitating toward white tops with interesting details. Staud's Luna Balloon-Sleeve Open-Back Cotton-Blend Top ($209), for instance, has a beautiful open back, balloon sleeves, and a peplum hemline that makes it an anything-but-boring option. H&M's Blouse With Eyelet Embroidery ($30) looks way more expensive than its wallet-friendly price tag. Below, I styled a similar top with jeans, Mary Jane flats, and an acetate bag, and I'll definitely be relying on that exact outfit for the rest of summer. Scroll down to shop my favorite white tops on the market right now.

Erin Fitzpatrick
Senior News Editor

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 12 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of senior news editor (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
