White Tanks





 Tank: Zara
Skirt: ASOS (Similar)
Shoes: Steve Madden (Here)
Clutch: Gift
Earrings: Vintage
Belt: Jewelry Boutique (Miami, FL)













Hey Loves

A simple white tank is one of the sexiest and most versatile pieces that a girl can own. Lately, I like pairing mine with bright colored jeans or pencil skirts. It really is a super easy combo to put together when you're trying to get ready in a rush. For me, outfits like this usually get pulled out on date nights. It goes something like this: husband makes reservations, I throw on every item in my closet and, an hour later, I stand in the middle of a monstrous pile of clothes saying "I have nothing to wear." Then, husband stands in the middle of the doorway with keys in hand and says "we're gonna miss our reservation." I reach for a white tank, pencil skirt, some sky high heels and watch impatient husband's jaw drop. Feel free to use this tip to shush the sweetie pie in your life :)

The Tank:
I love Zara tank tops. They really stand the test of time. This one has been washed a million times and still looks great.  My advice would be find a brand you like and buy in bulk when sale season rolls around.

Love,
Jillian


* Update: I'm wearing Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in "Kiss Me Coral". The color looks very bright in the container, but it looks amazing when you put it on. Just add some clear gloss and blot to blend the color.
