The biggest concern with layering is looking bulky and sloppy. To make a tank top worn as an outer layer look good, choosing the right cut for the T-shirt underneath is key. Skip overly loose, drop-shoulder styles and opt for a body-hugging fitted design as your base layer. A fitted inner layer keeps the overall silhouette clean and sharp under a tank top. It can flatter your proportions and make you look slimmer instantly, while preventing the heavy look of two tops bunching together.

This approach opens up endless possibilities for everyday outfits, giving every old piece a chance to feel new again for spring and summer.
