6 Comfy White Tank Tops We Love From Old Navy, Skims, Amazon & More

White Tank Tops

Landing on the *perfect* white tank top can be quite the tricky task. You don’t want one that’s uncomfortable, and certainly not one that’s see-through – especially in the wake of summertime! White tank tops can range from more formal styles to everyday lounge pieces, but we think the best ones land right in between the two ends of the style spectrum.

We’ve got a short list of helpful criteria when shopping for white tank tops:

  • Secure fit – no slipping straps or sagging necklines
  • Coverage – no nip-slips
  • Easy to style – can be dressed up or down depending on the context
  • Affordable – staple tank tops should *not* break the bank
Since white tank tops come in an endless variety of cuts, lengths, and materials, we’ve compiled only the best here in our list of editor- and shopper-loved pieces. Your dream summer capsule wardrobe awaits!

Old Navy

Old Navy Ultra-Crop Rib-Knit Tank Top

This cotton-polyester rib knit tank has a trendy square neck design plus some wide straps which help facilitate some impressive coverage all-around. The hem hits around the natural waist to flatter your figure further and the material is not see-through at all.

This $6 Old Navy tank comes in a ton of colors and sizes XS-4X – B+C Creative Assistant, Meredith, has already purchased five different ones in the past month.

Everlane

Everlane The Organic Cotton Cutaway Tank

Amazon

Pinkmstyle Square Neck Tank

This white tank has a 4.3 star rating on Amazon, with nearly 700 5-star reviews.

It's crafted from a buttery-soft and stretchy material in a double-layer design to keep you covered at all times.

The Pinkmstyle Square Neck Tank comes in a handful of other colors and sizes S-XXL on sale now for $17 (was $25).

Uniqlo Ribbed Cropped Sleeveless Bra Top

If coverage around your chest is a main concern when you're shopping for white tank tops, you'll be amazed by this pick from Uniqlo. It features soft built-in bra cups, but they don't feel too invasive – just cozy! The cups eliminate potential for nipping or any see-through-ness, which boosts your confidence with every outfit.

After seeing Sabrina Carpenter’s bold Jacquemus look for Vogue World in Paris, I instantly wanted to steal her look. Her red and white striped get-up is chic, colorful, and so coastal, perfect for any seaside vacation I wish I could be taking right now (a mountain girl can dream, okay?).

Given the undeniably strong pull of her fashion influence (Google searches for “red and white striped dress” spiked recently), I just know the girlies will be on the hunt for the perfect frock to match Sabrina’s energy.

Look no further than these striped dresses that embody the serene seaside through breezy linens and feminine fits. These striped dresses make for the cutest vacation outfits around – simply slide one on with your favorite sandals and sunnies, and you’re ready to stroll along the beach or sit down at your go-to dinner destination.

Mango

Mango Bare Shoulders Striped Dress

This striped dress can be worn off both shoulders or as one-shoulder neckline, thanks to its versatile bowtie design. The 100% cotton fabric lands around a midi length, hitting right under the knees. More than anything, it's certifiably comfortable since it follows a straight silhouette, so it'll billow beautifully in the breeze as you sip down your fave beachside cocktail.

The Mango Bare Shoulders Striped Dress comes in sizes 0-20 for $60 (was $80).

Nordstrom

Edikted Mango Bare Shoulders Striped Dress

Strapless dresses like this one were made for an oceanside getaway. You get breeziness from the exposed shoulders and collarbone, while the rest of the garment falls down to your mid-calf. This pick even has a cheeky slit that runs along the back, shaping your bod in the most flattering way. It's made from a 45% polyester, 45% rayon, and 10% spandex blend, so it stretches with you.

The Edikted Mango Bare Shoulders Striped Dress is available to shop in sizes S-XL for $62 at Nordstrom.

Reformation

Reformation Nonie Dress

Reformation dresses are truly to die for, and this sailor-esque style is no exception! It flaunts so many cute details, from the puff sleeves to pleated bodice. I'm especially a sucker for its lacy collar. This 50% cotton, 50% viscose dress buttons all the way up and ties in the back to further shape your look around the waist. This striped dress would look adorable with some simple ballet flats to channel a very European vibe.

Sovere Rhythm Stripe Mix Dress

I'm really obsessed with drop-waist dresses right now. They're super elongating and flattering on anyone! This one is uniquely cool because it looks like two separate pieces, when it's just one long dress. Plus, the tank-style top is high-coverage, so you won't have to make many adjustments to your outfit throughout the day. This pick will give you a more understated striped look while still looking nicely nautical. The top half boasts a knit feel, and the skirt is a lot breezier.

Kohl's

Sonoma Goods For Life Belted Knit Dress

This easy-to-wear cotton modal midi is begging to be worn with your coolest gold earrings and some comfy sandals. It's nicely loose-fitting, but cinches along the waist with an attached tie belt.

As much as I'm in the SydCarmy camp when it comes to romantic relationships on The Bear (I’m so sorry to all the Carmy x Claire shippers), there’s one friendship in the hit FX show that I think outshines the rest. While Fak and Sugar perfectly complement each other, and Tina and Ebra are on exactly the same page, Richie and Sydney have become my favorite friendship on The Bear.

FX/Hulu

What starts on a very rocky foundation at the beginning of The Bear season 1, due to poor communication and knowing exactly how to push each other's buttons, a frustrating coworker situation quickly evolves into a friendship with mutual understanding and respect.

"I love the relationship between Sydney and Richie," one Reddit user agrees. "Their characters are avatars for progress and tradition so it makes sense that they would argue, but you can also see it in the moments they share when they're not arguing...They exert an interesting push-pull dynamic on Carmy who's still too caught up in dealing with trauma from his old job and his brother's death to really parse out what he wants from each of them and become the leader the kitchen needs."

Do they still get on each other's nerves? Absolutely. But instead of yelling at each other (or, you know, threateningly holding up giant steak knives), Richie and Sydney understand one another. They're able to provide advice or comfort when they see the other upset, like Richie apologizing to Sydney when his and Carmy's fighting gets under her skin, or Sydney telling Richie everything will be okay when his front of house speech is rockier than normal.

Ayo Edebiri/Instagram

And the fact that Ebon Moss-Bachrach and Ayo Edebiri have a similar friendship in real life (like the fact Ebon texted her "Every birthday is a small death" on her birthday)? That’s just the cherry on top.

What is your favorite relationship on The Bear? Do you think Richie and Sydney make a good pair? Let us know all your thoughts on The Bear on Facebook!
