This One, Perfect Style Piece Will Totally Transform Your Closet

WHAT: Anthropologie Maeve Racerback Tank

WHY: Yes. It’s a tank top. But it’s not ANY tank top. It’s this glorious one by Maeve. Behold her glory below and then we will discuss, in excruciating detail, why she is so perfect.

First, address yourself to the straps. They are thin. Thinner straps juxtaposed with a wide/strong shoulder is gorgeous. It just is. When we wear thick straps they can tend to thicken the look of our upper bodies, so finding thin straps in a tank is key.

Second, gaze upon the STRAIGHT NECKLINE. I’m sorry I’m screaming at you in all caps but it’s that important. A straight neckline, as you can see, is perhaps the most flattering neckline of all time. It’s so effortlessly classic, it will always be “in style” (whatever that even means), it makes both tiny boobs and big boobs look their best, and for whatever reason it sort of jzusjzes (sp?) up the tank such that you can now wear it to basically an event and look totally put together. Truly you can wear pearls with it and you’ll basically be ready for La Boheme at The Met.

Maeve is one of Anthropologie’s in-house brands, and we are always drawn to their stuff. They almost always come out with extended sizing, nearly everything they make is extremely stretchy and/or ribbed which translates into exquisitely flattering and form fitting (while never tipping into that bodycon TOO tight look) and whatever genius designs this brand, really understands a woman’s body and how we want to look and feel.

Did we buy this tank top in all colors with our own money and justify it as “research?” We sure did.

Tell us which color you’re getting in the comments. If only one, we highly, highly encourage you to consider the stripe. Paired with these, the single most flattering jeans possibly on planet earth and white sneaks? Well, you’ve just made yourself the perfect spring/summer outfit that’s supremely comfortable but also makes you do that double take in any reflective surface where you just know…you look really good.

PRICE: $38-$48
