For the time being, I'm exchanging T-shirts for this budget-friendly elevated basic.
While I enjoy a good t-shirt and wear them frequently, it can become a bit dull. However, Hailey Bieber has unintentionally reminded me that it's time to bring out my tank tops again (and maybe buy a few new ones). While in L.A. this past weekend, Bieber sported a stylish basic from the '90s: a boatneck tank. Switching out a t-shirt or scoop-neck tank for a boatneck version can instantly elevate your outfit, making it appear more chic and sophisticated. I can't quite explain it—it just happens that way. Despite its upscale look, there is a wide range of affordable boatneck tanks available in various colors and materials (although my favorite is a nice structured knit). If Bieber's style has inspired you to get a new elevated basic, keep scrolling to shop my top picks for boatneck tank tops from popular brands.
