#1 A woman’s fashion: The strapless top

Strapless tops are simple but effective. Usually reserved for nighttime or daytime formal wear, the strapless top is a great choice for the warmer months when you won't miss the extra material. Go for a simple one-color look with a body-hugging shape for maximum impact.

#2 A woman’s fashion: The one shoulder top

The asymmetrical look really gives one shoulder tops a quirky, fun sensibility. The one shoulder top is a great choice for a fun, lighthearted outing like a Sunday in the park or a daytime concert or music festival. Some stripes or a bold print will complete the look.

#3 A woman’s fashion: Vests and camis

Vests and camis are a bankable favorite when you want a cute look for summer, say for a day at the beach. They can look ultra-girly with a loose fit and a flowery print, or more sleek, modern and athletic with a body-hugging fit and stripes.

#4 A woman’s fashion: The T-shirt

What can you say about the T-shirt that hasn't been said a million times before? Not much! Except that they're a casual tops fashion classic on par with the mighty blue jeans. Grab a graphic print for a fun look, or opt for a looser fit and some frills for more of a pretty/girly look. Either way you'll look great.

#5 A woman’s fashion: The tunic top

Tunics are so versatile, they're always a safe bet if you're not sure how formal you want to be. Perfect for a date or a night out with the girls, they also combine really well with almost any accessories. We like the look of a close-fitting tunic in a colorful fabric with some chunky jewelry, but try your own ideas – you'll find it's pretty hard to go wrong!

#6 A woman’s fashion: Shirts and blouses

Shirts and blouses are, of course, a wardrobe staple, especially for work wear and smart casual and formal ensembles. You can never have too many of these tops! Keep a couple in basic black and flat white, and some with a colorful pattern or print too.
