One of the easiest ways to keep your tank top work-appropriate is to pair it with tailoring, just like this look from Bottega Veneta’s FW22 collection. Whether it’s with a pair of tailored trousers or underneath a sharp blazer, it’s an easy way to incorporate something comfy into your corporate outfit.

Recreate the Bottega Veneta look by starting with a pair of classic black pants. We love these high waisted pants, as they are more flattering, and we opted to keep the look office appropriate with sensible pumps, a roomy tote and a mauve-coloured lipstick.

What’s one unexpected way to remix your tank top? Wear it underneath a dress! Before you balk at wearing layered outfits in our hot weather, hear us out: the trick is working with lightweight and airy materials. This Jil Sander look demonstrates that perfectly, and gives you this gorgeously breezy ensemble to recreate.

Unlike Jil Sander’s look, we opted to go a step further with the remixing, and pump up the colour by choosing a hot pink sleeveless dress! It’s a fabulous and fuss-free way to look more dressed up for casual occasions. Play up that casually chic look with an adorable bucket bag and kitten heels.

Here’s another outfit idea to work your tank top for those off-duty OOTDs: wear it in an all-white outfit! This runway look from Hermes’ SS22 shows how fresh and fun the look can be. It’s the perfect blend of sporty chic, and can be dressed up with fun jewellery.

The thing about all white is that you can always layer different shades of white to create more visual depth. Think smoky white meets optic white meets off-white! A bit of sparkle and glimmer goes a long way, which is why we’ve opted to finish the look with gold hardware and statement earrings too.

Lastly, if you’re in need of a quick outfit to throw on, this Loewe look is going to suit! Here’s the best part: you can wear it to run errands or to a fancy dinner, depending on how you accessorise it!

For an off-duty look, sneakers will go superbly well with this look. We also like the idea of wearing statement hoops to give your casual get up a little bit more zhush, but if you swap the sneakers for strappy stilettos, you’re all set to head out to dinner.
