Updated: May 12, 2020

We are all aware that fast fashion is consuming more resources than it should and that is a threat to the planet to say the least.Fashion has become the second most polluting industry(after oil) and with the increasing demand for cheap trendy clothes,there is very little hope for us.The best option for us is to practice the principles of minimalism so that every time we reach out to buy that cute crop top we don’t really need or those uncomfortable pair of high heels that we will only wear for that one pic for the gram,we think twice! Keeping this theme in mind, I have brought together 7 different looks using the same versatile piece of clothing-a black tank top!We all have one,we all have worn it with jeans a gazillion times.Its time to switch things up a notch now!


1.The Layered Look:


Tired of wearing the same button up shirts/blouses to office? Master the art of layering! Put on a tank top over your formal shirt and create a new look in no time with zero fuss. For those working in offices with centralized air conditioners, this will keep you warm as well,without the hassle of carrying a sweater in your bag. Yayy!

2.The Girl-Next-Door Look:


Pair your black tank top with any colorful maxi skirt you own and be ready to look simple yet sorted and pretty. Team it up with a pair of jhumkas/hoops.Experimental queens can pair your sneakers with the look for comfort. Otherwise, we always have our classic Kolhapuri Chappals,juttis,heels to match this relatable yet stylish look.

6.The ‘I skipped gym’ look:


We all are guilty of missing our gym sessions or skipping workout for some other inevitable work. Trust me on this,if you are feeling guilty about it while staring into the mirror with your little food-baby sticking out from beneath your crop top,you are not alone.We all have those days where we feel bloated and out of shape. You must have guessed it by now..take out your black tank top and layer it below your favourite crop top.Here I have gone one step ahead and knotted my crop top to give proper shape to the body.Black gives you a slimming effect while hiding your tummy on days when you don’t feel particularly confident,because we still want to look cute,don’t we?
