I have a pretty robust wardrobe. My husband will willingly attest to it. He occasionally likes to remind me of all the hanger space my clothes take up in our shared closet. Then I occasionally like to remind him that he lives with a fashion editor. It’s true—my wardrobe doesn’t lack for much but every day this summer as I’ve gone to reach for something to wear with my shorts (because they’re all I’m living in at home right now) I suddenly realized that my closet is missing some very important pieces—casual tops. I’ve had several major closet cleanouts this year which has left me with a very small selection of relaxed tops that—to put it plainly—could do with an update. So I searched the internet high and low (9 hours to be exact!) to find the chicest casual tops in every category—from basic tank tops to trending camp shirts, read on to shop the very best of my finds.
