While it isn’t exactly reinventing the wheel, there are so many refreshing ways to elevate and style a white t-shirt. Let’s go back to basics by incorporating this simple, versatile piece into your wardrobe this summer!

Achieve on-trend minimalist style with these tips:

Getting ready to run some errands for the day? Throw a comfy pair of overalls over your white t-shirt for a quick, laid-back look.

A white tee outfit doesn’t require much to be fashion-forward and trendy, and it’s easy to transform your look with different pieces.  Add a lady-like touch to your look by pairing your white tee with a slit skirt.

Even a basic white tee can be on-point with the addition of a leather mini skirt.

Go classic! Style a plain white tee with a pair of girlfriend jeans and bright booties.

Tuck your shirt into an A-line denim skirt and pull together the look with an eye-catching pair of sandals.

Elevate the look of your white shirt with a chic pair of heels and some light textured outerwear.

The Fourth of July is always a great reason to spend time with your loved ones and celebrate your love for good ole ‘Merica. Whether you’re heading to a barbecue or beach bonfire or camping out for fireworks, there’s an outfit for every occasion on Independence Day. Up your July 4th style game with a few outfit ideas from your favorite fashion bloggers. With these six easy outfit ideas, you’ll be looking patriotic in no time:

Select a monochrome outfit (in red, white or blue, obviously) that’s perfect for rocking at a barbecue or picnic.

Here’s an outfit that will take a few more pieces to pull off. Style nautical stripes with white outerwear and blue and red accents.

There’s no better way to make a statement on the 4th of July than with a stars-and-stripes bodycon suit that does all the talking. This ensemble works great for celebrating at the beach, so don’t forget to layer on the sunblock!

If you want a similar casual look for the holiday, try starting with a classic patriotic graphic tee, a pair of jeans and white sneakers. It’s comfy and cute—perfect for a barbecue and fireworks.

Red and white stripes are always a go-to pick for celebrating the 4th of July. Steal a page from The Golden Diamonds’s style playbook and pair a crop top with a striped midi skirt. Finish off this look with a star-patterned bag.

Is this not the cutest striped jumpsuit for celebrating the holiday? The best part is that this outfit doesn’t have to be worn exclusively for the 4th of July.

Stripes will never go out of style. They work for any style—from preppy to minimalist to eclectic and more—and on every body type. Of course, stripes are a year-round style, but they are definitely having a moment this summer. Street style stars, bloggers, and fashion “It girls” everywhere are loving summer stripes. Take a look at some of my favorite bloggers looks featuring my favorite go-to pattern.

Blair scored the perfect striped summer dress via Reformation. If I could wish a dress into my closet, it would be this one! I love the wide stripes and the low neckline.

We all love a good matching set, and Caila’s has plenty of both style and personality.
