We’ve never related more to the lyrics from “Hot in Herre” by Nelly. Nothing sums up our summer feels better. It’s so hot outside, that all we can think about is taking off all our clothes. Though it might not be okay to literally shed our clothing in public just because we’re sweating buckets, it is possible to wear minimal garments to reduce the gross moistness caused by summer’s blazing hot wrath.

We’re specifically talking about bra tops, of course. There are so many options that are first and foremost, trendy AF, and secondly, substantial enough to cover the goods. Pair your bra top with flowy shorts or a skirt and it’s as if you totally outsmarted the weather forecast.

The best part about wearing a bra top as your summer ’fit is that you can easily transition the look into the evening. Layer a light sweater or button-down shirt over your bra top and shorts for an easy, breezy nighttime OOTD. 

Keep scrolling for 10 options that we have a feeling you’ll be wearing on heavy rotation this summer.

This Urban Outfitters pick is one you won’t be able to stop wearing because you’ll have it in so many different colors.

Girlfriend Collective Dylan Tank Bra

The Dylan Tank Bra from Girlfriend Collective is perfect for the warmer months not only because it’s a bra top, but because it’s also a sports bra. It’s built to endure medium-impact workouts, it won’t have any trouble dealing with all your summer sweat. Plus, we always love a good high neckline and racerback design.

Intimately Chloe Seamless Longline Bralette

It’s never too late to revert back to your high school, Tumblr-girl, boho-chic-loving self. Free People’s lace bralettes were a huge part of that era, and this one is very similar but a smidge more elevated.
