Jennifer Aniston

Yesterday, it was basically summer here in New York City. The second it gets up 70 degrees, it’s arms and legs (and feet!) out for me. But today is a bit chillier, which makes getting dressed this time of year very confusing. Not to mention, as normally is the case come spring, the mornings are cold while the afternoons can get pretty hot. That means, every year, I find myself standing in front of my closet — and then my coat closet — deciding what in the world to wear. And no, it doesn’t get any easier with experience.

But, when I saw Jennifer Aniston’s recent outfit, I realized that a mock-neck tank is the one spring hero staple that’s always the right choice — aka, it's perfect for spring because it’s warm enough for brisk mornings but lightweight enough for hot afternoons. I would’ve saved a lot of stress had I remembered this one before, but alas, I’m glad I’m onto it now.

Aniston was photographed at a screening of The Morning Show in Los Angeles late last week in a classic New Yorker look, meaning all-black. For her red carpet appearance, she slipped into sleek black trousers, a pant style I swear by every day of the year. When in doubt, pull those black trousers out — that’s my motto. They pair with everything, suitable for all occasions, and always look sophisticated and refined. But, what you might miss about Aniston’s pair upon first sight is that they featured a slit-hem design, a detail she’s worn before, which takes average pants to another level of cool. But, that’s not the best part of the look…

The best part is, of course, her sleek black turtleneck tank top that’s a transitional season icon, in my opinion. It’s cozy and cuddly thanks, in part, to the material you can often find said style in (think: soft ribbed cotton), as well as the high neck that keeps you warm even when the wind is chilly. But, its sleeveless design (hence, the tank top part) keeps you cool when you wear it on its own. So, layer it under a leather jacket for your morning commute, and come lunchtime, take off the topper to let your arms soak up some vitamin D.

The tank top pairs well with everything, so you’ll also have zero problems styling it. Team it with oversized jeans and chunky sneakers for a low-key cool approach, tucking it into trousers à la

Aniston for a day at the office followed by date night.

All that to say, it’s a no-brainer for the season, so it’s no wonder so many famous faces, like Meghan Markle and Nicole Kidman, are into it, too. Shop more styles that’ll get you through spring and summer with ease, below.
