This post is all about – How to Style Tube Tops in 7 Different Ways.
-THE APPEARANCE OF THE TUBE TOP
This Spring and Summer this style of top is super on-trend. However, this is not a new trend.
The tube tops first appear in the late ’90s and early 2000s for their unquestionable sexiness and comfort. Truth be told, these tops are super popular because they instantly give you that lifted and effortless look while being amazing basics you can pair with almost everything.
Adored by Britney Spears, Sarah Jessica Parker, Naomi Campbell, and Beyoncé, this piece became an absolute wardrobe essential! And we can see why it is so easy to style.
The tube top has had a slight change in 2021. Now, it is more fitted, structured to dispense an uncomfortable bra, and has many variants. Some are micro and act like a bandeau, and others are a lot more modest and allow you to tuck them into your trousers for a more covered look.
HOW TO STYLE TUBE TOPS
1- PAIRED WITH JEANS
Pairing a tube top with some jeans is such an easy and effortless way to put together an outfit!
By opting to pair your favorite tube top with some jeans you will achieve a very casual and effortless look, just like this one from Emrata’s IG.
Definitely, the perfect outfit to wear on an everyday basis. It is stylish and comfortable you cannot go wrong with it. We love it!
STYLING TIP– When styling your tube top with jeans or trousers, we recommend you to opt for high-waisted ones! They are so much more flattering, especially since the majority of the tube tops are cropped!

2- FOR A PREPPIER LOOK
We recommend you upgrade your jeans to some suit trousers, culottes, or even some leather pants for a preppier look. Basically something in the lines of what Cindy is wearing in this IG post.
This change will impact the overall outfit, making it a lot more suited for formal/put-together occasions! And just like that, with the same tube top and a blazer, you can instantly elevate and rock a super stylish outfit for a special occasion!
Keep in mind that you should pay attention to the top’s fabric and the color when opting to wear a tube top or any basic top to an event.
Suppose you wear a flimsy and cheap fabric top in vibrant and tacky color. In that case, you will not achieve the same look as if you were to wear a neutral color top in a thick and structured material!
We will also advise you to stick to the basic colors like black and white (make sure it is not see-through). To make it easier for you, we linked here our best finds in the high street – black one & white one.
3- GET THE Y2K LOOK
Another perfect way of styling your favorite tube top is definitely by using it to achieve the iconic and very on-trend Y2K look.
Sometimes this style can look a little bit tacky. However, when styled right it’s such a cute and nostalgic aesthetic.
We love this 00’s inspired outfit from Xenia’s IG. She looks stunning and is, for sure, a perfect representation of how well a Y2K can look stylish when done right.
4- PAIRED WITH BOLD PANTS
If you want to spice up your outfits and make them instantly more stylish you have to try the iconic combo that is a bold pair of pants and a basic top. It is impossible to go wrong with an outfit like this one.
We absolutely love how stunning and stylish this combination looks on Matilda’s IG post and will for sure recreate this amazing outfit.

In our opinion, the best way to style cargos is definitely with basic tops, preferably crop tops or small tops such as a tube top. We love this look from Emili’s IG, she looks stunning and perfectly exemplifies how good this combo looks. What do you think? Would you wear it?
