This season tees, tanks, camis and vests have restyled themselves and are the epitome of comfort and chic. You can dress them up or down, depending on the weather and occassion.

And who says your tanks and camisoles are only meant for the the beach or running errands for the day? They have taken a whole new dimension. You can wear it to the office, for a evening party or to a girls lunch-out.

I know, for most of us, anything other than denims to team with your tank or tee sounds doubtful. But give it a shot.

A formal jacket with slim pants and a colourful cami or V-neck T and smart shoes can be worn at the office, and would definitely break the everyday monotonous office look. For a night-out or a party, throw in come sexy strappy heels and metallic clutch, with smart black demins and a hot pink cami, and you will totally look chic.

Pair a light, ruffled or lacy cami-top with a tiered skirt or this season's hottest mini-tulip skirt (ones which is softly gathered at the waistband, with gentle folds and pleats that create the illusion of a slimmer waist), to look like a million bucks. Want to wear it differently? Feminine, scalloped-lace-trimmed cami with V-neckline is perfect peeking out beneath a sweater or jacket.

For a more sophisticated look, team a ruffle cami with smart cotton shorts or cropped pants. You can dress it up with a cardi and accessorise it well. This cami-look can be easily worn for a lunch or dinner date, just a simple get together, for shopping or travelling.
