Smart Layering With Amalli Talli

We’ll just keep this short and sweet today! Everyone needs layers in their life. Especially in our current weather. You wake up in the morning and need a jacket to comfortably go outside, but by the time you leave work, you firmly don’t need a jacket. The sun is still doing a great job of warming it up during the day, for us to have a comfortable afternoon/evening. While we’d love to just plan for a one-season type of day where it’s consistent; it’s just not realistic.

That’s where layers come in. Having the appropriate pieces you can wear as bases in your wardrobe is a must. I’ve caught myself searching my closet high and low to find the right top to wear underneath a cardigan or a jacket. They’re probably the unsung heroes of your closet if we’re being honest!

Plus if they’re well-fitting, it makes them that much easier to reach for repeatedly. That is definitely the case with Amalli Talli’s crew neck layering tanks! We’re constantly searching for pieces we can pair with our skirts for work wear. It’s a bigger task than you might think because it has to be the right length to comfortably tuck in. You guessed it, a lot of other retailers don’t quite fit the bill on that end.

Another thing I get picky about with shells is where the armpit hole cuts in. If you’re ever planning to wear it alone, you don’t really want that pinch between the edge of the top and your armpit. It’s uncomfortable, and not flattering. Plus, I’ve experienced too many short armpit holes rubbing on my armpit all day for my comfort. If you go the other way, sometimes you’re exposing your bra because the armpit is too droopy. We feel like Goldilocks, because the armpits on this tank, are jusstttt right.

We got this tank in size medium. We do feel it’s true to size; however, if you have a bigger bust you might want to consider sizing up for that. Amalli Talli always has the best jewel tone color palette, so this tank is available in red or blue! Caitlin styles it with one of her favorite mini skirts from Gap. Who says gingham can’t be worn in Fall as well? Plus she added our new favorite jacket, the moto jacket from Amalli Talli that we debuted yesterday on the blog. If you missed it and want to see it on me (Jenilee 6’4) then check yesterday’s post here.
