Ahh the beloved poplin top – my favorite third piece to wear in the warmer months.
You probably recognize this top from a few weeks ago where I shared a creative way to button and tuck it, but if you missed it you can catch up here.
Today though I am focusing on two outfits that are easy to use as a base for a poplin top.
Ready to jump in?
Outfit Base #1: Trousers + Fitted tee + White Leather Sneakers

This outfit is just so classic. The wide-leg trouser, white ribbed top, and white leather trainer make for an incredibly easy-to-wear base. Almost any jacket, accessory, or purse could go with it and that is what makes it so versatile.
The poplin top is an easy choice to give this outfit some life and with this specific top a subtle pop of color.
I just added a hobo bag and some hoops and the whole look came together nicely.

Abercrombie Sloan Light Weight Drapey Tailored Pants in Black
Aritzia Cropped Ribbed Tee (old) | Similar here: Everlane Ribbed Baby Tee in White
Outfit Base #2: Leggings + Cropped fitted tank + Sporty Sneakers

I cannot say enough good things about the concept of this outfit. We all lead busy multi-faceted lives and there is no getting around days when we need athleisure outfits that provide functionality and comfort. But that doesn’t mean they need to be messy or boring.
For this look, I took the base of a legging + tank and made it both sporty and playful. The sporty elements are the socks, sneakers, and of course, the base of the outfit, and the playful pieces are the slightly opaque tinted sunglasses and the green baseball cap paired with the green striped poplin that really fills this outfit with life and makes a statement.
Add a simple book bag to the look and you are good to go.
