This $19 Tank On Amazon Miiiiiight Just Be Better Than The $120 Version We’ve Been Drooling Over
1. We all just need to get over it. Remember when we thought we were “so fat” 20 years ago and now we’d KILL to look like that? Well that’s going to be us 20 years from NOW looking back at today. So let’s stop living in the past and the future and live for today, and living for today means showing our arms.
2. If that last thing we said made you roll your eyes (same) then just believe us when we say that we have found one style of tank top that is, unequivocally, the most flattering tank top on chunky arms and broad shoulders, and it has 2 key requirements:
A. Amazing ribbing which holds you in and up without wearing a bra
B. Very, very thin straps
Let’s look at some visuals, which are the tank top ideal, and while we love them all and will link you to all of them, the prices for this type of style tend to be, how do you say? Ah yes. Insane.
Listen. They’re all perfect. The thin strap actually makes your entire upper body look smaller, and a thicker strap makes us all look like wide football players. And the tight ribbing creates stretch that holds us in without feeling suffocated.
But. When we find a tank top, we like to buy 17 of them in every color. And we’re not about to buy 17 $75 tank tops, because we are not made of money.
And so, as we often do, we searched for a dupe. And search we have. High and low. Endless try ons. Nothing was good.
Until….this one.
Perfect thin straps. Perfect ribbing. Perfect price. Its $19. Yes. $19.
Now, it’s Amazon photos so it’s not all lifestyle-y and gorgeous looking, so here’s a photo of it on a real, love person. A person with thick arm no less:
And now? The best part.
It. Comes. In. 2. Lengths!
There’s a “short” version which is perfect to wear with high-waisted jeans, pants, and skirts. And there’s a “full length” version if you have a long torso or just like some extra coverage in order to bunch it up over the pooch, which has a lovely camouflaging effect. Now, the sizes are limited. This is a bummer. However, they run about 1-2 sizes large so size down. And then, of course, there is the last big decision to make which is which one of the NINETEEN colors to buy? Or you could just get them all. Like we did. Because we’re deranged.
