I thought about lying and saying that this story was inspired by last week's Hocus Pocus 2 news—and thus timely—but the truth is that I already had pitched it beforehand.

And I'm not alone in this thinking, as I found tons of stylish influencers and fashion editors wearing different versions of loose, breezy white tops. There are also countless options to choose from on the market right now, but I did all the hard work for you and narrowed it down to the cream of the crop.
