What do you wear under your...
White cami's?
Nothing? Bra? Other?
Can you suggest your bra or other item. I have two bra's that I've tried and I just don't like they way they look under my cami...Thanks!
Anyone can be cool, but awesome takes practice!
Re: What do you wear under your...
Black or dark under white?? Unless you have dark skin then I don't understand this. OP, you should wear nude under white, whatever color nude matches your skin tone.
ETA: you'll want a smooth t-shirt type bra, something plain without a lot of lace or embellishments.
It's a tip a got in my much younger bra wearing days when I basically only wore/had white bras and it was showing through everything. I am African American, but light in skin tone (think slightly lighter than beyonce, but i have more yellow undertones). Depending on what shade the beige or tan bra is, they do come close to my skin tone, but dark bras (and undies for that matter-no pattern) have always worked best for me. And I'm hyper aware of my undergarments showing through. BUT, I will say that if it's a spaghetti strapped top, the black strap will show b/c the straps of the tank aren't big enough to cover them, and that's annoying.
I also tend to wear heavier tanks, both alone and under certain things like button downs. If the fabric is really thin or sheer that could affect things. Here's a site i found doing a quick google search on my phone about it.

Good Luck!
Interesting! I always figured nude to mean something in the peach-beige-brown family but I guess it totally depends on what blends with your skin the best.
