Everyone loves a classic; from The Great Gatsby to Fleetwood Mac, you can’t really ever see them not being iconic. The “white t-shirt” is The Great Gatsby of a fashion classic. There’s a reason that through decades, trend cycles, the rise of fast fashion and beyond, the white tee has remained a constant in our closets. There are a number of reasons why we swear by our favorite white T-shirts.
The simple staple not only offers a seamless transition from season to season but allows for a excess of styled options. Whether you wear one with boyfriend jeans, under a blazer, tucked into a skirt, or even under a dress for a more hipster look, a classic white t-shirt is something that no woman can – or should – live without. Although there are a plethora of perfect pairing options, finding the perfect style isn’t as simple (or abundant). The ideal white t-shirt must be roomy yet not baggy, opaque yet not too thick, soft yet not fragile, and drapey yet not sloppy. That’s a lot of requirements! But, once you find the perfect one for you there is no reason to search anywhere else.
A simple outfit like this makes my life so much easier when I’m cramped on time and feel too lazy to think of creative dressing solutions. Adding splashes of color, unique details or statement pieces is a great way to amplify the outfit without having to overthink or overdress!
