Is anyone else obsessed with graphic tees?! I am! Especially in the summer time! They can be dressed up, dressed down and worn for so many occasions and in so many ways. I honestly believe that everyone needs a handful of good graphic tees hanging in their closet...they're perfect staples pieces for any wardrobe, any season. I guess it kind of makes sense why I built a business around designing and making graphic tees!
In today's post I'm sharing some different ways to style graphic tees, because let's be honest...one of the hardest parts about these kind of tees is knowing how to style them, what to wear them with and where to wear them.
"THE PARTIAL TUCK"
The first way to style a graphic tee is the partial tuck. This is my go-to look because it's casual yet still has structure. To show y'all the partial tuck, I chose my "Take It Easy" tee and I paired it with a few different items. You can wear it with simple white sneakers for a super casual comfy look or with heeled sandals for a dressier look. So simple and cute!
HOW TO DO IT:
Take the front 5-6 inches (horizontal) of your tee hem and tuck it into the waistband of your pants, skirt, etc. Then slightly pull the tee out for a casual loose look.
WHAT TO PAIR IT WITH:
- Pencil Skirt & Sneakers
- Pencil Skirt & Heeled Sandals
- Jeans & Sneakers
- Jeans & Booties
- Shorts & Sneakers
"THE FRONT KNOT"
Another favorite style of mine is the front knot. I love this one, especially if my graphic tee is super oversized and I need a way to make it look more feminine and structured. The front knot style would be cute with a high waisted skirt, jeans or shorts! I wore a leopard midi skirt and my "Tacos Por Favor" tee paired with two shoe choices...simple white sneakers or Espadrille sandals. Both are casual looks, but different kinds of casual. The sneaker look would be great for running errands or going to lunch, while the sandal look would be good for a party or dinner date!
HOW TO DO IT:
This is pretty much like tying a balloon. Gather all of the fabric on the front of your tee into your hand and pull it tight underneath your chest. Pull the end down and wrap it around two fingers then slip the little end through the hole to form a knot. You only need a little big of fabric to pull through. To loosen the knot and move it further down, hold the end that's sticking out and gently slide the knot toward it.
WHAT TO PAIR IT WITH:
- High Waisted Midi Skirt & Sneakers
- High Waisted Jeans & Booties
- High Waisted Shorts & Sandals
