T-Shirt Fashion Challenge!

Picture

From Top Left to Bottom Right:

SUX (Austria), Yan (China), District of Chic (D.C.) & Yours Truly ^_^

These are just a few styles demonstrating that t-shirts don't have to be boring. I think there's a little bit for everyone here. There's the casual/edgy look, the eclectic/colorful look, the elegant/chic look and then..uh..me. I'm not sure how I'd classify that one. Haha. Just your average color-block look, I guess.

I'm bored and I need a fun fashion challenge, so I'm challenging myself to wear a t-shirt every day for the month of July. :D I've found that I have a ton of t-shirts and I haven't worn many for most of this year. I've got enough Threadless shirts to last me three months. Yeah... So, this should be easy! :D

I was curious as to how many different ways I could style an outfit around a t-shirt. I figured, if I made myself think about it every day this month, I would surely come up with at least a few really amazing styles and that would make this all worth it. Haha. So, here's one of my styles for this week.


Picture

This is going to be a quick post, since you've seen most of these pieces before in some way shape or form, including this t-shirt. The last time I wore it, I was in Portland! You can see that look here.

I wore a pleated black maxi skirt at that time. Here, I opted for my latest plaid maxi (and instant favorite), jazzed it up with a blazer instead of a cardigan and finished the look with some combat boots.

I've also got a new hairstyle. Hehe. I'm channeling Janelle Monáe a little bit, I guess. :D I never know what to do with my hair. I wish I could just wear a hat every day, so I wouldn't have to think about it. Haha. I really don't care about it at all. I'm trying to make more of an effort, though. Maybe, I'll do this particular style again. I have to admit, I do like it and it definitely got people's attention. :P~

Picture

Yep. It's really nothing special. Just a skirt, boots, a blazer and a shirt. However, my aim was to use colors and textures to make the overall look aesthetically appealing and fun! :D  Also, this t-shirt is one of my favorites to play around with due to its versatile color and surrealist retro inspired print. <3

Picture

I'm going to avoid wearing jeans with my tees during the challenge. So, let's see what else I can do! :D


Thrifted - Puff Sleeve Blazer, ModCloth Maxi Skirt (sale) & Floral Tights
American Apparel -  Long Sleeved Lace Bodysuit
VJ Style - Gold Studded Barrel Bag

Threadless - Polaroid T-Shirt
Hot Topic - Combat Boots


♫ Thank you so much for your comments! Though I may not respond to each one, I read and appreciate all of them! ♫

Nothing special!?!?? Are you freakin serious? This is the most awesome outfit ever, that plaid maxi made me drool all over the keyboard :D
I've been thinking about your perfect styling skill and maybe you could make posts for dumb asses like me, on how to layer. It would be a blast :D

Pffft. You're insane. Haha. You're awesome at layering! You do it in every outfit! <3 Plus, I wouldn't know where to begin with a tutorial. I layer up unconsciously. The thing I tend to fixate on the most is colors/patterns. :F

T shirts are such a basic staple we all need yet we don't seem to wear them often so I really look forward to seeing the putfits you come up with. Loving the edgy look of this one,

Whenever I see a person who looks like you I think 'Why the hell I'm not that creative?' You have awesome style! So effortless and chic with a hint of masculine at the same time! I'm your fan <3

Aww. <3 Wow! Thanks! I feel like ripping off the label from one of my perfume bottles and pasting a label on it that says: "Hint of Masculine." Haha. So awesome. :D

Love the whole ensemble and the detail on that t-shirt is epic! I must say no one does justice to 'Layering' the way you do. You're defo the queen of laying for me and you look cute.

OMG I LOVE this challenge! I know I've mentioned before that I love how you incorporate t-shirts. I may have to give it a go at some point. I have a big stack of awesome threadless tees... that I inevitably just wear on the weekend with jeans and a hoodie. woop woop.

Keep being amazing. And again - LOVE this challenge. Can't wait to see the pics! :D

Yeah, I know! I feel like we might have talked about this before in the past. Perhaps it was that conversation that inspired me to do this. We'll see how it goes! I'm just as excited to see what I come up with as you are! :DDD <3

What a fun idea! I definitely wouldn't have enough T-shirts to do that, but I sounds like you have more than enough to keep this interesting! Also, I'm pretty much in love with those boots. And that skirt.

Ah! Wearing T-shirts are so hard for me anymore, but I love all the looks of all the girls. I especially like your second one with the plaid skirt. And the new hair-do there too.
