Tips Tuesday: Plain Tees!

It's getting warmer, (well it should be o_O) so we thought we would give you some tips on what to wear with your plain tees. Now, if there's one thing that just about everyone has in their wardrobe..it's the plain tee! Whether it's: white, orange, purple, or taupe, it can never fail you. It's very versatile, allowing you to look very causal or it can be dressed up quite simply.

To your left, Jennifer Hudson has on a grey plain tee, a black cropped jacket, some cut-off jean shorts, and some chunky metallic heels. Going with the simplicity of her tee, she kept the rest of her outfit on that same level. Simple. To recreate this outfit and make it your own, it's quite...you guessed it: simple! To do so there are a few options. The first being that you could take it, to the ultimate casual level.
You could take a grey tee, as Jennifer did and instead of the black jacket you could do some type of black chunky necklace. As far as bottoms, jean bermuda shorts (considering the weather) would be just fine. Perhaps throw in a tan belt, and for shoes do something bold,printed, or something to add to the casualness of the outfit; such as: these, them, or this! If you wanted to jazz this outfit up a little, you could do some wild bangles to add some color!

Jennifer Lopez on the other hand, took her plain tee and took it a small step above just causal. She still kept it quite simple however, the heels and the accessories push it more in the direction of dressy. As you can see, the picture seems to be a bit outdated; however that by no means mean that we can't take some ideas from this outfit. A loose fitting light colored tee,some boyfriend jeans*, and strappy heels really make for an outfit to run around town in. To make this look a bit more acceptable to party in, we suggest that you pair your plain tee/top with some form fitting jeans, and keep with the strappy heels; such as: that, those, or they (lol)! You know we L.O.V.E. to throw in some color, so just like the suggestions above with j.hud's outfit you could do some colored bangles, or a large colorful ring!


Either way you wear your plain tee it is without a doubt going to be cute. Just remember to keep it on the simple side of things when it comes to the rest of the outfit. Or even try spicing it up with some bold accessories or shoes!

*we couldn't find any boyfriend jeans online..if you just take a loose fitted pair from your boyfriend/brother/dad..lol and cuff the bottoms you should be able to make it work. Throw a belt around your waist and go! ;)
