#FashionTips: How to spice up your basic T-shirt outfit

T-shirts are currently the number one go to wardrobe piece. Due to the pandemic, most people are opting for more laid back looks they can throw on quickly and still look fly. T-shirts are winning because even though they are simple and plain in their design, the final look remains exquisite.

Whether you are going for a simple Tee and some jeans or with a skirt, it never hurts to spice up your look just a little. Here are some tips to help you upgrade your T-shirt outfits to look bold and stylish:

A simple T-shirt looks good but when the sleeves are rolled up it becomes a whole mood. It leaves your arms looking good and the best part is that it gives room for accessories and you can also show off your tattoos if any. If you are going for a more feminine look, roll the sleeves just once, when you roll it up to the shoulders, it will be bold but not as classy as you would want it to look.

 I cannot stress this more, always tuck in your T-shirt. A tucked in T-shirt looks classier and more planned. You can get away with an untucked T-shirt but it will lose the stylish touch you might be going for. If your trouser or skirt is too tight for a full tuck, always go with a front tuck, it will be laid back and edgy at the same time.

Whether you are going for a blazer, kimono or a simple leather jacket, adding a cover up will give your T-shirt outfit some edge and make your whole look stylish. The best part is that you can work with cover ups of all colours and designs. Furthermore, adding a cover up will give you a more feminine touch instead of just looking frumpy.

Since a T-shirt is plain and simple it allows enough room to play around with your accessories to give a spicier finish. You can add a belt, statement necklace, sunglasses or a simple funny pack (which is currently trending) to give your outfit more structure and upgrade. Be careful not to add to many accessories that will make your outfit look too clattered together, remember you are going for a simple but sophisticated look.

The secret to rocking the perfect T-shirt look is keeping it simple. When you think that a T-shirt will look too plain and feel the urge to add more pieces, stop and don’t. In most cases the piece you want to add make your outfit look extra and tacky.

Tip: When it comes to T-shirts, there are no rules to the kind of shoes that will work best with the outfit. Put on any of your favourite shoes and slay away.
