Turbanista Style: How to Wear (The Heck Outta) a Graphic Tee

One of the favorite fashion trends of today is the marriage of style and comfort. Part of the allure of 90’s and retro fashion is the way they intermix style and comfort. It is completely possible to be on the cutting edge of style and sophistication while wearing comfortable fabrics and casual shoes. If you are looking for a laid-back way to make a statement, try incorporating carefully chosen graphic tees into your wardrobe.

Keep it Professional

In some professions, a cotton tee may not cut it. But in most workplaces, a t-shirt can be quite versatile. A great way to dress up your favorite tee is with a blazer. Dress slacks or a nice skirt can make it more appropriate for an office. Furthermore, an additional accessory that adds color or style can complete the professional look. Consider a nice watch or a chunky necklace and earrings.

Keep it Casual

One of the best ways to accessorize the graphic tee is with denim. Jeans, jean jackets, or jean skirts go great with a statement tee. Another key to building an outfit around your graphic tee is layering. Try layering your tee with a light jacket, such as a bomber or cargo jacket. And don’t forget to complete the look with accessories such as a long necklace or a hat.

Shoes Define the Style

As with any style, the shoes can make all the difference. This is the best way to communicate if you are going for super casual or a little dressy. Heels or dress shoes work great to add just a touch of professionalism to your graphic tee shirt. Converse or Vans can make the outfit a little more hip and a lot more comfortable. Stylish tennis shoes can communicate as much style as the shirt can a message. Shoe choice is important when working with a versatile piece like a graphic tee.

 

Graphic tees are so versatile you’ll likely want several in your wardrobe. But choose carefully. The purpose is to communicate something. There is a space for words and pictures for a reason. Use it for good. Whether it’s a personal message or an advertisement, the graphic tee can make an impact. Be proud of what you have to say with your style.
