TIPS FOR CHOOSING A PERFECT WHITE SHIRT FOR WOMEN


There are obviously a couple things to look for in a white tee. For me, the perfect white t-shirt is:

1. Not see through. 

You are able to wear it with a nude bra underneath without feeling like everyone can see everything.

2. Not super expensive.

With three young kids, a white t-shirt is bound to get effed up Flattering. I want just the right amount of body-graze without my pooch or any rolls being highlighted by a bad drape or fabric.

3. Comfy. 

Anything itchy or too tight need not apply.


Best Splurge

No one does luxe basics like The Row (we’re currently drooling over the brand's cozy cashmere sweaters), so it’s not a surprise that the Olsens' take on the white T-shirt doesn’t skimp on details, like a silk-trimmed back seam.

Best Value

At $8 a pop, you can’t beat the Hanes classic. The cotton, polyester, and rayon-blend features a heart-shaped V-neck neckline and a left pocket. But don’t worry about those irritating construction tags; this style is tax-free. Buy in bulk.

Best Boyfriend


Borrowing from the boys is nothing new, but sometimes you want your own perfectly proportioned oversize tee—is that too much to ask? Well not according to the Rag & Bone designers, who have crafted their own baggy boyfriend T-shirt from 100% cotton.

For wearing with a necklace

This pre-shrunk, V-neck tee elongates your torso and is subtlely sexy. Size up for a more relaxed look. 

Best Cropped

This Alexander Wang tee has a shorter hem and relaxed cut, making it the perfect partner for high-waisted jeans and skirts.

Over the years I’ve accumulated more than a few white t-shirts but I’m always on the hunt for the best white t-shirt EVER. So I asked YOU, ordered a ton, and did a very scientific try-on ;). I wore the same jeans for each pic but changed up my shoes to show you how versatile a white tee + jeans can be if you just change up the kicks. I also shot each t-shirt from the front untucked (top left), from the side untucked (top right), from the front side half tucked (bottom left) and from the front side-knotted (one of my favorite ways to style a tee, bottom right). 

For that boxy vintage look:

RE/DONE X Hanes 1950’s Boxy Crop Tee

Small and boxy, crewnecked, lightly structured, and subtly cropped at the waist and the arms. This is the tee you imagine you could find at a vintage store for $15, but will not. You’ll never regret owning this, even though it may seem expensive. It’s absurd, you’ll probably say to yourself, to spend $80 on a simple tee. But hear me out: These T-shirts are the retail equivalent of no-makeup makeup. These are T-shirts that will pull together an entire outfit handily, no matter what you are wearing — they’ll elevate jeans, and even out skirts and fancy pants. And most importantly, these are T-shirts you can wear almost every day.

Easy Summer Combinations - Clothing tips for men

Navy and stripes 

There's a reason sailors get the girls, and while peak physical conditioning doesn't hurt, a big reason is that stylish sailor suits are more attractive than their camo fatigue-wearing counterparts any day of the year. Now you can bring out your inner sailor by combining navy fabrics with stripes for a casual and preppy look that's perfect for almost any social function.

When you combine military fashion with college campus wear, the results are far better than when the two factions meet in real life. There's no "protesting" the undeniable low-key fashion statement that occurs when a bomber jacket and a beanie are combined.


Jeans and Blazer

Too many men dress high-low by accident, wearing a pair of knackered trainers with a suit because they couldn’t find their proper shoes. But denim is a power player in the high-low wardrobe when done right; especially when worn with a blazer.


To avoid looking like a man that owns square-toed shoes, opt for slim-cut denim in a mid-to-dark wash with minimal detailing. As for the blazer, an unstructured example will tie the two opposing pieces together, but a more structured jacket can be worn if the gap is bridged with a smart-casual piece, such as an open-necked shirt or polo.

Suits & T-Shirts

Monochrome should be the first step on the collarless road – a grey suit and white T-shirt is a tough thing to mess up – but as your confidence grows, start experimenting with colors and patterns such as a Breton stripe. It’s best to keep the eye-catching stuff to the base layer, like the T-shirt, as there’s less of it on display, and stick to classic crew necks over anything that plunges towards your navel.
