How to Style a Graphic Tee Without Looking Like a Teenager

FTF styled a Rock and Roll sequined graphic tee from New York and Company.  We each chose to pair it with a jacket and colored pants.  The jacket adds structure and slims out a fluffy mid-section.  This tee is loose fitting and flows away from the mid-section helping to minimize our middle!

Graphic tees can be found everywhere: Just about EVERY major clothing store sells them. They come cheap and they come crazy expensive, but how you look in them depends entirely on what you wear with them. FTF has nothing against a cute graphic tee with a casual pair of jeans or shorts, but if you want to step up the game a little, graphic tees can be worn as part of a more put-together, grown-up looking outfit. Think of it as looking like an adult but eating your fun cake too!

Here are four ways to style your graphic tee:

BLAZERS

1.  Use a blazer to dress up your outfit.

SKIRTS

2.  Match a cute graphic tee with a skirt for a cool and casual yet sophisticated look. Depending on your skirt, you can go for day and/or night.

COLORED DENIM

3.   Hot mama! Mix your graphic tee with colored denim and some booties for a night out.

LAYER UP

4.   Layer Up:  Channel the ’90s with a turtleneck and high-waist denim. FTF likes that high-waist denim helps to smooth out a fluffy mid-section.
