Graphic T-Shirts Part 1 of 2
Do you ever run into Target to get one item and come out with a cart full? Asking for a friend! That might have just happened to me! I don’t recall what I needed but if time permits I like to do a quick run through and see what’s new in the clothing, shoes and accessories departments. On this particular day, there were lots of super fun graphic tees! I grabbed three but could have grabbed lots more. To see a previous post on how to style graphic tees, click HERE. The graphic tees trend continues strong and can actually be super simple to style and look so cute, trendy and be comfy! That’s the trifecta of outfit winning! Additionally, the t-shirts were under $15.00 each!
Blondie Graphic T-Shirt
Blondie brings back happy college memories for me! This particular tee has metallic silver accents, which are difficult to see and numerous colors along the side (blue and yellow). I knew this would be fun to style and could be worn so many ways! How would you style it?
I opted to pair the Blondie Tee with my Level 99 snakeskin print skinny jeans from Evereve, red Marc Fisher booties and my faux red leather with metal accents jacket. All in my closet! I was feel’in kinda sassy in this look. This look could be worn out with girlfriends or date night.
Styling this Blondie t-shirt was so much fun! I ended up pulling out all kinds of options I already had in my closet. Clothes were flying and it was a whirlwind of styling! I hope you come back for part 2 of this blog post to see the 10 ways I styled this one tee…and I probably could have kept going!
AC/DC Graphic T-Shirt
AC/DC brings back happy high school memories for me. Am I the only one that fashion triggers memories? I’m old enough now that I’ve worn trends in my younger years and am wearing them again in my midlife years. Remember my motto: You’re never too old! No matter your age or size, you can be cute and trendy! There were several AC/DC graphic t-shirts at Target. This one spoke to me because of all of the lightening bolts, colors and patterns. Similar to stars I’m a big fan of lightening bolts. I knew there’d be lots of styling options for this tee as well!
The checkered lightening bolts prompted my purchase of the checkered Vans. I’d been looking at them and wanting them for some time. They’re super comfy and obviously match perfect. My boyfriend Old Navy distressed jeans and cheetah print cuff and earrings (cheetah and zebra print lightening bolt) by LDWatkins Designs and cheetah print belt rounded out my look. Because I’m always cold, I layered on my fringed red jacket, which has been in my closet for years. It was purchased on a girl’s trip to Cape Cod several years ago.
I wore this look on a Friday for work (remote and on Zoom). Then went out to dinner with Mr. FTF and ran errands. Then I wore it to a local farm stand and apple picking. I was definitely feeling this look. It ticked off the three C’s – cute, comfy and colorful!
Bowie Graphic T-Shirt
Sticking with my happy memory theme tied to fashion, David Bowe reminds me of high school. I have another graphic t-shirt of David Bowe, which was purchased because of the colors (pale pink and blue) and wanting to wear it with my tie dye jeans. To see that post, click HERE. Most times that is my criteria, fun colors or interesting elements and I begin to visualize how I’d wear it and what I’d style it with. I visualize from head to toe. This tee spoke to me because of the yellow, pink and golden star embellishments!
I opted to pair this tee with my white jeans. Yes, forget about all of those silly fashion rules and wear the white jeans/pants after Memorial Day. It’s ok and the fashion police won’t give you a ticket! I pulled out my pink suede Sam Edelman booties, added my pink leather earrings from LDWatkins Design and voila. Simple, easy and out the door. I layered on my pink jacket for extra warmth. You could add a denim jacket with any of these tees.
Lastly, I wanted to mention that I’ll wear all of these t-shirts to work out in because most of my workouts involve high energy fun music. When you look cute to workout, you have a better workout…right?! My leggings are from Dick’s Sporting Goods. I was there to look at golf clubs for my husband and spotted these. I’m sure you can guess that I wanted them because of the yellow and pink side stripes! When my Pound Fit instructor Leah spotted my t-shirt, she added a cool down routine to a Bowe song!
