GET CREATIVE: How to Dress up a White T

GET CREATIVE: How to Dress up a White T
Good Morning, beauties! We're all friends here, right? Don't be ashamed, don't hide it! We all have that plain white T that's shoved in the back of our closet drawers, and we all have no idea why we still have it. Think again, ladies, because the white T can actually come in handy. Unlike mini dresses or ripped jeans, the white T can work at pretty much any venue and with pretty much any style. All you have to do is get a little creative and you could come up with millions of different ideas! I'm going to give you the top 5 ways that I dress up my plain white T, and hopefully, one of them works for you! :)

1.  THE JACKET: Whether it be a leather bomber, a trench coat, or a classic blazer, Vanessa Hudgens knows how to dress up her white T! In the wintertime, throwing a cute jacket on with a pair of jeans and boots would be the way to go, but now that it's almost summer, we can't be thinking coats. Lots of celebs have been sporting lightweight blazers. They're perfect for hot weather, and the best part is, they're super easy. Just pick your favorite pair of shorts and white T, then throw a blazer over top. You'll look like you spent forever picking out an outfit, when it only took you less then five minutes.

2. THE SCARF: I absolutely love the way Hilary Duff dressed up her T in this picture. Scarfs are so easy, they go with anything, and most of them are pretty thin, so work really well with warm weather. You can wear a scarf with a white T and skinnies, or, if you want to go really casual, with a pair of shorts.

3. THE STATEMENT NECKLACE: Statement necklaces look amazing with anything, especially a plain white T. I love Jessica Alba's colorful beaded necklace, because it draws attention to the colors rather then the plain T shirt. Add some sunglasses and maybe a bracelet, like she did, and no one will notice your white shirt!

4. THE BELT: I love belts with plain white shirts. Jennifer Lopez's belt looks really nice with her dark wash jeans, but if it were me, I would have worn a dramatic patterned belt, like cheetah, or a bright neon, like pink. It makes the contrast between the neutral blue and white, and also brings a pop of color into the outfit. You can also make the belt high waisted to define your waist line, or add a pencil skirt to look more professional. 

5. FASHION-FORWARD PANTS: Rihanna's style is completely unpredictable and dramatic. I love how she takes her simple white shirt and dresses it up with unexpected, baggy trousers. I've also seen people wear bright neon skinny jeans with white tops, or even patterned pants. The other way this outfit might be looked at is classic. Her white and black ensemble will always be in style. 

I hope you found a way to wear your old white T! Don't throw it away, don't sell it - I promise you, there are so many ways to dress it up and put your own twist on it. 

XOXO,

Stephanie
