128. The Basics: Fitted Tees
My favorite piece of clothing right now is a black Timeless Crewneck Tee (pictured) from Banana Republic. It completely captures my clothing personality. I wanna be neat, but comfortable. I want to be elegant, but not in any way that takes very much work. And I want to not spend very much money. This top accomplishes all of those things. It costs $20 and has a long, sleek fit that's really flattering.
I also have it in green and red. Any color over neat jeans ("denim trousers") or slacks makes for a super-simple chic look. I don't wear skirts often, but the few I do wear go well with these tops. They make for a good look. There's something about pairing a t-shirt with a fancier bottom that says, "Yes, I want to impress. But no, I'm not going to inconvenience myself too much to do it." And that pretty much sums up my personality =). Sidenote: This is also the reason you're not likely to catch me in heels in a club. It's just not worth it (anymore).
I also go for printed tees with slacks. I used to have a Mickey Mouse top that I wore under a blazer or nice jacket. It got retired years ago. But I plan on rebuilding my collection of graphic tees with some fun, cheap options. I have my eye on that Tootsie-Roll "That's How I Roll" t-shirt. It's so me.
