12 Ways to Style A White Tee

A basic white tee — we all have them, and we all lean on them when we’re looking to put together an outfit that feels easy, effortless, and casual. But as simple as a white tee is, don’t mistake it for a piece that should only be worn when you’re in a rush or throwing something on without much thought.

The truth is, simple basics are often the pieces doing the most work in your wardrobe. They’re what allow you to mix and match your clothes in different ways, repeat pieces without outfits feeling repetitive, and create looks that feel effortless without constantly needing something new.

Without those versatile basics, it’s easy to fall into the habit of wearing the same outfits over and over, only reaching for certain pieces in your closet, or feeling like nothing really works together.

Below are twelve different ways to wear a white tee. And if you’re looking for a complete guide to the wardrobe basics that make getting dressed easier, the Wardrobe Basics eBook includes the full list — along with over 250 outfit ideas showing exactly how to mix and match your clothes.
