STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Tee-ing Off for T-Shirt Dresses

Your iPhone alarm clock sounds in the morning and you have forty minutes to get up, throw on an outfit and get to class (add in a stop at Starbucks if your fast). There’s only one thing in your way: what in the world are you going to wear? A T-shirt won’t impress the cute boy in your math class, but your black leather leggings aren’t exactly class material. Enter the solution to all your problems: the T-shirt dress.

T-shirt dresses are all the rage right now (it’s not a bad idea to stock up on them). Read: you can never have too many T-shirt dresses. From long sleeved to short sleeved, these comfortable dresses are a must-have.

They can be worn just about anywhere. Going on a dinner date with dad and need to dress up a little? Throw on a black T-shirt dress, an Anthropology cardigan, chunky leather booties and a simple necklace. Curl your hair and your ready to go. These dresses look great with anything from jean to leather. Check out stores like Forever 21 and Brandy Melville if you’re in search of a T-shirt dress.

This Fashionista has the right idea. She uses the T-shirt dress as a base and accessorizes the look with some bold pieces. She’s sporting a denim hoodie jacket to give the outfit a little extra pop, and ties it all together with a House of Harlow necklace. Finally, she keeps it casual with high-top Converse (always comfortable) and several beaded bracelets (don’t be afraid to mix and match colors).

What is your STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK? “I’d rather be comfortable and cute. If I’m not content with how I feel, then I won’t be excited about what I’m wearing. I won’t be able to pull it off. Comfort and confidence are key!”
