Ways To Wear Vintage Tee Shirts
Vintage t shirts are a great way to stay casual, but still be funky. They're fun, show that you have a lighter side and prove to the world that you're willing to sort through the mounds at the local charity shop for a great score. If you want to learn more about where to find the best shirts and how to wear them, read on.
Step One: Find The Perfect Shirt
You won't be able to wear vintage tee shirts with style if you can't find a stylish vintage tee. The first rule in hunting for a vintage shirt is to never buy one of those fake and pre-fabricated vintage tees that they sell at Old Navy or Forever 21. It screams contrived. Instead, check out a vintage store.
Most vintage stores either sift through shipments of used clothing or the racks of charity and other second-hand shops to find the best and brightest selections. It's like a shopping filter that weeds out the bad stuff for you.
Of course, buying a vintage tee from a vintage shop comes at a premium, meaning you're paying extra for that service.
Accessories Make the T-Shirt
A plain vintage tee is fine for a Saturday afternoon lounging around the house, but you can take it so much further with just a little accessorizing. Try pairing your favorite vintage t shirt with a chunky necklace, a bold vintage brooch or a big bracelet. It will add punch to your outfit and dress it up a little.
Pair With the Perfect Pair
Your jeans are going to either make or break your beloved vintage tee-shirt. Avoid the temptation to pair a vintage tee with a pair of old, broken-in jeans. The look will scream sloppy and ragged, not cool. Instead, grab your hottest pair of clean and crisp jeans and revel in the contrast of "old meets new."
Avoid Ironic Sayings
A humorous saying on a T-shirt might be funny for five seconds, but like an old Ashton Kutscher joke, it gets old pretty fast. So, stay away from shirts that are overly ironic, cutesy or rife with funny sayings. Remember, you want a shirt that says "vintage bohemian cool" not "class clown."
Vintage tee shirts are all about how you wear them and where you find them. Remember to always buy authentic and don't forget to accessorize with the perfect pair of jeans.
