When it comes to closet must-haves, the classic white tee ranks just as highly as blue jeans or a little black dress. What other item can look casual with jeans for a day of errands—and then look chic under a blazer for a business lunch? With so many fits and styles available, here’s how to wear them so you’ll stand out.
V-neck shirts are universally flattering on any body shape or size. That’s because a "V" neckline creates a long and lean silhouette, making a white V-neck tee easy to wear on its own. And a tunic length easily pairs with skinny jeans or leggings so you’re ready to lounge at home or for a day of errands.
You can think of a white V-neck tee as a “blank canvas” to add color and texture to your look. Ideas include a colorful necklace on top or bright skirt or even colored denim on the bottom. Your white V-neck is your base for flattering styles that are easy as they are chic.
If a V-neck isn’t your style, a classic crew neck with cap sleeves should fulfill your need for wardrobe basics. Tuck in your tee for a cute retro look, or order a size up for a minimalist, boxy feel.
