I'll be the first to admit that I wear my t-shirts to death, especially in the Summer when I rotate through my ever-growing assortment no fewer than three times a week (usually more). To me, a t-shirt is the perfect offset to tailored pieces like blazers [1] and trousers for casual chic and exactly what I need to downplay the sweetness of feminine skirts and printed pants [2]. I'll even reach for one as a base layer under slinkier tops and slips that would otherwise be a little too strappy for the office.
If you're a t-shirt fanatic like me, I assume you're always looking for fresh ways to rock your favorite style, whether you are hooked on stripes [3], live for fail-safe solids, or like a little something extra, be it a splash of color, stitch of embroidery, or playful phrase. So I've put together a superstylish assortment of outfits from the street style scene to keep your t-shirt game strong throughout Spring and Summer.
And if you're looking to replenish your stock or, like me, a bit of an addict and want to buy a few new styles for the season just because, shop my favorite affordable t-shirts from the POPSUGAR collection at Kohl's [4], all for $22 or less.
