Building a Summer Wardrobe Part 4 - T-Shirts

A well-fitting t-shirt is a summer wardrobe essential. Here's all you need to know about choosing and maintaining t-shirts for the season:

1. Fit and Size:

• Finding the right fit is crucial. Avoid t-shirts that are too short or too tight.
• You want a t-shirt that's in the middle ground, allowing room to breathe when you sit and not looking like an old, stretched-out top.
• Ensure the size fits your torso comfortably, and the length is just right.

2. Neckline:

• A round neck or crew neck is a classic and versatile choice that can work with various looks. It's a safe bet for most outfits.

3. Colours:

• Classic colours like navy and white are always in style. They're versatile and can be paired with a variety of bottoms and outerwear.
• Light grey t-shirts can show sweat marks more easily, so if you tend to perspire, consider choosing a charcoal or dark grey option.

4. Washing and Maintenance:

• To keep your white t-shirt looking fresh and not turning yellow or cream-colored, wash it only with other white items and consider adding a product like Vanish Napisan to maintain its brightness.
• For coloured t-shirts, wash them with similar colours to prevent bleeding.
• After washing, give your t-shirt a flick to shake out any creases. Hanging it on a metal hanger can help maintain its shape.
• Always check the washing instructions on the label to ensure proper care.

5. Styling:

• T-shirts are versatile and pair well with various bottoms, including shorts, jeans, and twill trousers.
• You can also layer a t-shirt with an open shirt or wear it under a jacket for a more polished look.
• Adding a small logo or print to your t-shirt is fine, but be mindful of the scale prints 

Remember that the key to a great summer wardrobe is finding t-shirts that fit well, are easy to maintain, and can be styled in various ways to suit different occasions and personal preferences.
