Simple yet Stylish T-Shirt Coordinates
Add a Twist When Putting Together Coordinates with White and Black Tees
Our first T-shirt coordinates feature black and white tees, the two essentials of solid-color tees. These versatile tees go with everything, but their simplicity makes them surprisingly difficult for many to style. With these tees, the trick is to use the size and fabric, and here’s how to do it.
Size Is Important in Women’s White Tee and Shorts Coordinates
The balance that’s achieved by using contrastive sizes is the key to a sophisticated white tee look. If the tee is small or snug, then choose bottoms that have a big silhouette. Conversely, if the tee is oversized, then you’ll want to choose bottoms that have a slim or trim silhouette. The trick is to contrast the top and bottoms. A simple yet stylish and sophisticated look is yours when you aim for balance in this way. And this works not only for shorts but for pants and skirts as well!

It’s Better to Stick To a Black and White Color Coordinate if You’re After a Sophisticated Men’s White Tee Look
Try a black-and-white combination if you’re looking to stylishly coordinate a simple, solid white tee. A relaxed athleisure look is yours when you pair the white tee to black joggers. Laid-back arrangements are also yours when you coordinate sporty bottoms, like ankle-length pants and half pants. Sophistication results even when basic jeans or slacks are paired, as long as the black-and-white palette is retained. Add cap, sunglasses, and other accessories to complete a stylish T-shirt look.

Use Different Fabrics to Make a Difference When Putting Together Women’s Black Tee Summer Looks
Simple black tees are easy to coordinate with clean-look items, so they’re great for people who are hesitant to try casual arrangements. The trick to avoiding a heavy feel is to coordinate bottoms that are made of breezy fabrics, like linen or chiffon. Black goes with any color, so try mixing bright colors as well and have fun coordinating in color.

A Stylish Combination of Colors Is the Key to a Cool Coordinate of Black Tee and Shorts
A single mistake can turn a tee and shorts coordinate into a kiddie look, but the choice of a black tee ensures taste and sophistication. Simply coordinate olive chinos to complete a chic, casual look. Remember to add a leather or faux leather bag to prevent the look from becoming too simple.

The Simplicity of Tees Is All the More Reason to Have Fun with Colors: The Coordinates to Try for Specific Colors
A simple tee and jeans look gains a new feel when the tee is switched out in favor of a colored model. You might be one of many who aren’t quite sure how to coordinate colors, but this is a technique that you’ll want to try because once you grasp the basics you can easily do this with existing items.
Light Blue and Navy Are Popular, Too! Coordinate Blue Tees and Blue Jeans
Blue comes in a wide range of shades, from light blue to navy, but you’ll want to try coordinating blue tees with similarly blue jeans. Men should try combining dark tones, namely a navy tee and unfaded jeans. Remember to choose a relaxed fit to produce a laid-back feel. Women might want to try a tee that’s on-trend light blue over blue jeans that have a relaxed, tapered silhouette.

From Basic Olive to Mint Green! Try Coordinating the Colors of Nature When Styling Green T-Shirts
Olive is the first name in green, but mint green is gaining in popularity. You’ll want to give a mix of green and brown hues a try. It may seem difficult, but they go well together because they’re both earth colors. Men might want to try an olive tee and beige chinos. For the bag, choose black because the color tightens looks. The light green tee of the women’s arrangement forms a great-looking balance with deep brown chinos. Coordinate leather or faux leather peripherals, like a belt and bag, to complete a tastefully clean-look T-shirt arrangement.

Breathe New Life into Your Regular Coordinates! Pair a Purple T-Shirt and a Black Item to Make a Chic Arrangement
A solid-color tee may be simple, but if it’s purple, it alone will catch the eye. Choose black for the coordinated items. It’ll bring out the color to produce a chic T-shirt coordinate. Men should go classic casual by simply pairing a purple tee and basic chinos. Add playful touches, like a hat and sandals, to prevent the look from becoming too simple. Women might want to coordinate an on-trend camisole dress and make a sophisticated, yet laid-back look.

Looks that are Fabulous with Cool Tones: Brown Brings Sophistication to T-Shirt Coordinates
Whether beige, terracotta, or deep brown, you’ll want to choose the color if you’re looking to bring sophistication to your T-shirt coordinates. Moreover, brown is versatile, lending itself to both on- and off-duty looks. While it naturally looks fabulous with basic colors, it’s easy to coordinate with cool colors. Even a simple men’s coordinate that pairs a tee and shorts still catches the eye if brown is added to the mix. Women might want to add a gorgeous flourish by selecting glossy wide-leg pants.

Coordinate Muted Tones, Like Light Lavender and Salmon Pink, with Dark Colors
Lavender, salmon pink, and other pastels may seem like they’re hard to coordinate, but in fact they go great with dark colors. Older people who are hesitant to style a T-shirt as is should consider wearing the tee under another item and using it as the item that provides the accent color. A casual look that still shows classy results when you add a pastel tee to a coordinate. Pick the color for the tee, and pair the tee and overalls to complete a simple yet super trendy T-shirt coordinate.

Q&A About the Concerns Related to T-Shirt Coordinates
For some people, the very simplicity of T-shirts makes them surprisingly difficult to style. Let’s answer some of the main concerns.
Q. Styled looks that are built around T-shirt dresses and long T-shirts begin to look the same. How can I avoid this?
While a T-shirt dress can be styled as is, the simplicity of its design is an advantage because it enables more styling options. For example, drape a cardigan over your shoulders. Experiment with peripherals. Or use a belt to cinch the waist, and blouse for the top half. If the tee dress isn’t too long, then wear it over a pair of pants and add depth to the arrangement. There’s a tendency to pair long T-shirts and pants, but you’ll want to consider pairing a long tee and a midi or maxi skirt and make a laid-back look. The use of contrastive or daring colors can produce a sophisticated appearance and elevate a casual T-shirt coordinate into a fashion statement.

Q. I am not comfortable with my upper arms. What should I do?
The T-shirt is not as simple as you might expect. The neckline, sleeve configuration, cut, vary. Women who are concerned about their arms should avoid T-shirts whose sleeves are relatively short and snug because such sleeves tend to reveal the widest contours of the upper arms. There are sleeve designs that generally produce slenderer-looking upper arms, although the appropriate sleeve design will vary by the wearer’s body type. For example, French sleeves produce a nicer appearance because their wide openings are neither too close nor too far from the upper arms. A loose oversized T-shirt also reassuringly keeps potentially embarrassing upper arms out of sight. Rolling up the sleeves has the advantage of producing a smaller silhouette on top of a wholesome, laid-back appearance. Choose the design that’s right for you, and have fun styling T-shirts.
I’m in my fifties. How do I stylishly coordinate a T-shirt?
Mature adults should prioritize the fabric’s quality and color choice when choosing a tee. It’s better to choose chunky fabrics because, even though thin fabrics are cool, they’ll reveal body lines. Wide ribbing along the neckline produces a casual appearance, so you’ll want to choose narrow ribbing if you want to put together a clean-look arrangement. Dark colors tighten the look more than light colors. But, pay attention to the overall balance of colors to prevent the look from becoming too heavy.
