6 Ways to Wear a $15 T-Shirt

May 25, 2022

In my post about casual mom outfit ideas, I lauded the benefits of t-shirts with extra details making them feel elevated. They can take you from jean shorts and sandals to date night. Today I am bringing you another similar piece. Here’s 6 ways to wear a $15 t-shirt! This adorable piece has the cutest eyelet sleeves and detailing on the side. It comes in four colors which is good since the one I am sharing is already getting picked over.

#1 With a Skirt/Skort for Date Night

I love this blue and white gingham skort masquerading as a skirt. It’s perfect with this top tucked in with either flats or heels for a cute date night outfit idea. I last shared this skort here, and it is on major sale right now. Such a good piece!!

#2 With Regular Denim

As I mentioned, this tee is easily dressed down with regular denim shorts. Shop mine here.

#3 Pair it with Jeans

Another easy way to style this top is with jeans like my favorite $27 pair. It looks great with blue denim.

#4 White Jeans

I love the bright top in contrast to the white jeans (shop mine here and here)! You can easily add a layer like a utility jacket too. For the most part, I kept my looks free of layers simply because I wanted to let the fun sleeves stand out. It does fit easily under any jacket though. I added my favorite Amazon mules. This look seems perfect for a casual office environment to me.

I'm sharing 6 ways to wear a $15 t-shirt with special details that can take you from date night to mom mode in no time! I love the pop of color with white denim.

#5 White Jean Shorts

Just like it pairs well with white jeans, this top looks super cute with white jean shorts. I love how it works with my mom sandals (sooo comfy!!) just as easily as it does with a dressier shoe.

#6 Under Overalls

Last but not least in my 6 ways to wear a $15 shirt is to put it under overalls! I think the fun, girly sleeves of this top make it the perfect choice for a more typically masculine look. My exact overalls are older from Madewell, but Old Navy has a great pair out this season.
