Your go-to T-shirt might seem basic, but with the right styling tricks, it can take you from casual to chic in no time. Whether you’re working with bold accessories, layering with unexpected fabrics, or switching up silhouettes, there are many ways to elevate your look. It’s all about adding a touch of flair and personality. Here’s how to give your everyday tee a party-ready makeover.
Chain Gang
Of course, the easiest way to style your party outfit is with jewellery. Don’t limit yourself to necklaces and earrings – go ahead and add a chain belt for a party-ready look.
A Sheer Situation
Style your oversized T-shirt with a sheer skirt for a sexy, effortless ensemble. For a touch of party glam, metallic footwear is always a great choice.
Cool in Leather
Whether it’s for day or night, a touch of leather elevates any outfit. So, the next time you find yourself in a wardrobe rut, just slip on a leather skirt or trousers. Take it a step further, like Kim Kardashian, and add layers of bling to complete the look.
Suit Up
Try pairing your T-shirt with a suit – but instead of the usual trousers or skirt combo, style it with a pair of bermuda shorts for a relaxed twist. For a more feminine look, consider strappy high-heeled sandals or pointed pumps
