Style Your Favorite Tee! By Jayna Dave
T-shirts: comfy, simple, and versatile - we all love wearing them! A t-shirt doesn’t need to be limited to lazy days or for sleeping, however. Keep reading for ways to show your advocacy and personality while styling your tee and elevating it while remaining comfortable!
Faux-Cropped
Wearing a cropped t-shirt is one of the easiest ways to be on trend with your outfit. Rather than buying a cropped t-shirt or cutting a t-shirt you already own, try these options. For a shorter look, tuck the hem of the shirt into the bottom of your bra. If you want to create a slightly ruched look, gather your t-shirt until it sits tightly around your waist and tie a rubber band around the extra fabric. You have the option of keeping the knotted fabric as shown, or you can roll it underneath for a more polished look. Faux-cropping your t-shirt accentuates your waist, creating a slimming effect while making the shirt appear dressier. Libby wore her favorite denim jeans with an oversized 5K tee pulled behind her snuggly with a rubber band and then tucked up into itself.

Bike Shorts
In the last few years, bike shorts have become increasingly popular, with many celebrities opting to wear them with oversized t-shirts. Bike shorts offer the comfort of athleisure as well as a cool, effortless look. This versatile pairing is perfect for a gym workout or a day out. With so many options, don’t hesitate to add more t-shirts to your closet. V-neck styles also allow easier access for treatment without compromising comfort or style. Any way you choose, t-shirts can be a great closet staple! Ella took this great Miracles Can Happen tee tied it in the front and tucked it. Paired with leggings or bike shorts, the shirt stands out to make a casual statement. www.brightermagazine.org
