t‑shirts: How to pick, style, and care for the perfect tee

Every wardrobe needs a solid collection of t‑shirts. They’re the base of casual looks, the go‑to for layering, and surprisingly versatile for work‑away outfits. The right tee feels comfortable, looks good, and lasts. Below you’ll find simple steps to choose the best fabric, fit, and color, plus easy care tips so your tees stay fresh longer.

Choosing the right t‑shirt

Start with fabric. 100% cotton is breathable and soft, making it ideal for everyday wear. If you need something that holds its shape, look for a cotton‑poly blend – it resists shrinkage and feels a bit sturdier. For a premium feel, consider pima or organic cotton; the fibers are longer, so the shirt feels smoother and lasts longer.

Fit matters just as much as fabric. A classic crew neck sits comfortably on the shoulders, while a V‑neck can add a slimming line. If you’re into a modern look, a slim‑fit tee follows the body’s shape without being tight. For relaxed vibes, go for a regular or oversized cut – just make sure the shoulder seam aligns with your shoulder bone, not a few inches off.

Color is the easiest way to switch up your style. Neutral shades like white, black, gray, and navy pair with almost anything. If you want a pop, choose a bold hue that matches your skin tone – cool undertones look great in blues and greens, while warm undertones shine in reds and oranges. Stripes or subtle patterns can add interest without overwhelming your outfit.

Styling and caring for your t‑shirts

Layer smart. A plain tee under a denim jacket or a blazer instantly upgrades a casual look. Pair a fitted white tee with chinos for a clean, semi‑formal vibe. For a relaxed weekend, throw a graphic tee over a long‑sleeve shirt and team it with joggers.

Keep your tees looking new with gentle care. Turn them inside out before washing to protect prints. Use cold water and a mild detergent – hot water can cause cotton to shrink. Skip the dryer when you can; air‑drying reduces wear and preserves shape. If you must use a dryer, choose a low‑heat setting and remove the shirt while it’s still slightly damp, then lay flat.

When it comes to storage, fold tees along the seam to avoid creases. Stacking them in a drawer works, but hanging a few favorite tees on a hanger keeps them wrinkle‑free and ready to wear. If you notice a small pilling spot, a fabric shaver can smooth it out without damaging the material.
