Lately I’ve been finding myself drawn to graphic tees when I’m out shopping. They’re comfortable, fun, and expressive. But I think they can also feel a little basic and juvenile if they’re not styled correctly. I’m all for wearing what you love, but I’m a 30 something mom of 2, not a 14 year old girl, so I challenged myself to style one of my faves in a few “grown up” ways.

Look 1

Paired with dark denim, skinny scarf, and a sweater blazer, this tee is ready for a parent-teacher conference or lunch with girlfriends. The sweater blazer keeps this look comfortable, but an actual blazer or structured cardigan would be great too!

Look 2

Dressier than jeans, but just as comfortable, wide leg pants in an unexpected color are perfect for running errands or happy hour with a girlfriend. The beltbag is a fun alternative to a purse and keeps you hands free for shopping or eating!

Look 3

Knotting the tee over a dress makes for an easy breezy look that will take you to the farmers market or dinner out with the family. You could do this with a skirt too, but the advantage to wearing it over a dress with a fitted bodice is you don’t have to worry about any accidental mid-drift exposure. Midi dresses can be challenging if you’re petite like me, so pair them with a heel or nude sandal to elongate the leg.
