getting graphic.

i am a people person. it is what it is. i will talk to a wall about my life story. i love conversations and getting in a word or two..... ok maybe a little more than two. but i know that is not everyone's personality. wouldn't it be nice to give someone a view inside your head without even having to say a word? if yes, let me introduce you to a trend that you will love- the statement tee.

you have probably seen these many of times, but there are specifics (of course). the "i am with stupid" oversized shirts are NOT what i want you strutting the streets in. absolutely not. those should not exist. yet little sayings, such as i show in my pics below, give your outfit a cute personal spunk.

carefully shuffle through the many sites to find the tees that mean the most to you specifically. usually smaller boutiques with instagram pages are the best to hunt the perf tees down. bold lettering on a white tee can say a lot about you while your mouth is completely closed. 

why do i love these? as a college student, usually the easiest route is my favorite. and this is one of the easiest to follow. all it takes is a couple of tees and the right pairings. find the one and tuck it into a maxi skirt with a leather jacket. friday night here you come. or for a lazy monday, take your cigarette pants, let the tee hang loose and pick out your favorite blazer to pull it all together. 

here is my warning. it is easy to run wild with this. i have fallen into the trap myself. but three tees are plenty to work into the wardrobe.  if you overload, you will be stuck with too many basics and not the remaining closest essentials. there can be too much of one thing (except for the color black. you can never own too much black). i digress, when you know you know. so search until you find the one. fall in love. snatch it up for a happily ever after. wait, am i still talking about t-shirts?

say hello to my quirky laugh and my first personal outfit pic. posing in front of tulsa lights, i am showing you my favorite tee thus far. i wore it tucked into my acid wash comfy joggers and paired with crimson booties and a studded blazer for an enjoyable night on brookside.

shout out to my art feeds best friends for showing me this one. a cool little shop called arsenic and lace has a few super cute choices to pick from. my choice was the johnny cash lyrics of course.
