AAAAAAHHHHH Spring! I can’t believe it’s finally here…it has been a long, cold, uncomfortable winter!
Now even though it is spring it’s far from short sleeve weather, here at least…so it’s time for layers… but cute ones, of course! I really love a good graphic t-shirt for the message, stylishness or just pure comfort. Because as you all know I am BIG on comfort. There also may be a few “winter inches” lingering on me at the moment so I’m not comfortable with just the T-shirt alone so adding the blazer, jacket, or sweater just adds more comfort, style and actually makes it an outfit. Plus it covers my unsightly areas too…bonus!
I have seen so many pics on Instagram, Pinterest, magazines, and TV of these awesome graphic tee outfits. I personally have always loved this look and it’s a classic so you can’t go wrong. But some of these looks that I have seen are way too pricey for this thrifty girl….so my quest for great deals began! After much researching,comparing, contemplating, and ordering (of course) I ended up finding almost all the pieces online and at really great prices even with the shipping costs.
To keep the cute but comfy theme I’ve paired them with jeans (my personal favorite) and who doesn’t love a bright, new, crisp, white (or silver!) sneaker in spring. I think the silver sneaker gives it a even more updated look. I’ve also added a nude pair of low heels if you wanted to dress it up a bit.
I certainly had no trouble finding cute graphic t-shirts, actually found way too many so I narrowed it down to the few that “spoke” to me. Also just had to throw in the leopard print t-shirt…because leopard is back big right now and I love it!
Below are just a sampling of the pics I have seen and lusted after. I have also included my versions of each outfit in a wardrobe planning “diagram” this time so that you can see how it all works together. The beauty of these tees, jackets, sweaters, jeans and shoes that I have selected is that they are pretty much interchangeable. So get a few and mix and match and have fun with it!
