A t-shirt is a wardrobe basic for anyone because they can be worn in a variety of different outings. When purchasing a basic t-shirt it is important to consider the overall fit so that it does not appear too slouchy or revealing.

T-shirts come in a variety of styles including boat, scoop, V or crew neck. They can also feature very short sleeves or sleeves that go to the elbows. These shirts can be worn alone, underneath clothing or layered.

Choosing the right t-shirt can take some time so when you find it make sure to stock up. If it is a decent price buy a few in your favorite colors and add in a few brights for summer days.

The right t-shirt should be tighter across the chest and simply flow away from the body slightly throughout the mid-section. Some great places to shop for basic t-shirts includes Sears and J C Penney.

The right t-shirt does not have to be designer or expensive, it just has to fit correctly. Look closely to make sure the stitching is quality and that the materials are a cotton-blend. T-shirts vary greatly in price, being anywhere from $10 to $40.

Once you have the right t-shirt think about ways to dress it up and down.
