White T-shirt, unbuttoned shirt… or all the way up? 🤔
Combining a T-shirt with an overshirt is one of the easiest ways to add depth to your look. Whether it’s a casual hangout or a relaxed business vibe, layering brings structure and personality to your outfit.
Let’s explore how to wear it right—without looking like you just threw something on. 👌
1️⃣ Why does this combo work so well?
✔️ Adds dimension to your outfit
✔️ Practical for changing temperatures
✔️ Looks intentional and clean
✔️ Gives you style flexibility
📝 Pro tip: Go for a shirt that’s soft and breathable—you want it to hang naturally when worn open.

2️⃣ How to get the look right
✔️ Colour & contrast
– Neutral T-shirt + patterned or coloured shirt
– Or vice versa: bold tee + minimal overshirt
✔️ Fit
– The T-shirt should fit close to the body (but not tight)
– The shirt should be a relaxed fit so it sits well over your tee
✔️ Materials
– Go for cotton, linen, or jersey
– Leave flannel or heavy fabric for cooler seasons
