A colorful graphic tee (like the Henry Holland ones above) will make your outfit stand out. However, if it’s not usually your style, it can be hard to incorporate one into your ensemble without looking too casual, too punky, or like you’re trying too hard.

Below are a few examples for different ways to rock the graphic tee. You can pair one with dressier items for a more glam look, or work it with some basic jeans and fun accessories for the more casual version. Whatever you do, have fun with it. These shirts aren’t mean to be taken seriously.

1. With jeans, heels, and some sparkly accessories for a nighttime look with a casual vibe:

2. For a night out on the town, pair a graphic tee with a sparkly mini skirt, tights, and heels. Make sure you throw in a bright color or two somewhere as well.

3. Cute but casual. Rock a colorful tee with cuffed jeans and bright heels – just make sure the colors all complement one another. There is a fine line between cute-and-casual and overdone-and-cheesy. Wear this look to the mall or to class.

Remember: pulling off the graphic tee is all about OD’ing on accessories, funky colors, and confidence. Have fun with it and soon all your friends will be jealous of your new (non-Ed Hardy) style.

    the first look is like my signature look. I don't get too dressy too often. But I love the "sexy without trying" t-shirt look.
