    Wearing Men's T Shirts

    LAST UPDATED: February 1, 2019 PUBLISHED: April 25, 2018 By Pam Greer 3 Comments As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.

    I'm too old and married to say that I am wearing a boyfriend tee, but that is basically what I am doing.   Wearing men's t shirts gives me inexpensive options for my capsule wardrobe.

    Wearing White Men's T Shirts

    A couple of week's ago, I did a post talking about my white t shirt for my Spring Capsule Wardrobe.   In that post, I mentioned that I wear white men's t shirts.  A couple of people asked to see photos of what they look like on.  So, here you go.   I've paired them with Lee Jeans (Modern Dream Jeans, Similar Levi Style) and Adidas Tennis Shoes (Black and White, Blush that I Want!)

    Size Medium Men's for a Looser Look

    I buy Men's V Neck t shirts in packets of six (Fruit of the Loom), in two different sizes.  I buy a package of mediums (the first two pictures) and I buy a package of smalls (photo below.)  You can see in the first two photos that the medium is a loose fit.

    I wear these almost every day in the summer.  I don't know what your summer looks like, but I spend a lot of time in the garden.  These shirts get dirty and sweaty and it saves my nice white t shirts for other days.

    You can see that the men's small fits a little snugger.  It is not quite as loose.  I tend to wear these other outdoor activities, like food or music events.  There is still a good chance that they are going to get food spilled on them, sweaty and dirty.

    Now, I am not saying that these are adorable fashion statements.  But for what I wear them for, they are perfect.  I can't afford to be wearing nice white t shirts when I am out pulling weeds.  At the beginning of each summer, I check my stack and figure out how many are still wearable.  Some get put in the rags pile, and I buy a new package of six.  Easy peasy.

      Me too, love the fit and feel of a simple men's tee. You've inspired me to try them in Small - the fit looks smart on you. Thanks for linking up, xo

      That makes sense to wear them while working or just hanging out. I've never thought to give them a try for me. I'll borrow one of my husbands and see how that works. If I like it, I'll buy more and give him one back...
      Have a great weekend Pam.
