THE T-SHIRT
It's a staple for every season
It's a piece that will take you from day to night
It's the item you can fall asleep in, or wear with your most precious of jewels
It can be yours, your man's or your mums
Little Red Dress shows you how to make the most of this timeless and foolproof trend, by styling the classic 'T' into our five favourite categories
The Cropped T
Teamed with your favourite high waisted short or those slim fit jeans that make your legs go for days, a cropped style T is a summer must have. Eliminating fabric bunching when tucked in and cutting at the perfect waist height, the cropped t shows off your figure in the most wearable way! For a fresh daytime nautical look like Charlotte's, matching the white Staple top with the adorable blue pinstripe Woodford & Co jagger shorts, it takes but a few fun accessories like the Indy C straw fedora and taupe clutch to take her look from a lunch date to an evening drink.
The Printed T
The printed T is the best way to work a little rockstar into your outfit. This gorgeous
Woodford & Co Eagle shirt, with its soft neutral colour palette can be teamed with almost anything! Put it with a panelled tube skirt and wedges like the stunning
Lilya detroit wedge above for an effortless but oh so trendy night time look. Tone it down with a comfortable and soft high waisted short such as the
Wish mile short in the similar colour palette for more of a day to day outfit. And lets not forget the accessories! Whether you go the chunky option like the
Adorne tortoiseshell chain to weigh down the T or something a little finer like the
Samantha Wills orient express chain, the neckline of a T-shirt like this screams for a necklace!
The Knitted T
The knitted T is one of those items which can be worn over your bikini in the height of summer, or styled up a little more like Charlotte shows when teamed with a maxi (Bec&Bridge) or wide leg pants (Talulah) . With anything crochet its all about the layering! The sheer fabric, particularly in this gorgeous Lilya candelas knitted poncho style top, gives any outfit an edge of bohemian comfort. You will be thanking us when summer roles in because of how incredible cool and breezy this one is! Charlotte is also sporting the Samantha Wills romancing the stonenecklace (above) and the House of Harlow station necklace(below) in these shots.
The Boyfriend style T
Probably my favourite style, because of its ease and comfort, the 'boyfriend' style T describes any kind of oversized design. Cuffed, knotted, tucked or rolled- the boyfriend T gives you that instant "I just rolled out of bed and look how fabulous I am" glamour! Charlotte shows two ways to wear this Woodford& Co cruise T-shirt: either with a statement pant (One Teaspoon vegas pistols) and heel or a fitted skirt (Alice McCall ladybird ) perfect for layering.
The Embellished T
The perfect marriage between easy to wear style and a little bling= The embellished T. Like this Wish orbit blouse that Charlotte wears with the Lucette silk cargos and then the Posh waisted skirt. This is the prime example of comfort meets glam! A T that wants to be taken out to clubs, but can also be toned down for a more "corporate chic" trend, it is an item that would not go unnoticed in your wardrobe!
