The Graphic Tee and Skirt Trend

I’m sure you’ve seen the graphic tee and skirt trend going around. Or maybe you saw it here, way back in 2014 ;). I did a cute post HERE on one with a midi skirt… Jackson was about 6 months and I was on my lunch break haha! What a journey. Anyway, I’m still into pairing graphic tees with anything, but love making them dressy. I’m picky about the graphic tee though and I honestly can’t explain what I look for in one. I just don’t like it too cheesy or try-hard. I like the collar neck to be pretty high, not like a scoop neck. I like the material to be actual tee shirt if possible, not slinky or thin. I sometimes like the boyfriend fit but mainly fitted… yet not the ‘women’s fit’ (kind of slender at the waist) that you find tees in most stores. I know all this sounds crazy, but if ya know, ya know.

This graphic tee and skirt pairing from NYFW was pretty much by accident. I was wearing my Anthro chunky sweater over it all and belted it, but I got really hot. So luckily I had this graphic tee on underneath and just went with it for the day. This Elle one is by one of my favorite brands and Anthro carries them. I’m always asked about this one specifically, and this is one I found in a sample sale bin at the Mart. I did scour the internet and found you my favorite graphic tees out there right now. You can shop everything below. My teal pleated midi skirt is a great deal from Shein, and so well made. I’ve had a few from there that were kind of thin and see through, but this one is thick and really good!
