Hi Friends, Makeup Artist Katie here...

Do you have an old white T-shirt knocking about in your wardrobe?
I know I do! 👚

Prepare to see your old white T-shirt in a brand-new stylish light! ✹

Tip
1

Add instant style...

with a red lipstick!

Red lipstick is only for special occasions and evenings out, right? 

Wrong! Prepare to make red your new daytime lip of choice! 💄

By pairing red lipstick with something casual like a white T-shirt, the juxtaposition plays down the lipstick, making it look cool and edgy! 💋

The red lip can also dress up the look of the T-shirt, injecting colour and making both much more wearable and quite the stylish, power-duo.

My go-to for a fool-proof red lip is this Empowered Lipstick in Thrive – with a unique formula, expertly created for mature lips 💕

Make a statement...

with accessories!

Jewellery is a great way to dress up a plain white tee! 💍

Indulge in your favourite jewellery and accessories, without the fear of looking too ‘dressy’, as the white T-shirt continues to provide that casual feel.

Try adding statement costume jewellery, like a bold pair of earrings or a chunky necklace to accent your plain white tee ✹

The juxtaposition of wearing something dressy with something casual is an easy and fun way to refresh and mix-up your look.

Tip
3

Style your tee...

with a front tuck!

It’s not just accessories that can be paired with a white T-shirt – how about digging out some of your smarter trousers and teaming them with a white t-shirt for a more casual, relaxed vibe?

Smarter trousers aren’t only for formal occasions, did you know the ‘half-tuck’ trick can transform them into a stylish day-wear option too! 🙌

If you haven’t heard of the ‘half-tuck’, then I urge you to try it! Simply tuck in the front of your T-shirt, giving the front a ‘ruched’ effect and
Ta-Da! ✹

You now look like you’ve effortlessly thrown together a chic outfit before dashing out of the house!

Pop on a blazer...

for a chic vibe!

Have to run out somewhere and need to look polished, perhaps lunch with your girlfriends? The easiest solution is to throw on your favourite jeans, a white tee and a great blazer! 👖

Blazers can sometimes be hard to style in a way that doesn’t make them look overdone. But a simple white tee is the perfect, classic base for your outfit. The combination is incredibly chic and cool! 😎

5

Team it up...

with a dress or jumpsuit!

Why not try transforming your dresses and jumpsuits by pairing a fitted white tee underneath?

This tip works great if you have a cute jumpsuit or dress with a neckline that’s a little too deep 👗

Plus, almost any sleeveless dress looks great over the top of a classic fitted tee. The trick is to find a tee fitted enough to lie flat under the dress.

I hope I’ve inspired some excitement to dig out that white T-shirt and start experimenting!

Who’d have thought a few simple tips could revive a plain white T-shirt? 👏

Love,
