Can we wear a t-shirt in the evening?

The white t-shirt:a basic to reinvent

No need to draw sequins and rhinestones to go out with your girlfriends! Besides, tinsel is not really your thing and nothing beats the simplicity of a basic. A simple white t-shirt, a must-have in your wardrobe, can do the trick. However, if you do not want to look like you have just left the gym, it is necessary to know some tricks to enhance your favorite piece. The trend is for wide and short t-shirts (above the hips):it's up to you to accessorize it and combine it with other pieces in your wardrobe to make it a hit during your evenings. Worn under a blazer and combined with slim jeans or oiled trousers, it will bring freshness to very marked pieces. The black &white look still having its effect, play with contrasts and bring color with your accessories:a rhinestone clutch, coral pumps or a patterned chèche will enhance your outfit. The principle is simple:the white t-shirt is an all-purpose item, highlight it with strong pieces to give it some shine!

The long t-shirt for a light effect

The trend of the moment is the maxi t-shirt which can be worn like a short dress:by bringing it some well-chosen accessories, you will be sure to make a sensation in your evenings. Avoid t-shirt material (soft cotton) which will give an impression that is too relaxed and unsophisticated. A thicker cotton, a slightly bohemian fluid material or even a sequined model will have the best effect. Bring her accessories by respecting a simple rule:the more your t-shirt is marked (patterns, rhinestones, leather…), the more your accessories must be discreet so as not to add more and not to look disguised. To mark your waist, a belt is essential:choose it thin or thick, colored or discreet depending on your t-shirt. Opaque tights, a knit vest and derbies in winter, or a capeline, kimono and sandals in summer can complete your outfit.

The mixed-material t-shirt:a chic trompe-l’œil

Because a t-shirt is not only synonymous with relaxation, it can also play the card of sophistication and give the impression of being ultra-chic. The dual-material t-shirt is ideal for you if you want to combine style and relaxation. The trick to choosing the right bi-material t-shirt is to select models with noble materials to avoid the neglected appearance of a low-end piece. Lace and leather, flannel and satin or even linen and silk are yours:these material effects will be the best effect to give subtlety to your look. For a restaurant outing, a trip to a nightclub or a simple drink after work, do not hesitate to mix your t-shirt with fitted pants or a skirt to give style to your outfit. The evening bag is essential:clutch or clutch are perfect for remaining discreet while containing the essential minimum for your evening (make-up, cell phone, tissues, etc.).
