Last week I received a request from a lovely Pretty Chuffed reader who is looking for the perfect white t-shirt. She wanted something affordable, yet comfortable, and obviously, stylish. I have some slight personal bias here – I think a looser (yet not baggy) style t-shirt, with a slight scoop or v-neck is the most flattering on most women, and the most versatile. Worn with a slight front tuck into jeans, tucked fully into a midi skirt, or with a printed pair of pants – a white t-shirt is an absolute wardrobe staple and I think everyone needs at least one in their wardrobe.
On receiving the request, I went on a bit of a white t-shirt investigation myself. Firstly, I asked Pretty Chuffed Facebook readers where their favourite white t-shirts were from, and then I set out to try a couple on myself. What I found might surprise you, and I’ve featured a few of my favourites below, with notes next to those I tried on and those that readers recommended. And, best of all, you really don’t need to spend a fortune to get a great t-shirt – the perfect white t-shirt for you might be just $4.
Jay Jays raglan t-shirt AUD$10 (I tried this on – it’s great for the price)
ASOS Maternity t-shirt AUD$12.50
Cotton On The One boyfriend t-shirt AUD$14.95 (reader recommendation)
Jay Jays t-shirt AUD$20 (I tried this one – it’s soft and good quality for the price)
Sussan white t-shirt AUD$29.95 (reader recommendation)
Sportsgirl t-shirt AUD$29.95 (reader recommendation)
Metalicus t-shirt AUD$99.95 (I have a striped version of this- it’s luxe, comfy and soft)
Do you have a faboruite white t-shirt? Where is it from?
