The White T-Shirt

1 - Go for quality
 
To everyone's preferences, but my thing is the fabric. Thicker and tighter material will probably retain its shape longer than a lighter one. Transparency, "Sheer" is really trendy right now, but it's really not forgiving when it comes to hiding a bump or a detail, so you may want to wear a cami underneath.

2 - The quantity is also important

 Everyone should have more than one type of t-shirt in their drawers (from the form fitting one, to a looser version). Also do not forget to have a selection of different necklines (V-round, button, notched) which provides that edgy detail we're looking for  in each outfit. The beauty of the white t-shirt is its versatility: the more models you have on hand, the better your options will be to assemble your looks.

3 - Knowing where to shop

You mentally prepared a list of criteria for your perfect white t-shirt, but you don't know where to find that perfect specimen? For brands, I tend to go for James Perse & Splendid  which you can find at Holt Renfrew. There is also the Boutique Mimi & Coco and J. Crew who make excellent products. For good quality at a lower price I would suggest the Gap, Banana Republic, Zara and H&M.

4-Finally, know when to let go

White does not remain pristine forever. If you wear deodorant, you will surely get unsightly yellow markings which are not easy to remove. It is important to include the renewal of these in our seasonal budget. It also give us a chance to better follow and enjoy new trends.

And you, where do you get your basic items?
