Spin-Off of the Shirt Thread: Do You Wear T-Shirts

[Christine]

I wear them but they *must* be fitted or a look like a frump. Generally I just wear them in the summer when it's super hot out.

I bought some cute "themed" shirts before one of my Disney trips and I ended up loving them. One had a pineapple on the front that was a little glitzy, one had elephants and other things on it (which became my Animal Kingdom shirt), and another had some sort of strange motif on it that just happened to match a pair of blue shorts I had. They were very fitted, very thin and cool, and strangers in the park complimented me on them (got them at Ann Taylor!!).

So yes, I wear them but they aren't what I would consider a frumpy, boxy, baggy, or sloppy.

I voted yes. I have a lot that depending on the condition of the shirt, some of my older ones I wear just at home.

Bob Marley,Selena,Johnny Cash, Yo MTV Raps,etc.

 

[CallieMar]

Yes. I have a lot of cute concert or nerdy tees that are fitted/women's cut. I also like to buy inexpensive souvenir unisex tshirts on our travels and wear those as pajamas or loungewear.

My office is business casual but since we've been working remotely during the pandemic it's strictly tshirts and tank tops nowadays.

 

[georgina]

Yep, wear T-shirts often. I don't work so can wear them all day. Don't care what other people think about how I look, so look like a frump? Heck yeah, why not? As long as I am comfortable and happy with how I look, I'm fine.

 

[BlueStarryHat]

I wear them every day. They fall into three categories:

1. 'Good.' Okay to wear out over sweatpants, leggings or shorts. Yes, I iron them before wearing.
2. 'One Stain.' Okay to wear around the house.
3. 'More Than One Stain.' Okay to sleep in.

Pretty much live in t-shirts. I loathe any sort of dressing up, and only wear a nice blouse if I absolutely have to. Most of my shirts are plain Big Men's Ts because they fit me better. I hate 'women's cut' t-shirts that nip in at the waist and have shorter sleeves. I look like an overstuffed sofa in them. A lot of them are Disney souvenir shirts.

 

[dosekies]

They’re pretty much all I wear outside of work. I enjoy collecting them from various concerts and places I’ve visited, as well as just finding cute/funny ones while shopping.

 

[Sabeking]

I typically wear a t-shirt with nothing written on it. If it has a logo or slogan I have to really like it and that’s rare.

 

[mommasita]

I voted no. I think I own 2 , they are both work related, and something I wear/switch into on an abnormally hot night. I think they just don’t suit me, I prefer something more fitting or tailored I guess. Also, I don’t like the collar, I detest things touching my neck, so that collar line is not for me.

 

[Kathryn Merteuil]

Yes I wear them on occasion... more since working from home.

 

[Feralpeg]

Every day.

 

[Heather07438]

More than half the shirts in my wardrobe are some sort of tee running the range from graphic to styled.

Today I'm wearing kinda of tunic style in light stone lilac with leggings. It has some details on the rolled sleeves.
Comfortable, presentable and best of all, cotton! The fabric of our lives Remember that commercial?

 

[Diznygrl]

I wear some ladies cut tees, but I don't do the thick, boxy, up-to-your-neck shirts that I think of when someone says "t-shirt". Not only are they unflattering on me (broad upper body) but I find them to be far too hot. If it's warm enough to go bare-armed then I need something thinner and more easy-breezy.

 

[Jennasis]

Sure! I've got plain and plenty of Disney and Star Wars ones as well as a few others.

 

[Jedimom33]

Used to not.....now pretty rare if I don't have a Star wars shirt, or something similar, every day. Finally found a few companies, like Her Universe and Fifth Sun and Redbubble that made good women's shirts. Disney too sometimes, but then others I order are WAY too tight (I think Juniors) Also add in a Harry Potter or so from time to time. Need more! and actually realized recently, have very few Disney t-shirts. Hard to find the right fit sometimes with them . Been a long time since I bought any shirts as souvenirs, because they'd just sit. Now I want to wear them!

 

[mnrose]

My go to stay at home outfit is a t shirt with seasonally appropriate bottoms. T shirts are comfortable. Unless I'm going for an "exercise walk", I rarely wear them outside the home, however. I have a whole bunch of tshirts that I've picked up over the years. The oldest one I wear is a Springsteen t shirt from 1984. :-D

 

[Dan Murphy]

White Jockey V-neck T-shirt around the house. Always the same type of shirt under typically a button down shirt, long or short sleeved when I am not at home.

 

[Nox]

Yes, I wear them.

I have a hard body type to "fit." I have a long torso, broad, square shoulders, but a small ribcage and waist. Tees are about all that don't make me look weird outside of "body contouring" shirts and tailored button-downs.

 

[aprilchem]

No. I own two of them, which I occasionally wear to sleep in but not often. Only when the rest of my PJs are dirty.

Do You Wear T-Shirts


Pretty much every day.....

I have a t-shirt collection (started over 40 years ago). Even after doing some culling to the collection about a year ago, I have over 300 of them. A different one every day, unless I'm going somewhere dressy, then I do have regular blouses to wear.

Today's shirt - In-N-Out. Got it about 15 years ago.

Good gravy...that's astonishing! Where do you keep them? I've never got enough closet space and I'm at the point that getting something new pretty much requires getting rid of something old. Not including underwear and socks, my entire wardrobe is probably less than 100 pieces.

More than half the shirts in my wardrobe are some sort of tee running the range from graphic to styled.

Today I'm wearing kinda of tunic style in light stone lilac with leggings. It has some details on the rolled sleeves.

I have quite a few tops like that - t-shirty type material but in a totally different style and with pretty, feminine details. It doesn't really occur to me to consider them t-shirts.

Guess I see them that way because they're mostly too casual for the office. They get their own side of the closet.

As for standard tees, usually not good. They feel like a tube Too rigid & bunchy, and up to the neck is suffocating.
