Hey gorgeous! In clothing, size matters arguably more than anything else. A well-fitted jacket can work from office to night-out, and an oversized tee shirt can be a challenge to style. Many girls prefer oversized clothing, but to create a cute outfit with them is quite a task, even for me! And that’s why I took it as a challenge when Gap sent me this cute t shirt that’s a size S and yet so huge for me!

How to Style an Oversized Tee Shirt

The trick to styling any oversized piece of clothing is to pair it with something well-fitted, so that the overall outfit doesn’t look frumpy. So if you have an oversized shirt, whether it’s a gift, or an impulse-buy, pair it with a tight (but not undersized) skirt, or a pair of skinny jeans or skinny leather leggings. You can also wear oversized button-up shirts over black or white sexy camis or tank tops, and leave the top two-three buttons undone.

If you want to add more structure to your look, wear a belt to cinch in your waist, or tuck in one end of your tee shirt to give a casual feel.

I tried to create a casual, street-style outfit with my Gap t shirt. I never wear oversized or baggy clothing, so I used some style ideas to make this look suit my personal style. For example, I wore the lapis blue tee with a matching floral skirt to create a monotonous outfit, and also paired it with nude strappy heels to add elegance and allure! I added a murano bead necklace as a belt, and another mini-bead bracelet and lapis blue drop earrings.

I kept my hair really undone (sort of) to create an out-of-bed look. To do this, I back-combed it on top after washing (when they were quite untamed and wavy) to create a bouncy, messy hairstyle. This look goes well with the super-casual oversized tee!

The makeup I did with this look was really light and casual. I put emphasis on the skin, using no concealer but a double layer of light-weight foundation to create an even skin-tone, but one that doesn’t cover the under-eye circles or natural imperfections. It’s a wearable, day-wear look. Then I used liquid eyeliner to create a cat-eye look and paired it with light pink lipstick over lip-balm. It’s a great makeup look for daytime outings, college and shopping.
