As summer courses are coming to an end and final exams are around the corner, we realize how fast time has gone by and, more importantly, how quickly the summer is going by. In these short couple of months, we’ve learned a ton in a relatively concise period of time. Whether it was business, art or fashion we’ve been studying, it feels like we have a lot to show for it.
When you think of finals, you think of comfort and what better way to celebrate an amazing (and blazing) summer semester than to show off all the stripes you’ve earned? This Fashionista chose to wear a timeless and comfy, striped T-shirt to class, but what really stood out to me was the cute bright red accent pocket. Now, we’ve all seen these pocket T-shirts in some of our favorite retail stores like Anthropologie or Urban Outfitters. Not only do they feature a handy flap pocket, but the variety in accent/chest pockets give off a super unique vibe.
Her T-shirt provides a wide-neck for a more open and relaxed fit, which I love. These colorful, yet basic tops are totally necessary, especially when you’re in a rush and you know you’re going to have a languorous day. Moreover, I liked how she put it together with a simple pair of jeans and slip-on flats, but then went on to add an adorable gold keychain necklace and watch. The contrasting chest pocket delivers a standout style with a laid back feel.
How To: For a DIY, these T-shirts are super fun and easy to make! Just grab a pocket patch of your liking that fits your unique style and transform any of your casual T-shirts into a vibrant, contrasting go-to top. You can even add a monogrammed chest pocket for a personalized effect; it’s a classic look, but with a cool twist.
