How To Styles Oversized Shirts
Embrace Comfort
Sometimes we need to admit that comfort is key. Crop tops, bodysuits, and dresses all have their place, but we shouldn’t overlook the effortless style of oversized shirts.
Not only that but owning a couple of oversized items is important for anyone on the go. Running errands in comfortable clothes is vital, but make sure you look stylish while doing it!
What Shirt Should You Choose?
Different baggy shirts can give different looks, so assess your style and imagine what you’d feel best in.
Classic men’s shirts were embraced by women in the 1920s. This look became a way of rebelling against the feminine look women had worn for decades before. However, now it’s normal for girls to rock baggy shirts or shirtdresses and they can even be made feminine to support both aesthetics.
If you want a chic and elegant look, opt for a button-down. These are less casual than baggy tees, however, they can be dressed up or down depending on your preference. There are also so many different types of button-downs too! A silky shirt will give you a soft look, whereas a denim shirt will give you an edgier vibe. Accessories and pants can also completely change the look of an outfit, so even the simplest white button-down will look unique.

When looking for shirts, always remember to check thrift stores. Thrift stores always have an abundance of oversized shirts in the men’s section, and there are usually some hidden gems. From stripes and checks to florals and paisley prints, there’s always a great selection to choose from.
Can T-Shirts Work?
Baggy t-shirts are great for a casual outfit, but these can be dressed up too! T-shirts come in all shapes and sizes, but we all know the big, baggy ones are the most comfortable. You can even find large t-shirt dresses, which are pretty much an oversized tee outfit that doesn’t need any styling – perfect for summer.
Oversized tees with cycling shorts are a great trend to follow if you want another chilled summer outfit. These were popularized by old Princess Diana photos, and they are perfect for running errands in and still looking chic. You can find cycling shorts in pretty much every online store at the moment, and they come in different colors and textures too. For an extra chic look, try wearing a baggy tee with a vintage logo and some rib-knit cycling shorts.
If you want something a little more dressed up, you can even tuck these t-shirts into jeans or denim shorts for a not-so-form-fitting option. Who needs tight tops anyway? Pairing an oversized band tee with some distressed mom jeans is a great alternative look to rock this summer. Bonus points if it’s paired with a detailed belt and boots.
Another great way to wear an oversized tee is to find one that reaches your mid-thigh to the knee area and cinch it in with a belt. If you’re not a fan of belts, waist corsets have become a popular trend recently, and these can also be paired with baggy tees.
Play With Layers
Oversized garments are an excellent opportunity to experiment with layers. From throwing a satin slip dress over a baggy tee to wearing an oversized shirt with a skirt under it, there are endless outfits to create.
Owning clothes that layer well is important. They create numerous outfit combinations. It’ll feel like you own more clothes than you do – perfect for anyone wanting a capsule wardrobe! Minimalism has been a much talked about the topic recently, with many reselling the majority of their wardrobes. Owning fewer clothes is great, but always give yourself options!
We recommend owning a couple of oversized tees and some shirts too so you can mix up your current outfit rotation and incorporate some relaxed styles in for the summer season.
