Everybody loves a plain white Tee Shirt. There is, quite simply, no better pairing then a T-Shirt and jeans in my opinion. Well, today I am having some fun with the classic white Tee.
I took a plain white tee shirt, and styled it 10 different ways. Some involve sewing, some are a simple twist, tie, and go. But all are simple, and something you can do!
‘Ten Shirt Challenge’
Ten ways to transform a plain white tee into modern, stylish every day wear.
Look No. 1
T-Shirt turned dress.
—
Look No. 2
T-Shirt turned mini.
—
Look No. 3
Add button tabs to sleeves.
—
Look No. 4
Wrap it around – instant skirt.
This look was achieved by simply tying on the T Shirt, using the same ‘Long Sleeve’ method found here.
—
Look No. 5
Metallic watercolor fabric paint.
Hand Painting on Fabric gives your tee shirt an instant boost! Try adding a bit of water to your fabric paint for a water-color effect.
—
Look No. 6
Off the shoulder hi-low dolman.
—
Look N0. 7
Raglan tee with fun animal print fabric pairing.
—
Look No. 8
Wrap around – instant dress.
The Tee Shirt Dress involves no sewing at all, simply slip on, tie sleeves, and go. A great tutorial can be found here.
—
Look No. 9
Loose fitting tank, with ribbon belt.
Slip tank on, and wrap your ribbon around your waist and tie. (I used denim bias tape).
—
Look No. 10
Knot tie sides with RIT dye.
Sew up the sides as high or low as you want for more or less coverage. Once you are done sewing back together, simply dip dye using your favorite RIT color, and you have a fabulous new sleeveless tee for Summer!

Wow! Great ideas! My favorite is the fabric paint one. Love that watercolor effect. You are so creative!

Great looks — all of them! I am already thinking of copying your contrast raglan sleeve version.
I think that is my favorite one Samina 🙂
JESSICA!!! You look beautiful in every single one of your extra brilliant creations! And the best part is they look totally do-able! You did the hard part in thinking them up and experimenting. So clever of you! Can’t wait for what’s next!
Thanks so much Aunt Deb! You are awesome, I love you!!!
Love this! Pinning now!
LOVE THIS!!!! It makes me want to try it!
ooh the tab sleeve version is my fave! love these ideas 🙂
We have been friends for nleary 9 years now, oh how the time goes by and in those years we’ve both grown in so many ways, and faced so many challenges to get us to the places we are today. I just want to tell you how proud I am of you and how much I truly love you and value our friendship every single day I’ll see you in 13 days
Um. Genius. I love them all! But I think the tab sleeve is my favorite. Can you believe I don’t have a single white t-shirt?! I will be picking one (or 10 lol) up now!! 🙂
I love this Jess– way to go! Where did you get your shirts?
Finally had a quiet minute to study all of these. Love them – I think the animal print raglan sleeve is my favorite – although the expression on your face in the RIT dye one is fabulous, also. You are on fire, girl!
Love them! My favorite is the dress one (number one)! I think I’m going to collect tees
