For whatever reason, I associate summertime with nostalgia, in all of its many manifestations and forms, and this just so happens to include my sartorial preferences as well. Retro graphic tees are one warm-weather staple that I find to be not only charming, but they’re also surprisingly versatile when it comes to their vast styling options. Naturally, I love to pair my vintage tees with jeans and cut-offs, but I also even like to throw them under a structured blazer for a professional-but-cool look at the office — it’s kind of become my signature. Although I will admit that copied this unexpected styling hack from my colleague — sorry, Val.
Anyway, because I like to consider myself an avid thrifter (or addict, whichever you prefer), my collection of authentic vintage tees, spanning from styles sporting heritage logo graphics to perfectly beat-up band tees, and my beloved 1960’s Coca-Cola tee that I admittedly paid up for at a high-end flea market is rather expansive so, I rarely find myself hunting for reproductions. However, I recently went on a searching spree and by accident, noticed a surprising amount of noteworthy retro-styled tees on some of my favorite e-tailers that had me reconsidering my loyalty to true vintage. While I may have come across as too snobbish to drop $25+ on a vintage-inspired tees earlier on, these offerings were so good that I actually found myself shamelessly reaching for my credit card while adding to cart. If you’re into throwback fashion, these adorable tees will surely hit the spot when it comes to sprucing up your summer wardrobe line up. Trust me.
