When tasked with dressing up utilitarian staples, I never back down from a challenge. Which is why when Lucky tasked me with elevating the "little white tee" from mainstay to showstopper, I obliged. Okay, okay....so my little white tee is more of a men's large white tee - because I borrowed this one from my husband's closet. I tend to stock up on little black tees only....because Jackie O.
The fast way to dress up a little white tee is to wedge it between some tailored suiting. A pair of black ankle pants and a vintage Chanel tweed 3/4 sleeve jacket were my staples of choice today.
My little white tee is a v-neck, so I elected to dress up the collar with a chunky crystal statement necklace by Jane Stone.
The classic CC ballet flat, or a pair of black patent leather heels elevates your white tee from a gym staple or under layer to a dressy casual look.
A classic gilt chained quilt bag gives the outfit an extra dose of sophistication and takes your white tee look into evening.
There you have it, a little white tee ensemble ala Coco Chanel!
