How to Wear a Graphic Shirt

One of the most comfortable pieces in any wardrobe is an unfitted graphic top. We automatically think it's the best for a day out or a morning shopping trip. It's also one of the trickiest to put together without looking like you just jumped out of bed. Most "people" say we need to add similar colors that match so that we look put together but we all know there's never really a rule that applies to all.

I'm petite, with bright/brown hair and a fair complexion so pairing graphics with darker colors works well with me. I paired my Van Helsing Graphic long sleeve with a silk parka, black wool shorts, and grey/black platforms. I also added a gold necklace, chained bracelet and black raybans to complete the look. For a tanned complexion I would add brights mixed in with the darker hues. I'm not too much of a fan with mixing pastels with graphics but if it works, then rock it!
