The Battle of The Luxury T-Shirt; Gucci vs…

In the past few years, we’ve seen a rise of luxury houses churn out cult designer t shirts. We’ve seen it with Dior (Think, “We Should All Be Feminists” the first runway look of Maria Grazia Chiuri to come down the runway), Chanel (from their Cuba collection) and of course, the ever famous Gucci t shirt. Not only does Gucci have one cult t shirt, they have two! This season they came out with another one that everyone is racing to get their hands on. That being said, I am not racing for that second one (yes, I admit I have the first one which I styled ages ago in this post here.. how things have changed!) because I think that there is another designer t shirt that is a much better investment than the Gucci t shirt (gasp! the shock and horror!); The Saint Laurent Logo T Shirt.

When investing in a designer t shirt you need to consider more than whether the piece is trendy at the moment. The ones that are worth the investment, are the ones that stand the test of time for you personally. The Saint Laurent Logo T-Shirt, which has as much of a cult following as the Gucci one, is a piece that you will be able to style today, tomorrow and for years after that. While it dabbles in logomania with the original YSL logo from their first store in Paris in the centre, the logo’s size makes this t-shirt so much more wearable, subtle and chic. I also love the acid wash effect, an immediate cool girl factor.

This is a super cool luxury investment that is subtle enough for you to style and keep in your wardrobe for more than just a season or trend cycle. I think that is one of the most important factors when it comes to purchasing luxury goods.

I styled my new favourite t shirt with a Topshop white denim skirt. I always have a certain amount of key basics that I stock up on from the high street. I think Topshop has an amazing denim selection and I always have at least two denim skirts from them in my wardrobe. I love the mix of light colours for summer; so fresh! The look was complete with some statement Dior slides and these adorable & Other Stories sunglasses. Talk about a high low mix!

It’s Finally Time for Denim Shorts!

I’ve clearly got a thing for stars and denim, and here is another embellished denim piece that I couldn’t wait to show you! These star shorts are one of my favourite pairs for summer! I chose to add some colour to this look with another statement piece. Although I usually don’t pair a lot of statement pieces together, I found that they all matched so well! This jacket is another amazing summer item because it’s so light weight and I love the little crochet details! Plus, yellow is having a major moment next to millennial pink! My third and final statement piece for this look came with my brand new Radley bag. The studs on the bag add such a chic and edgy feel to my outfit. It’s also a great way for me to dress up my favourite jeans and tee combo, and that’s exactly what I’ve been doing with this bag so far! It’s also the perfect size, so it fits everything I need and looks so stylish at the same time! Cute right? The beauty with all these items is that they all look amazing separately, yet they all look great together too. I would wear these shorts on repeat with a linen shirt, or even with stripes! The jacket would be fabulous for the city, or for your next festival break and this Radley bag literally matches with anything!
