Tees Please

My wardrobe is at this point so out-of-control ginormous that it takes three closets, a chest of drawers, and a fairly large trunk to contain it all. Nevertheless, I consistently choose to neglect 95% of it, opting instead to wear some variation on the classic formula of jeans/t-shirt/sweater every single day of my life.

This paradox has become a major bone of contention in my life, being a neurotic obsessive-type by nature. "Why, Laura, why?" I ask myself while dressing. "Why don't you wear a dress today? What about a blazer? A blouse, perhaps?"

Then I get fed up with myself, lose interest in the whole situation, and end up throwing on some stupid t-shirt.

But you know what? I wear a t-shirt every day because I have a really fabulous t-shirt collection. I have no time for bells and whistles in my life. T-shirts are the ultimate item of clothing for lazy people- if you've got a cool t-shirt on, you're totally off the hook with every other aspect of your outfit- the t-shirt does all the work for you!

So, this post is an ode to my favorite t-shirts. I love each and every one of you more than all the rest of my clothes put together. You improve the quality of my life immeasurably, and you always make sure I look fly. From my Lil' Nino tee I bought for $3 off the street in Bushwick to my overpriced and gorgeously tasteless send-up of With the Beatles, the whole lot of you say everything I never could. And I am so, so grateful. Cheers!
