Quick, go over and take a good, hard look at your T-shirt drawer. What are you finding in there? Perhaps a few band T-shirts, high school or college athletic tees, gaudy graphic tees – if you’re finding stylish T-shirts in that drawer though, consider yourself dismissed. For the rest of us, there’s plenty to be said for treating your T-shirt like you’d treat any other style essential.
