Constructing an Out of the Wardrobe Full of Caylus Tee Shirts

Dressing should not be stressful, and, if you already have Caylus T-shirts, you have the building blocks of a minimal and effortless casual wardrobe. These printed T-shirts are the perfect base layer—versatile, stylish, and comfortable. With a decent assortment of base layers, a mix of neutral casual bottoms (pants, shorts, skirts, etc.), and some forward-thinking outfit planning, you can maximize the wear of each piece with on-the-fly planning.

Instead of depending on one or two T-shirts, begin going for a collection of Caylus tees and building a small rotation. Three to five tees on rotation is the ideal casual wear amount. This approach gives you variety and differentiation for each outfit throughout the week without the risk of understyling or overcomplicating an outfit. If you pick out tees of varying base colors, (e.g., tone, black, or white), you maximize the versatility of the shirts in terms of the bottoms you pick.

Next, pick neutral basics to base your outfits around. Black, denim, beige, or gray neutral joggers, chinos, or jeans provide a neutral base that will help the T-shirt pop and provide a sleek, minimal look. This also helps remove the decision fatigue that comes with mornings: your bottom will always be neutral, meaning any Caylus T-shirt will match. Additionally, it’s smart to keep a few neutral hoodies and light jackets around for weather changes to ensure outfit consistency.

To further simplify the daily dressing process, establish straightforward outfit combinations: for example, a Caylus T-shirt with dark jeans and clean sneakers will create a casual look. Swap the jeans for joggers or add a zip up and a new outfit is formed, all without doing too much work. Having two or three of these combinations put together ahead of time will save time for each day to come.

Shoes also have a role to play and impact the outfit greatly. Stick to simple clean shoes that will match any outfit. This helps the outfit look put together, even if the t-shirt is casual.

Lastly, taking care of your core items is paramount. T-shirt washing, avoiding high temperatures, wearing your t-shirts in a rotation (so they don’t get worn out too fast), are all things that will preserve and keep your Caylus t-shirts comfortable for longer. For a casual closet to work, its essential pieces need to be in good shape.

With a rotation of t-shirts, a blending of tone colors (neutrals), and simple, repeatable, outfit patterns, it’s possible to create a casual, easy, comfortable and very much effort-less, wardrobe surrounding Caylus t-shirts for day to day living.
