My souvenir shirts rarely last past a few washes before I edit them out because I usually do not like the material. On the flip side, the Life is Good tees, wash and wear well, last for years, and are very comfortable, I really like both their Crusher and Crusher-LITE materials.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Dee</b> - My oldest Life is Good tee is 5 years old, and I find it's held up well. My newest tees feel the same to me. Hopefully they also last 5 years or more!&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Cookie </b>- Thanks for the suggestion, I'll have to check out Liberty Graphics. I have a weakness for graphic tees. :)</p> <p><b>Jaime</b> - As a moody dresser colors often do reflect my mood of the day. But with graphic tees, the graphic itself usually reflects my mood. Right now I'm in summer mode and I'm reaching for my beach and summer themed tees most often, with the occasional non summer theme tee thrown in for fun and to keep things interesting. :)</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colorful-shorts-and-graphic-tees-long#post-2388774 Tue, 24 Jun 2025 23:28:37 +0000 Jaime 2388774@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You manage to go from brights to neutrals, cool to warm so nicely! Do you think your pick your colors for the day based on your mood? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colorful-shorts-and-graphic-tees-long#post-2388743 Tue, 24 Jun 2025 18:41:19 +0000 Cookie 2388743@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The “Science” shirt is my fave!</p> <p>I have a number of T-shirts from Liberty Graphics because their outlet store is in a tiny town in Maine near where we often go in the summer. Highly recommended. <a href="https://naturetshirts.com/collections" rel="nofollow">https://naturetshirts.com/collections</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colorful-shorts-and-graphic-tees-long#post-2388731 Tue, 24 Jun 2025 17:03:20 +0000 Dee 2388731@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another playful mix of colourful shorts and tees. Especially like the proportions and bold colour combo of 6 &amp; 7.<br /> I have one Life is Good tee that I bought years ago and it's still holding it's colour and shape well. Not sure if they're making them as good these days. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colorful-shorts-and-graphic-tees-long#post-2388713 Tue, 24 Jun 2025 12:20:03 +0000 RobinF 2388713@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Such a great collection of graphic tees! I have been low key collecting them for a few years and am realizing that it's not just the design and color that works for me but the feel of the tee has to be soft and comfortable or I don't reach for it. Makes sense but I didn't think about that when purchasing some of them!</p> <p>My favorites are #3 and #13. Love the fuchsia shirt with the tan shorts. I have a shirt that color that I don't wear often, now I want to combine it with tan. And I love the tonal look of #13 - calming.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colorful-shorts-and-graphic-tees-long#post-2388689 Tue, 24 Jun 2025 00:24:41 +0000 Lisa 2388689@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Suz</b> - Indeed graphic tees are the biggest capsule in my wardrobe. I've found Life is Good Tees wash and wear very well so I've been able to "collect" them over the years. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colorful-shorts-and-graphic-tees-long#post-2388684 Mon, 23 Jun 2025 21:18:40 +0000 Suz 2388684@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have the biggest graphic tee collection I have ever seen! It must be fun to look at all the colours in your closet. My faves here are 4, 8, and 13. I also like both iterations (bright pink and black tops) with the bright shorts. I appreciate your story of finding new ways to style the thing that had given you problems. It's great to find a new lease on life on something you may almost have given up on.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colorful-shorts-and-graphic-tees-long#post-2388679 Mon, 23 Jun 2025 20:06:46 +0000 Lisa 2388679@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Angie</b> - *happily collects crown* Graphic tees and shorts is a tried and true outfit formula for me in the summer. I have a real weakness for Life is Good graphic tees. :)</p> <p>I'm delighted to have homed in on the styling for the turquoise shorts because it's such a bright and fun color!</p> <p><b>Lise</b> - Thanks for the kind words and for looking!</p> <p><b>cat2</b> - Your remixing of navy with ivory, tan, and olive sounds lovely!</p> <p><b>JAileen</b> - *high five for llamas* That tee always puts a smile on someone's face when they see it. :)</p> <p><b>Firecracker (Sharan)</b> - I am enjoying the mix of colors this summer season. It's been a nice continuation of when I started trying out new to me color combinations with my Zella pieces last fall. I do adore the Rails hoodie but even with the crochet lantern sleeves, it's just too hot for our summers. Lesson learned!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colorful-shorts-and-graphic-tees-long#post-2388665 Mon, 23 Jun 2025 17:26:54 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2388665@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great set of outfits, Lisa. A feast of WIWs! I really like those Lyssé shorts on you, and am glad you are discovering fun ways to wear them. I do like them with the black complement in 16, and also with the fuschia and green tops in 14 and 6. With the blush shorts, I am really liking the combos in 12 and 13. That hoodie is so fun and the color is super fab with your skin. I can see how it's too warm for your summer. You just need to come out to the PNW for a summer getaway and bring it along! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colorful-shorts-and-graphic-tees-long#post-2388663 Mon, 23 Jun 2025 17:09:23 +0000 JAileen 2388663@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your tees are so great! &nbsp;I especially like the llama one. I had a friend with llamas. &nbsp;She spun their fleece into yarn, and then knitted the yarn into warm things. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colorful-shorts-and-graphic-tees-long#post-2388657 Mon, 23 Jun 2025 15:04:07 +0000 cat2 2388657@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thumbs up for the outfit with the jade sweater. That color combo is great. I have almost worn out my navy summer things, and am remixing everything with newer ivory, tan, and olive green pieces. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colorful-shorts-and-graphic-tees-long#post-2388648 Mon, 23 Jun 2025 13:39:17 +0000 Star (Lise) 2388648@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Summer fabness! I agree with ANGIE that they are equally fab and just right for different moods. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colorful-shorts-and-graphic-tees-long#post-2388645 Mon, 23 Jun 2025 13:34:14 +0000 Angie 2388645@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hereby crown you Queen Graphic Tees and Shorts! And rocking these colour combinations, <b>Lisa.</b>&nbsp;There was never a doubt!&nbsp;<b></b></p> <p>As always, there is a great assortment of levels of casual, colours, levels of contrast, neutrals, and styling techniques in your outfits - which suit the varying settings, activities of the day, and your moods. WELL DONE :)&nbsp;</p> <p>#6 and $14 are my KILLER faves. Soooo pulled together! Wearing equal saturation bright tops with the dressy turquoise shorts works exceptionally well.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colorful-shorts-and-graphic-tees-long#post-2388622 Mon, 23 Jun 2025 01:26:31 +0000 Lisa 2388622@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello.</p> <p>I've been interested in trying out different color combinations this season using one of my favorite outfit formulas for summer, shorts and graphic tees. :)</p> <p>Here's a collection of shorts and (mostly) graphic tees with various non neutrals that I've worn recently.</p> <p><b>#1 and #2 - Running Errands</b><br />A "beach blue" flip flop flower print Life is Good graphic tee paired with Amazon Mid Rise Coral shorts and White Sam Edelman slides. This blue Tumi crossbody bag is worn often at this time of year. I like the smaller size and lightweight material for summer. I got the idea to pair the coral shorts with the beach blue tee from the flip flop pattern. Blue Maui Jim sunglasses finish off the outfit.</p> <p><b>#3 - Coffee Date</b><br />Worn to meet a friend for coffee. The mint turtle print Life is Good tank is a really light color and the fuchsia pink Rails shirt really pops against the minty color. Taupe WHBM Pret-A-Pedi shorts and taupe sandals finished off the look. With my beloved pink Maui Jim sunglasses of course. :)</p> <p><b>#4 and #5 - Lunch Run</b><br />Worn to pick up lunch one day in a softer color palette of blush pink Paige Dani High Waist denim shorts and yet another Life is Good graphic tee this one in Putty White. A seafoam green Tory Burch bag adds a little color to the softer palette. The metallic pink Cushionaire sandals complete this casual look.</p> <p><b>#6 and #7 - Outdoor Dinner</b><br />I opted for a kelly green WHBM elbow sleeve sweater and turquoise Lysee Amanda Stretch Twill shorts for an outdoor dinner with DH. A gold Boden belt and necklace paired with gold slip on Ecco Soft 7 sneakers and a mustard yellow Coach bag finish off the outfit. With all this color I opted for simple black Rayban aviator sunglasses.</p> <p><b>#8 - Hanging At Home</b><br />A simple outfit of a "mango orange" crab print Life is Good Tee graphic tee paired with "oat" WHBM Pret-A-Pedi shorts and the metallic pink Cushionaire sandals again. Brown Maui Jim aviator sunglasses finished off this outfit.</p> <p><b>#9 and #10 - Picking Strawberries</b><br />Sneakers are a must for walking around strawberry fields because of all of the sand and loose berries on the ground. I really liked how well the yellow Life is Good graphic tee pairs with the&nbsp;Amazon Mid Rise Coral shorts for this outfit. I did add a baseball hat when walking around the farm.</p> <p><b>#11 - WFH Without Video</b><br />A WFH day with no video calls so I kept it simple with some softer colors. This time I paired the&nbsp;blush pink Paige Dani High Waist denim shorts with a "smoky blue" Life is Good graphic tee. My graphic tees reflect my interests and I am a science nerd. My master's degree is molecular biology but physics is fun too. :)</p> <p><b>#12 and #13 - Tonal With Blush</b><br />Another causal day at home with the&nbsp;blush pink Paige Dani High Waist denim shorts again this time paired with a pullover Rails hoodie with lantern crochet sleeves. It was only worn for about an hour before it was too hot to keep on. I went tone on tone today with yes another Life is Good graphic tee. :)</p> <p><b>#14 and #15 - WFH With Video</b><br />A WFH day with video calls. Last year I struggled to style these turquoise&nbsp;Lysee Amanda Stretch Twill shorts. The material doesn't pair well with graphic tees (these shorts are on the dressy side) and I couldn't figure out what colors to pair with them so I&nbsp;only wore them with black (see <b>outfit #16</b>). I've finally figured out that I need bright tops to match the bright saturation of the shorts. This combination of a fuchsia pink button down paired with the turquoise is my favorite I've tried to far.</p> <p>Are you experimenting with colors this summer?</p> <p>Thanks for looking! </p>
