I wear it year-round, which means I need to stock up.
I’m a simple girl. It doesn’t take a lot to make me truly happy; in fact, whenever I’m feeling down, there’s not much a raspberry-chocolate gelato (lol) or a long walk through Central Park can’t fix. This sort of simple life has also translated to my wardrobe. You won’t find overly flashy pieces hanging in my closet because, well, there simply aren’t many occasions I can wear said things to. Instead, I like to keep my clothing collection streamlined, fuss-free, and low-key, with basics like flattering tees, sleek bodysuits, and ribbed tank tops in plenty.
With the spring-cleaning bug hitting me hard, I’ve recently done a wardrobe refresh, meaning out with the old, and in with the new. I made space! I found some pieces I forgot about! And I realized that I need more of certain basics because I quite literally wear them to death. One staple I’m stocking up on — not only because I’m basically wearing it 24/7, but also it’s currently majorly marked down during Amazon’s Big Spring Sale — is this Gap T-shirt that’s equal parts comfy, flattering, and subtly sexy.
As I’ve gotten older, I’ve realized that simple tees really are superior. And while some people might be quick to write them off because they’re too “simple,” said simplicity lends itself to infinite outfit options. In fact, I’ve worn this now-$11 ribbed Gap top with jeans and sneakers, pleated skirts and heels, and trousers, and every time, it worked without much fuss. That’s why I’m adding a few more to my collection while it’s on sale.

What I especially love about it is that it has all the makings of a classic tee — the butter-soft fabric, the fit, the price point — with a few twists that make it feel slightly more elevated. I’m talking about the button-detailing you can wear closed or open depending on the look you’re going for and the thicker, ribbed material that makes it feel more refined. I always get compliments when I wear it from people telling me it looks so expensive; little do they know it’s under $20 from a mall brand.
Amazon shoppers agree with me on many sentiments. “This shirt in particular fits me really well and looks great!” wrote one reviewer who also received compliments on the shirt. Additional key points that I think are 100 percent worth stressing again: “It fits great. [It’s] very flattering and comfortable. Good material.” In my opinion, these are essential aspects that set a good tee apart from a great one, which is why I can confidently crown this a great on-sale Gap option.
TL;DR? I wear this top all the time, so I might as well have a few more in my arsenal. Plus, the price can’t be beat during Amazon’s Big Spring Sale, so now really is the perfect time to stock up.
