Let me start by saying - I LIVE in oversized tees during summer. When I saw the Trendy Queen shirts, I knew I had to try them. After wearing them through workouts, beach days, and even casual office wear (with a blazer!), here's my honest take.
The Good: The fabric blend is MAGIC - lightweight yet substantial enough to not be see-through. That 5% spandex gives just the right amount of stretch. As a curvy girl (I wear XL), the loose fit is actually flattering without drowning me in fabric. The sleeves hit at that perfect spot to cover upper arms without feeling restrictive.
Pro Tip: Size down if you want a fitted look - these run true to their oversized promise. I made the mistake of sizing up initially and looked like I was wearing my boyfriend's shirt (not the cute aesthetic I wanted).
Unexpected Win: These don't wrinkle! As someone who hates ironing, throwing one on straight from the dryer looking crisp is a game-changer. They've held up through multiple washes with zero pilling so far.
The Not-So-Good: While breathable, they're slightly thicker than expected for scorching summer days. The black one especially absorbs heat more than lighter colors. Also, the length is inconsistent between colors - my white one sits several inches longer than the navy.
Best Uses: These shine for:
- Gym sessions (moisture-wicking enough for light workouts)
- Beach coverups
- Casual Fridays with jeans
- Layering under jackets in spring/fall
Final Verdict: At this price point, these are absolute wardrobe workhorses. Not perfect, but for comfortable, versatile basics that hold up well? Definitely worth adding a few colors to your rotation.
