    Hi,

    My boyfriend insists on wearing a t-shirt over a long sleeve shirt!!

    Personally I dont like it!!

    What do others think of this style on guys, It looks good when girls do it tho!!

    Looks stoopid. For both sexes.

    Boys - NO
    Girls - Sometimes.

    No. Just no.

    A long sleeved top under a short sleeved one can look ok on girls sometimes but any shirt worn inside a t shirt sounds very wrong.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,463 ✭✭✭KTRIC


    I occasionally wear a long sleeve t-shirt under a short sleeve casual shirt. Both are black and I think it looks good. Is the OP's boyfriend a bit confused about what goes over what ?

    I wouldn't normally make such a sweeping statement, but your boyfriend is a moron. It's not a "look". It's like wearing your kaks over your trousers.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,083 ✭✭✭✭Stark


    Long sleeve over short sleeve = ok
    Short sleeve over long sleeve = no


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 213 ✭✭mildews


    no, no, non, no, no, no, non, for the love of jebus NO !!!!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 216 ✭✭rigormortis


    you can but t shirts now with a fake seam to make it look like you have two t shirts on. :confused: But all the cool people do it.

    It's fine. Nothing at all wrong with it.

    Its seems a bit american, surfer dude to me. Put on a ropey shirt a pair of jeans hit the boozer and get sozzled. Perfect night out. NO posing.

    Are we talking about a shirt, as in shirt and tie type shirt ? Or a t-shirt going over a long sleeved top lets say a band t-shirt ?

    I sometimes wear t-shirt if it has a cool design on it over a band t-shirt with designs on the arms.

    Yeah a shirt, like with a collar shirt!!!

    a shirt under a tshirt looks so awful, it doesn't seem comfortable either


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 454 ✭✭DonFred


    A nice t-shirt over a short sleeve shirt is ok, as long as colours match but its a bit dated.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,463 ✭✭✭KTRIC


    has anyone tried this just out of curiosity ??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,159 ✭✭✭✭phasers


    I tried it on in my house but ripped it back off immediately

    it's awful


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,386 ✭✭✭jprender


    you need to start dressing your bf

    What kind of T-shirt and blouse did you use?

    I think it looks good on girls!! but the t-shirt should be a v-neck.

    I used to do that when I was a 14 year old skater!

    just a regular blue shirt with a black V-neck tshirt

    it looks completely ridiculous

    sometime it work, but most of the time it doesnt, and its not comfy


    but when it works, its gooooood

    i do wear a long sleeve tshirt under a normal one, only wen the colours match nd only bcos its **cking freezing lately!

    a shirt over a buttoned shirt just looks horrible tho, cant be comfortable either!

    sum serious hinting needed to put a stop to this!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,541 ✭✭✭Davei141


    Dump him.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,944 ✭✭✭Jay P


    I used do that when I was 10 and owned a skateboard. So a big fat NO!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,023 ✭✭✭il gatto


    Maybe if you bought him a jumper to wear over his shirt? It's worth a try. Or as has been mentioned, dump him:D

    But then he might wear the t-shirt over the jumper.

    Oh God, or the shirt over the jumper. If this boy has confusion about what order clothes are worn in anything could happen. Throwing a jumper into the mix would only confuse the issue.

    OP how old is this person, if he is anything over fourteen he either needs some fundamental dressing lessons, like in playschool when they show you how to do laces and zips, or you need a new bf with better taste.

    Now now, let's not get personal by disparaging the boyfriend entirely just because he has bad taste.

    He could well have a massive willy in his favour.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23 smurphyk


    Give the guy a break!! It doesnt look that bad, It looks better on girls though, I wear it sometimes.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 230 ✭✭chris_oc

    long sleeved t under a short sleeved t= grand

    anything else...id have to see it on the person. some people can just pull of anything.

    if you're going to tell him what you think, give him options as an alternative so its not like you're going "i hate what you're wearing, CHANGE AND DONT DO IT AGAIN" kind of thing. be aware though that he's his own person and he can dress how he wishes.

    :)

    Sometimes it looks cute on girls, I have a top from Zara for work which looks like a blue shirt with a black t shirt over it, but in fact the shirt is fake, it's just the collar, bottom bit under the t shirt and the sleeves. It's cute.
    It might look nice on him too but I'm gonna go with no unless I saw pics.

    Agreed.

    I like this look on both sexes but with a proper shirt with collar - no!
