The buttery soft staple is my new summer uniform.
Once temperatures start hitting above 90 degrees, I can’t be bothered putting together an elaborate outfit. Sensorially, I just can’t handle wearing clothes that involve too many components or aren’t lightweight and breathable. That said, I become a bit of a minimalist when getting dressed during warmer weather. My current uniform is either a tank top and linen pants, a breezy maxi dress, or denim shorts, and my most recent pickup, Abardsion’s Fitted Short-Sleeve T-Shirt. It’s unbelievably soft, super flattering, and currently on sale for $15 on Amazon.
The T-shirt is available in short-sleeve and long-sleeve options and has 23 colors, including pink, white, gray, blue, and black. It features a crew neckline with decent stretch so you can easily pop it over your head, and the fit sits close to the body. Plus, it comes in sizes S through 4XL.

As a former fashion designer who designed T-shirts for a living, I’m extremely picky about what I look for in a basic everyday tee. You may think, how can one be picky about a T-shirt? Well, there are three components I look for that can make or break a basic tee for me: stretch, fit, and material quality. Abardsion’s fitted tee checks all those boxes and then some.
The first thing I look for is that it has a lot of stretch, and this one can be stretched nearly twice its size and snap right back into shape. Also, it must be comfortable if it fits like a second skin. This style is buttery soft, not too tight, and very breathable. I've even fallen asleep with it on and I didn’t wake up overheated.
But the main selling point for me was that it’s full-length. We’ve existed in the crop top era for over a decade, and I’m finally at the age where I want my shirts to cover my midriff. I like that I can style it pulled down or scrunched for a more cropped look. Another bonus is that it’s super lightweight but substantial enough that it’s not sheer in lighter shades. I plan on stocking up on the fitted T-shirt for summer while it’s on sale for $15.
