30 Ways To Wear: Atmos&Here Slouchy Wine Purple V-Neck Tee

Continuing on with trying to make my #30wears posts a regular monthly feature this year. This month, I'm showing 30 different ways I've worn this beautiful deep purple wine v-neck tee from Atmos&Here.



30 Ways To Wear: Wine Purple V-Neck Tee

Cost Per Wear

I bought this tee back in October 2013, on sale for just $14.47, as I had an extra discount code. It's not the only slouchy soft rolled sleeve v-neck tee I have bought from Atmos&Here. I used to have a grey, black, and a striped one. This one, however, is the only one that I've manged to hit 30 wears with.

The super soft modal also has spandex in it which means that over the years, its stopped being so stretchy and more baggy as the spandex has worn away. Luckily this one seemed to hold its shape better than the others and I hit 31 wears with it, but it's been a lesson for me that if I want my clothes to last, pay attention to the fabric composition. I have a lot more cotton tees in my wardrobe now! Even if the extra stetch in this tee was helpful to see me through 2 pregnancies and very helpful in the breastfeeding days, I prefer just plain cotton tees now.

At 31 wears, it's now definitely too worn and stretched out to continue wearing, but still super soft, so will be a good pyjama top! It has had a low 47 cents cost per wear, and it's taught me a valuable lesson on paying attention to the fabric content of the things I buy, even if it's not something I'll be able to get a lot more wear from in future.


I don't have a lot of this deep wine-purple coloured burgundy in my wardrobe, so it's been interesting looking back to see how I have worn this. I like it a lot with black and other darker colours, but it has been worn with some brighter pairings too. Here are 30 different ways I've worn it over the 10 years it's been in my wardrobe.


Wine V-Neck Tee With Denim

I don't think there can be a more classic combo than a v-neck tee and denim! Sometimes I'll pair this tee with jeans, or shorts, even denim skirts. With the plain block colour, printed jeans work too. As do sequins, wearing my awesome Haus of Queenie custom kimono in the middle there.


Deep Purple Tee With Floral Prints

I like throwing a cover up or duster on top of a denim and tee outfit, as I have here in these 4 outfits. A floral cover up is a great way to add more colour and print to a plain tee like this wine one.



Wine V-Neck Tee With Stripes

As I've shown above I'm partial to florals, but stripes and even other prints like leopard work well against the plain dark background of this tee too!


Deep Purple Tee With Skirts

You saw the denim skirt with this wine tee above but it works with all other kinds of skirts, like a maxi skirt or with a pencil skirt for the office. I loved that it still fit over the bump with my maternity pencil skirt at the bottom there!


Wine Tee With Blue

Blue is my favourite colour and I'll wear it with everything. While this dark tee is a bit more burgundy than plain purple, living up to the 'wine' colour label well, I do still like wearing it with shades of blue just as I would with a purely purple tee. Different shades of blue in a scarf work well, and even a brighter turquoise like you can see in the middle of these outfits is good with the tee.


Deep Purple Tee With Grey

Of course if you're not sure what colour to wear with something, neutrals always work! This tee works well with grey skirts. I really like it with the grey skirt in the first and last outfits, so good I wore it twice! And it was nice to knot it over the grey tie-dye maxi dress in the middle there for something a little different.


Wine Tee With Other Shades Of Red

I have tried now and then to be a little more adventurous with this tee. Pairing it with much brighter shades of red, and other lighter shades of burgundy. I've really liked the combination, done on a small scale with a little crossbody bag, or on a larger scale with a printed cover up or that striped maxi skirt in the third outfit.


Deep Purple Tee With Brights

One unexpected combination I really ended up liking with this tee was adding a brighter piece against the deep wine purple shade. I really liked the wine with the rust orange skirts, and the little yellow bag and yellow print on the shorts in the second outfit there. It was a good way to lighten up this tee and I'm glad I gave the orange and burgundy colour scheme a try!

30 Ways To Wear: Lilac V-Neck Tee

For this month's 30 ways to wear post, it's another purple piece! And one I've been wearing on frequent repeat lately, this lilac v-neck tee. It's been a really versatile piece to have in my wardrobe but it wasn't worn all that frequently when I first bought it.


30 Ways to Wear: Lilac V-Neck Tee

I purchased this tee back in July 2013, so hitting 31 documented wears in April 2022 is not a sign of a piece that's been a frequently worn staple since I got it 9 years ago! I have been wearing it a lot more frequently these past few years, as I've switched from mostly wearing printed tops to more basic block colour tops and adding prints to my outfit with kimonos or scarves (depending on the weather) instead. So even though it took 9 years to reach more than 30 wears with this tee, it is one I have been wearing so frequently lately and I think it has definitely proved its worth in my wardrobe.


Cost Per Wear

I bought this tee at The Iconic, from a label called Spectrum that is no longer available. One of the other tees I hit 30 wears with is from the same brand, just in grey. Such good quality I'm sad the Iconic no longer sells them! It was on sale and I had a discount code, so it was just $11.95. At 31 wears, that's 38 cents a wear, definitely good value!

I have worn this tee a lot more than 31 times - I did consider removing it from my wardrobe for a bit as I was wearing it so little, so wore it as loungewear around the house quite a few times. Of course I quickly realised it definitely deserved a place in my permanent wardrobe, and worked it back into my "leaving the house" outfits and so back into being documented on the blog. It's holding up really well and I'm pleased with this purchase. Here are my 30 favourite ways I've worn it:

This has to be the easiest way to wear any brightly coloured tee - not just this lilac one! Wear it with neutrals. Try greys, blacks, even browns, and let the purple tee be the main statement piece in your outfit.



Lilac Tee and Kimono Outfit Ideas

I do love throwing a kimono over a tee and denim outfit, as you can see in these 5 outfits! With this lilac tee it's nice to be a little matchy-matchy and wear a kimono that has a bit of purple in it - that dark floral print kimono is a pairing I love with this tee.



Pink and Purple Outfits With A Lilac Tee

I really like pink and purple together! And as you can see in each of these 4 outfits, any shade of pink, from a pastel blush bag or neon pink scarf or pink bag or shorts, all work well with the lilac tee.



Pink, Blue and Purple Outfits Featuring a Lilac Tee

As well as loving pink and purple together like in the previous set of outfits, I like to extend that duo out into a try by wearing pink, purple, and blue together! It's a combination of colours I'll never get bored with. As you can see in these 4 outfits any shades of blue or pink can be combined with the lilac. There are so many possibilities with this trio of colours.



Lilac Tee In Office Outfits


3 ways to wear a lilac tee in the office with pencil skirts awayfromtheblue

With a business casual office environment, a colourful basic tee is a nice choice with a pencil skirt for a day without a lot of meetings. For something a little more dressed up, you can always throw a blazer on top like I have in that last outfit.

Another fail-safe outfit: jeans and a tee! For something a little different, you can see in 3 of these 4 outfits I've paired the lilac tee with printed jeans. It's a nice way to add more interest into a staple everyday combination.



Maxi Skirts and Dresses With Lilac Tee

Maxi skirts and dresses are something I often reach for, perfect for mum life! As you can see in these 6 outfits, the block colour lilac tee works equally well with a printed maxi skirt as it does with a basic neutral colour one, and even layers well over a maxi dress like in that fourth outfit.
