White T-shirts: My pet peeve

For the longest time, I've been wanting to do a post about how people sometimes do not wear white t-shirts properly. Some girls wear t-shirts that are so see-through, that you can see their black bra. Others like to show people they don't wash their shirts when you see, dry, yellow sweat stains. And some just wear them plain dirty.

Now, I may seem OCD about my white t-shirts, but I thought a little advice would help. I'm not trying to be mean, just honest and helpful.

Don't: Wear any dark, neon or even a white bra under your white t-shirt.
Girls seem to make this mistake all of the time and I don't know why. Maybe they're in bad lighting or something. No matter how thick your shirt is, most white t-shirts are see-through. Wearing a dark colored bra shows you probably don't care about how you look. Sometimes we don't care, but we should in this situation. A bra of some sort of neon color or crazy pattern makes it seem like you want people to see your bra. In my opinion, you should never want people to see your bra. When girls wear a white bra, they probably think it doesn't show through but it does. The solution here is to wear a flesh-toned bra. Flesh tones usually do not show through, but sometimes do. If this type of bra does show through your shirt, you can simply wear a bandeau over your bra (since bandeaus are not made to BE bras). The bandeau should be of a flesh tone or even white, since it's cotton under cotton. Your last resort should be a tank top another color underneath the t-shirt.

Don't leave your white shirts with sweat stains.
Good hygiene is important for everyday living but I've noticed that some people do not bother to wash their white t-shirts. When you sweat, sometimes you have sweat stains. On white fabric, sweat discolors the fabric due to the small amount of urine in your sweat. This turns your white shirt to a nasty yellow. My advice is to be hygienic and WASH YOUR CLOTHES! Or at least use some clinical strength deodorant.

Don't: Wear your white t-shirts with any other sort of stain.
As far as I'm concerned, stained clothing has never been in style unless a designer can make something look like it's supposed to be stained or damaged. However, wearing your white t-shirt that's got a spot or two is gross. I always wash my white t-shirts, stained or not, just in case there is something on it that I don't see. If you do see a stain, make sure you treat it. A good tip: Carry Tide-to-go!

I hope this helps you all!
