“Say it with your chest” literally with Graphic Tee’s. Are you a graphic tee collector? Guilty! This Trend is more and more common with shirts from your favorite 80’s rap group like RUN DMC or just your fav saying or slogan!

Graphic Tee’s are becoming more of a must-have in every fashionista’s fashionist(0)(my male version of a fashionista lol) closet. They’re comfy,versatile and can be worn for any occasion. I remember being in a freshman in college and purchasing an AC/DC t-shirt and didn’t even know who the group was and of course never heard any of their songs, just thought it was a dope shirt, with these dope men with shaggy hair and wearing denim on denim, ever since I’ve been addicted.

Now that they are more trendy with faces from Brooklyn’s own Notorious BIG, Michael Jackson to Muhammed Ali or even your favorite quotes! You can even get them customized to pay a tribute to someone you love that you lost!

Justabrooklyngyrl will let you in on her top five graphic tees and where to purchase them.

Dress them up with a bright or nude pump,some thigh high boots joined with some cut off distressed denim jeans or shorts than throw on a blazer or biker jacket to complete the look!

Or Dress them down with some kicks!
