That long shirt might seem hard to style, but it's actually much easier than you might think. You just have to know how to make your shirt look its best. Take your long top and whip it into tons of creative and super fashionable looks that'll have you looking absolutely chic.

Wear It With Denim

A long tee looks fab with jeans. If your top is flowy, try it with fitted jeans so the looseness of your top doesn't overwhelm your look. If it's a little chilly, throw a jean jacket over your top. In this case a jean jacket with jeans is totally cute. The longer top peeking out from your jacket will break up your double denim look, making it look more modern. A leather jacket would look fab here too.

Tuck It Into a Skirt

Make your shirt a little fancier and wear it with a skirt. Just make sure that your top isn't longer than your skirt. You definitely wouldn't want the hem of your shirt poking out. Wear a more casual skirt here or go more dressy. Either way will look fab.

Try a Cropped Vest

Wear a cool cropped vest over your long shirt. The contrast of the shorter vest with the longer shirt makes for a cool juxtaposition. Pair your vest with a long tee or work in a longer button-up blouse for a fashionable take on the menswear trend. Slip on a pair of jeans or slacks to finish off the look. If you want to throw in a more feminine bottom, a fitted skirt works perfectly.

Wear It As a Dress

Try wearing your long shirt as a dress. Just make sure that your top is long enough that it doesn't look vulgar. That means that your bum will need to be covered and your shirt should probably extend about a foot past your waist. Give your shirt a little more shape by belting it -- and just like that you've got a fab dress.
