A t-shirt and jeans is the classic summer outfit. Sure it’s basic, but there’s a reason why it’s such a quintessential combo. Take it from heartthrob and fashion icon Zayn Malik—you really can’t go wrong with a good vintage t-shirt and your favorite pair of jeans. Zayn Malik’s Aaliyah t-shirt is the perfect summer staple and it spices up the classic pairing just enough to look effortlessly cool.
So, you’ve had a crush on Zayn since you were 13 and still haven’t completely recovered—join the club. Even though his One Direction days are long gone (still mourning the loss BTW), he’s been at the top of his fashion game this year. From his tweed blazer and blonde highlights at Paris Fashion Week to his more laid-back (but equally perfect) talk show outfits, we’re always going to be tuned into what he’s wearing. It might not take a lot to make him look good, but you won’t ever catch him wearing a bad ‘fit.
How do you make jeans and a t-shirt look this good? Be Zayn Malik of course. But if that’s not an option, get an airbrushed Aaliyah t-shirt. Zayn’s outfit might be casual, but it still looks like he put effort into what he’s wearing. And thankfully for us, an outfit this simple means it’s easy to recreate. For those days when you don’t want to spend hours deciding what to wear, but still want to look good—keep it simple like Zayn. It’s not the most daring piece of clothing, but graphic t-shirts are still cool. And they probably always will be.
Zayn’s exact t-shirt is under $40 which makes it the perfect addition to your affordable summer wardrobe. Plus, if you love ’90s it-girl Aaliyah as much as Zayn (and the rest of the world) does, it’s a must buy. Zayn paired the shirt with flower embroidered cargo pants to tie the ’90s vibe together. The man loves his t-shirt and jeans—and after we’ve witnessed him pull it off so many times, it’s time to put our own twist on the look this summer.
