Loving Ivy Sport Vintage Collegiate Tees
Not reeeeeeally vintage so they don't have that pit stain issue
There’s nothing we love more at Naag than taking something super-preppy or posh and messing it all up. That said, we’re kind of obsessed with representing the Ivy League universities right now — there is major blue blood running through our veins this summer.
OK, we must admit that our blood is probably more of a hot pink than anything else. But the allure of the Ivory Tower is proving to be too strong, and we just discovered a gold mine at Ivysport.com.
While the ultimate scenario is to stumble upon perfectly worn-in and ratty finds that some former student dumped a thrift store, this website offers a “vintage” line of perfectly faded and super-soft shirts from all major fancy colleges.
Take your pick from tees boasting the Harvard Crimson, Yale Bulldogs or Princeton Tigers, and then style it with something unexpected like leather pants or a sequined skirt. Think of these as the wardrobe equivalent to a faded gray sweatshirt, which looks great with just about anything. Finish off with a pair of black ankle boots and some tough jewelry.
And don’t worry, if an alum from any of these schools tries to chat you up, we’ve got you covered: Say you stole the shirt from your ex-boyfriend/gay best friend. If they ask which class, give them his age to buy time while they try and calculate it, like, “Oh, he’s 26 now so….” On the off-chance that they question even further, make up a ridiculously dashing name for him. We like Rogét Thesaur.
