Every holiday, we brace for Dad’s turkey a la king, Liv’s fabulous Christmas tree decor, gingerbread cookies from Alyssa and of course, photos in our annual Eden holiday graphic tees! We’ll admit, we don’t normally rock graphic tees year round, but holidays call for these playful blanks to come out and shine.
Whether you’re headed to brunch, running errands, or strolling around Honolulu Hale, here are five that’s-so-Eden ways to style your holiday tee (without looking frumpy or looking like you rolled out in pajamas!).
Rock a holiday holiday tee, make it CUTE!
Jeans + White Blazer
Take your everyday tee up a notch! Tuck it into your favorite jeans, add a statement belt, slip on heels, and layer with a sharp white 3/4 sleeve blazer.
“The blazer instantly makes everything “meeting ready” while the tee keeps this look laid back. You can always swap the heels out for white kicks – just make sure your shoes match the white hue of your blazer to keep everything polished.”
H&M has great 3/4 blazers when they’re in season, but this one looks identical to the one I have.
White Pants + Kicks
Summer forever? Yes please. Pair your tee with crisp white pants and classic sneakers for an outfit that screams fresh, fun, and carefree. Add a pop of color bag (hellooo Eden tote!) and you’ve got that effortless “I woke up like this” energy. Looking for the best kicks? Here’s Karen’s faves.
“White goes with everything….. if you don’t have a good pair of white pants, I suggest you get one stat! You’ll be shocked how easy white kicks every look up – even a graphic tee.”
Tulle Skirt + Sneakers
Because who doesn’t love a little drama? Balance the boldness of a poufy tulle skirt with the playfulness of a knotted or tucked graphic tee. Toss on sneakers to keep it comfy + grounded. This look is part ballerina, part street-style star.
“But really, this is my favorite look for graphic tees! And I always hunt for tulle anything in Japan. Skirts, tanks, dresses… tulle flows so nicely and helps create shape to any outfit.”

Shorts + Flannel + Kicks
We’re talking cozy-cute perfection. Throw your tee on with denim shorts, wrap a flannel around your waist (or wear it open), add tall socks and sneakers, and you’ve got yourself a laid-back look that feels like Saturday mornings. Bonus: it’s perfect for matcha runs and farmers market crawls. Note: This such an effortless look for teens rocking holiday tees to school
This flannel is black-red would be perfect over a graphic tee and white distressed shorts.
Tea-Length Skirt + Sandals
Knotted tees are everything with a midi or tea-length skirt. It cinches your waist, balances proportions, and pairs perfectly with strappy sandals. This combo is breezy, chic, and ready for both daytime hangs or a twinkly date night.
“For me, I’d always opt to tuck the knot inside of my top to give my waist a cleaner look. Try it! Instead of leaving the knot out, slip it right under or you can also croptuck it! Don’t know croptuck? Discover the magic here.”
Mix, match, repeat, and let your graphic tee do all the talking.
Wear a graphic tee, but make it cute.
Come on, you know that’s so Eden.
