How 8 Fashion Girls Wear Band Tees From London to L.A.
I'll admit it: I'm a bit obsessive about my band tees. Whenever I buy a T-shirt at a concert venue, I always get two so that I can wear one freely and keep the other one in pristine condition for posterity. In my defense, my favorite artists are all septugenarians—hello, Paul McCartney and Neil Young—so who knows how many more shows they'll do!
I don't know about you, but I can't wait for the sweet, sweet return of concert season. In the meantime, I'm living vicariously through all of my favorite band tees. For some outfit styling ideas, I dug through the Instagrams of everyone from L.A. girl Jen Azoulay to London-based influencer Celeste Vignois, and I definitely struck gold. Scroll down for some ideas on how to wear band tees and shop my favorite ones right now.

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 12 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of senior news editor (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
