Lucky magazine is one of our favorite sources for great shopping tips. We're thrilled to share this fabulous story from our friends at Lucky!
When temperatures hover around the 90-degree mark - as they did throughout this past weekend in NYC - the mere idea of wearing anything with a sleeve tends to elicit shudders and premature sweats. Therein lies the catch-22; during the sunniest months of the year, anything strappy or strapless leaves you at risk for painful, dangerous sunburns. Sure, you could slather yourself in SPF 50 - and reapply every several hours thereafter - or you could choose a shoulder-covering (but still completely sleeve-free!) muscle tee.
Commonly featuring ventilation-friendly dropped armholes and cut from the softest cotton, the muscle tee's been the shirt of choice for gym-goers and skater kids across the globe for decades - and now, largely thanks to Phillip Lim's sold-out-almost-everywhere Spring 2013 "I Heart Nueva York" sleeveless tees, they couldn't be more on trend.
