Sal’s Tee Shirt Challenge #3. ETA today’s tee

Can you stand some more tee shirts? I found out I, who thought I had very few tees, have way more than I thought. Surprise to me, most are woven, not knit. Most are thrifted. Sal, thank you for this challenge. I needed to edit some of these tees out. I see I need to edit photos so will add them soon.
1/2: Silk animal print tee with EF black silk pants and EF espadrilles , Consignment small bag, horn and bead bracelets.
3/4: pink silk woven tee and navy EF pants. Consignment bag and Ugg suede loafers. Gifted summer scarf.
5/6: Lucky yeiiow floral tee, cut to make a tie at hem and EF grey pants, consignment bag.
ETA: Navy and white narrow stripe worn here with grey crepe EF pants, a cheap navy bandana and a navy print fabric bag from a local craftsman.
The photos are not loading. I will try from my phone later. Shoes are Munroe slip-on sneakers from Nordstrom Rack

Happy Birthday, Sweet Angie: ETA 2nd outfit

Happy Birthday! I felt sad today as it was the husband of my best friend of over 60 years funeral in another state and I could not go. This man was a charming gentle giant and had battled pancreatic cancer over 3 years. I will dress in a more festive way tomorrow or some time this weekend,
Today was hot and we had the little grandkids over for the day the first time in months. Tomorrow is supposed to be over 100F.
I hope you had a delightful day.
Today for you I am wearing pearls and my doggie tee. For the heat and to play on the floor, I am wearing long linen culottes.

Tee shirt dress ETA: more Casual Dresses

It”s a Sunday and a dress day. Here is my tee shirt dress entry. It has performed well on a hot day. Tomorrow may be hot so I plan to try a denim shirt waist and to add a photo to this thread
Details on tee shirt dress, an older EF dress in linen and cotton blend knit. Shoes are also EF. A recent sale online purchase and great for summer in place of sandals. These are called “opal” color, a pinky beige with a tiny gold metallic stripe. These are 1/2 size larger than my usual size and fit perfectly. The small bag is a European brand via consignment...Sherpai.
It feels well made with an easy zipper closure and several pockets inside.
My hope is that the light leather detail blends with the espadrilles. Does it?
If needed, I could use a long black linen cardi or big white linen shirt as a topper. I wore this to watch church services on utube. Sad as it is our priest’s last service after more than 50 years as an active parish priest. The new guy, very young, starts next week and has huge shoes to fill, not only in the parish but in the whole community.

Tee Challenge Part 2: Edited to add More.

Thank you, Sal, for this challenge.
To continue me wearing of short sleeved tees,:
#1/2: :a navy with white striped tee with front tie with new white pull on jeans. It was warm so I did not wear a tank under the tee as usual. Big mistake, tummy shows at slit. The jeans are NYDJ and need to be shortened. The fabric is thick and too warm for most summer days.
What do you think?
3/4: silver head to toe. These jeans hit pretty low although they work with my glucose meter this way. Tee is EF knit and cardigan is thrifted, the tee is a bit oversized at XS and jeans and cardigan are iffy, shoes are EF silver espedrilles and a half size too large, Small shoulder bag is from a consignment shop. Too much? Does some of this need to go?
5/6; a column of rust. EF pants rolled up, Madewell pleated woven tee,
Citron kimono top/ jacket, Naturalizer flats and consignment bag. Made = by-me rusty pearl necklace and apple coral earrings from a trip to Hawaii.
This was comfortable and seemed right for both dog walking and a trip to Target with mask and added bigger silver and gold bag with small one.
Suggestions? Your comments and thoughts are welcome,
ETA: #8: Ted Baker pink floral tee. #9/10: Statue of Liberty tee with EF white linen crops, KS bag, white flats white star earrings. I am tempted to cut a slit I. The bottom of this tee and tie it in a square knot like the tee in #1. Should I or leave it?
