Why Not Wearing White After Labor Day Makes No Sense… So Let’s Wear Something Better!

Why Not Wearing White After Labor Day Makes No Sense… So Let’s Wear Something Better! - Riley Ink

We’ve all heard it before: “No white after Labor Day.” But what’s the deal with this rule, and why are we still following it like it’s set in stone? If white is out, maybe it’s time to rethink our approach to fall fashion and swap those plain whites for something a lot more fun—like vibrant, funny graphic tees that add personality and humor to your wardrobe. Let’s explore why this outdated rule could use a refresh and why funny graphic tees are the perfect replacement!

The Origins of the "No White After Labor Day" Rule:

The “no white after Labor Day” rule dates back to the late 19th and early 20th centuries, when it made some practical sense. White clothing was a symbol of summer leisure, worn by those who could afford to escape the city heat. When people returned to their routines after Labor Day, they switched to darker, more practical clothing for the changing weather. But here we are, decades later, and this rule still lingers—despite our wardrobes, and lifestyles, having evolved quite a bit since then!

Why This Rule Is Ready for an Update:

If this fashion rule was really about the seasons, why stop at just banning white? Why not lean into the seasonal shift with clothes that actually represent the time of year? That’s where funny graphic tees come in! Instead of retiring half your wardrobe just because of a date on the calendar, why not embrace the fall spirit with tees that are as hilarious as they are stylish?

Our graphic tees capture the essence of the season far better than a blanket “no white” rule ever could. Think about it: what’s more fitting for fall—a closet full of colorless garments, or a lineup of shirts that celebrate the sports, holidays, and humor of the season?

Embrace the Season with Topical Graphic Tees:

Let’s make this simple: if you want to update your wardrobe for fall, do it in a way that truly reflects the season.

  • For Sports Fans:
    If you’re spending your Sundays glued to the TV or on the field, we’ve got the perfect tees for you. Show off your fantasy football obsession with our “Waiver Wire Wizard” tee. Or, if your team is more of a disaster than a dynasty, the “I Stink at Fantasy Football” tee is the way to go. Not only do they capture the essence of fall sports, but they also make for great conversation starters at any tailgate or game-day party.

  • Get in the Halloween Spirit:
    And then there’s Halloween—a whole season of its own. Why not start early with our “Pumpkin Spice Cult Leader” tee, perfect for the pumpkin spice enthusiast who takes their fall flavors seriously. Or bring some sass to the season with our “Whattup Witches” tee, which is just as great for a casual Halloween hangout as it is for the big night itself.

And There’s More to Come…

If you’re already thinking ahead to the holiday season, don’t worry—we’ve got you covered there, too. Our collection is always growing, with new designs that will keep you laughing and looking good from Halloween to the holidays and beyond. Stay tuned for more tees that will help you celebrate every season in style.

Outdated Fashion Rules—Let’s Have Some Fun with Them:

While we’re on the topic of retiring old rules, why stop at “no white after Labor Day”? Let’s take a look at a few more that are ready for a revamp:

  1. “No Socks with Sandals.”
    Who says comfort can’t be stylish? If you want to rock socks with your sandals, go for it. Pair them with one of our funny tees, and you’re making your own rules.

  2. “Don’t Mix Prints.”
    Fashion is about fun, not restrictions. Mix it up! Our graphic tees look great with anything, even your boldest patterns.

  3. “Match Your Shoes with Your Belt.”
    Why stick to a color code when you could be matching your mood instead? Throw on a tee that tells the world exactly how you feel and forget about all the old-school matching rules.
