Literally Just Trying to Teach Shirt, Minimalist Bow Comfort Colors Teacher Tee

Literally just trying to teach — one school day at a time.

Created for teachers who prefer quiet humor and clean typography over colorful classroom clipart, this design offers an understated adult boutique look that is easy to wear throughout the school year. The warm ivory lettering, dark espresso outline, and restrained sage bow create a muted palette designed to pair beautifully with garment-dyed Comfort Colors shirts.
