I have begun to dress down a little since I've gotten my IWB Minotaur. I've realized how easy it is to carry with that thing and just a loose t-shirt that is long enough. One size up with some color is good enough. Even a white one is good if it's not too thin.
Shirts with a pattern hide bulges much better than solid colors. It doesn't have to be full Hawaiian - any pattern helps break up the contours of a bulge.

If you have to go with a solid color, dark colors work better than light.
Definitely! I think I only have one t-shirt with a pattern down to where my carry bulge would be. I don't go with just the t-shirt very often, but know that I can.
Plaid pattern button front shirts by companies like Dickies (often available for $12 or so in WalMart) are terrific bulge hiders and they fit in very well in any informal environment in TX.
