To "have" your shirt "on" is a phrasal verb, meaning to "wear" your shirt. If we actually say to "wear", then we don't use the word "on" (as it is not used as part of a phrasal verb with the verb to "wear"). When we use to "be on" in reference to your shirt, that is another phrasal ver similar to to "have... on".

A small correction: "You're wearing your T-shirt on inside out." sounds a little strange, but "You have got your T-shirt on inside out." is common. "You're wearing your T-shirt inside out." is perfect. Good luck!
