| J. Crew Boy Shirt $69.50 |
When you look at all of your clothing and cry out: "I have nothing
to wear" it's time to pull out the white shirt, a timeless fashion
classic that is an essential in any woman's wardrobe.
The key element
is fit --- a fitted white shirt can be paired any number of ways, for
casual or professional wear. Look for a fitted shirt with a sleeve that
hits the wrist; you can also cuff the shirt for a casual look. Avoid
shirts that are too boxy or too big, or sleeves that are too long at the wrist or too
short. I made the mistake of purchasing a white shirt with three-quarter sleeves and the sleeves
are just too abbreviated to look fashionable.
A white shirt can be worn
peeking out of a blazer sleeve, paired with a skirt or pants, tucked into
a pencil skirt or worn with high-waisted slacks. Or try wearing a long
white shirt and allowing it to
peek out of the bottom of a mini skirt. Always fabulous with black
leather, look for a shirt with great buttons or an additional panel
where you button up to allow coverage if the shirt should pull apart so
that your bra stays covered.
Although we would
hesitate to wear leggings to the office, when paired with a long white
blouse and a blazer, it becomes professional attire.
A boxy white shirt can also serve as a "jacket" to top a tank top on a hot summer's day.
The possibilities are endless...!
