Five Ways to Style a White Shirt

The most useful piece in your wardrobe, worn five different ways, from the office to the beach.

Five Ways to Style a White Shirt

If you only invest in one top this year, make it a crisp white shirt in a slightly oversized fit. It works harder than anything else you own.

Five looks

  • Tucked into wide-leg trousers with loafers for the office
  • Open over a swimsuit as a beach cover-up
  • Knotted at the waist over a slip skirt for dinner
  • Layered under a knit vest with the collar out
  • Worn as a light jacket over a tee and jeans

Look for cotton poplin for a crisp finish or a cotton and linen blend for summer. Check that the buttons sit flat across the chest when you move your arms.

Roll the sleeves twice, never neatly. It looks better slightly undone.
