The White Shirt

Well, it seems that the latest “fashion trend” is the basic white button shirt. It is showing up everywhere and is a wonderful staple for your wardrobe, because it can be changed so easily. One hint …spend a little more for a high quality blouse that doesn’t wrinkle…. you will thank yourself every single time you go to put that blouse on.
Here are some ideas:
1. Buy some beautiful buttons and change them for the standard ones that come on your shirt. If you buy silver buttons, wear a fabulous silver necklace with it; gold buttons, try gold jewelry. A great look for the office with a simple skirt or slacks.
2. Wear a pull-over sweater over the shirt with just the collar & cuffs exposed. You can also “go collegiate” and tie your cardigan sweater over your shoulders.
3. Wear under a jumper, with pearls and glamorous shoes for a dinner.
4. For the beach, tie it at your waist and add some funky jewelry, a hat and long skirt and you are in your “island mode”.
5. Then the classic look with your denim jeans where nothing looks as crisp and casual as this. Try adding a bright belt and a scarf or hair color!
