~ Here are a few ways to take a classic button up shirt to the next level ~
THE CLASSIC
A few buttons undone at the top, a french tuck and rolled up sleeves. *chef's kiss* This is a super classic and effortlessly chic way to rock a button up shirt, add a red lip and some statement gold jewels and you're good to go.
OPEN IT UP
Button ups serve as the perfect super lightweight cover up for warmer months. Pair it with a crop top for a little extra coverage, or over swimwear for a chic & comfy beachside look.
LAYERS UPON LAYERS
Add a bandeau or structured crop top over your button up shirt for a fun layered look, that's super flattering. It plays with silhouettes and adds an edge to an otherwise very simple outfit. For a wintery spin try layering a turtleneck underneath.
LOOSE & FLOWY
This works best with a shirt that is a few sizes bigger than what you'd normally wear! Leave your shirt completely untucked, do up only one or two buttons near your bust and leave the sleeves loose. This creates a very cool boyfriend style silhouette & pairs great with heels for a perfect mix of feminine & masculine elements.
MONOCHROME
Wearing one colour head to toe is the easiest way to look like you put a lot of thought into a look, without actually putting said thought into said look. Neutrals in particular, think all white, all beige, all black for an effortlessly cool girl vibe.
OFF THE SHOULDER
Having your shirt hanging off your shoulders slightly is a super easy way to spice up a simple outfit. It instantly makes your outfit look more put together and adds a flirty element to the overall look.
