Staple Saturday: the timeless White Button Down

At the current moment, I own 4 of white button downs: Classic, 3/4 sleeve, short sleeve, and the boyfriend cut.

In my opinion it is the single most versatile piece of fabric that should be hanging in your closet. It can be worn with just about everything. Shorts, jeans, slacks, skirt, or over a dress. You can wear it with pearls and a black pencil skirt to work or with a pair of leather shorts and booties for night time.

My personal favorite - (Monday's Outfit for work - picture to come)
white shirt + straight jeans + cute belt + big necklace + tan or nude shoes + tan or black bag


Let's give some examples...

Full skirt always works well with a more structured shirt
Leather shorts, great for fall and big trend for 2012, pairs well the boyfriend blouse
Belted Maxi Skirts bring in a relaxed feel but still look put together.
