Button-Downs: Upping Your Style Is Easy
Can you believe Spring is NEXT week?! At least in the desert, Winter can never be long enough 😂🙏🏻.
But Spring has such fun moments. And many of them… to be dressed appropriately! It’s a moment for us to feel the shedding of our winter clothes and bring on some fresh new pieces.
While I DO love, indeed, a seasonal shift in my closet (and one I do majorly, bi-annualy)… there is an unsung hero I keep no matter WHAT the season.
The classic button-down.
Now, no joke, these literally stay in my closet because they are just SO wearable. Whether you’re putting a crew neck over it in the winter with your coat or wearing it loosely, front tucked into a linen skirt in the warmer weather - there really is a way to make it work all year around!
Even better, you feel like Ina Garten where you’re whipping up lunch or dinner!
Here are 5 ways to make your button down make it work the best for you:
Easily use it to elevate jeans or shorts
Contrast a tailored button down with softer fabrics in skirts like a pleated skirt, or a silk or charmeuse skirt.
Be creative with how you form the collar, make it work for you.(adding a cardigan over the shoulders can also make a big difference!).
Play with sizing, you don’t always have to buy your precise size - make the shirt work for you and not the other way around.
Know your fabrics. What textile is going to serve you the best?
And here are some fun links for you to shop!
Question: Do you say button-UP or button-DOWN? 😂
