Super Casual

It doesn’t take much to look classy, comfortable, and casual. All you need for this look is your trusty white button down shirt and a pair of jeans. If it’s a bit chilly outside, you can add a cardigan on top. For the most casual look, wear some sneakers. To class up this outfit, try wearing high heels!

Sweater Weather

Of course, one of the most classic combinations is a white button down shirt  under the sweater of your choice. This creates a smooth, dapper look while also keeping you warm in chilly weather. A short-sleeve sweater creates a unique look, but a long-sleeve sweater that only allows the cuffs of your shirtsleeves to be exposed creates a stunning look.

In the Summer

There’s no need to put away your button down shirts when the summer weather rolls around. If you have a nice, lightweight button down shirt, you can pair it with your favorite pair of denim shorts for a nice warm-weather look. A cropped button down will work well with shorts, but you can also tuck in a longer shirt. For more information, visit Runway Chef.

    A white button-down is one of my go-to pieces because it’s so versatile. I enjoy pairing it with jeans for a classic look or layering it under a blazer for something vintage clothes near me more polished. Knotting it at the waist or tucking it into skirts also gives it a fresh, stylish twist.
