What to Wear Now: White Boyfriend Shirt


After seasons of stretch, jersey and slinky fabrics, it's delicious to slip on something comforting like this all-cotton shirt.

There's something so chic and relaxed about a white boyfriend shirt like this, which has a slouchy fit, but not baggy (it skims the body). You can wear it now over slim jeans with flats on the weekend, then later under a fitted jacket or vest. It would also look great tucked into low-slung khakis or paired with leggings. Best of all, it comes in a load of sizes, XS-XXL in regular, petite and tall so everyone can wear it.

Which Shoes Should I Wear for Special Occasions?


Shoes should be at least the same color intensity or darker than the dress (not lighter) as a general rule (there are always exceptions) Go for a little shine for a special look, including beads or glitter or just a metallic gold, bronze or silver leather. Sandals, slingbacks and open-toed pumps are perfect for special occasions because they jazz up most dresses and look so feminine. You don't need stilettos, but women look best with a little bit of height added (at least an inch of heel).
