Denim Do: 10 New Ways to Wear Chambray
It’s not exactly a new trend. The chambray top has been everywhere for the past few years. But is it just us, or are you feeling a little meh about your go-to button-up lately? Well, forget that! Give your staple shirt an update or invest in one of our new must-have chambray pieces. You’ll be glad you did.
1. Polka Dot Party: Just put a pattern on it! White polka dots are the perfect add-on to a plain chambray shirt. (via Wit and Delight)
2. Dress It Up ($138): Why not take the shirt and stretch it down a few inches (or a few feet?). This dress is the perfect garment to throw on when you’re in a rush to get out the door.
3. Sparkle Crazy: Dress up your comfortable jean top with some shiny sequins and sparkles — perfect for a night out on the town. (via Corals and Cognacs)
4. Tie Dye Time: Give your used and abused top a tie dye makeover. Pink paint, stencils and a little DIY transforms this guy into a concert-worthy statement piece. (via Brit + Co.)
5. Classic Denim ($78): Rock some of J. Crew’s classic chambray in a not-so-classic cut: the popover! Jean on jean on jean.
6. Skirt Style ($70): A beautiful, handmade circle skirt is just the piece to grab up for spring.
7. Going Halfsies: Tuck one side of the front in, the other out, for a casual cool vibe. And those stripes are an added bonus! (via Bella the Blog)
8. Tuck It In: Work attire has never been more cool: Tuck your chambray top into your favorite pencil skirt for a dressed up, yet casual vibe. (via Penny Pincher Fashion)
9. Knot a Style Problem: A pocket-length button up turns into a jacket in an instant when treated to some savvy knotting. (via Bows and Sequins)
10. Pattern + Layers: Give a summer dress new life by layering a chambray top underneath. Your top gets a new purpose (it adds warmth!) and your dress will get an entirely new look too! (via All Dolled Up)
