Styling an oversized button-up for high summer.
A classic white button-up shirt– do you have one? If so, do you only wear it at the office? Let me present another way to style it: super casual and as part of a summer outfit. I took this (really affordable) white button-up shirt, sized up to maximize the slouchiness, and tucked half of it into these One Teaspoon shorts I’ve been wearing all summer long. Then I popped the collar (in a fabulous-grandma-on-holiday way, not in an early-2000s-frat-boy way), unbuttoned a few (okay, most) of the top buttons, and cuffed the sleeves.
The finishing touch? Those neon sandals you saw back in early April for KCFW. I love the way they punch up this look (although it works with flats/sneakers, too, don’t you worry). A neon statement bracelet brought in another hint of neon to round things out.
Shop the look:
I love the idea of taking a classic piece like a white button-up and spinning it for a casual ensemble. A great way to shake up your wardrobe + stretch your closet, too. And wearing it a bit oversized means you stay cooler than if the shirt was fitted. I don’t know about you, but the last thing I want to worry about is sweating through a tight white shirt. No thanks. Want to test drive this look? Borrow your significant other’s/dad’s if you don’t have your own and your fave pair of cutoffs.

Sometimes the simplest of things are the best,
and this outfit is just like that, simple and looks great on you. Love the heels too.

Yayyy, I’m so glad you dig it! Happy Hump Day!
That top and those shorts truly are the perfect summer look. So easy and breezy. I see some raw hem shorts in my future.
I like the raw hem but the fact the rest of the shorts are intact (and not super distressed). Makes ’em really wearable!
Such a big fan of the neon sandals finish! Adds such a spark to the outfit 🙂
