Charlize in her Canadian tuxedo
Denim on denim on denim. Once referred to as the "Canadian tuxedo," chambray shirts paired with denim have become a fashionable duo. This monochromatic look makes a statement and, contrary to popular belief, can be dressed up or down. My chambray shirt is one of my favorite pieces as it matches everything, literally EVERYthing. I've worn it to work, to run errands, post-gym, layered over a dress... this shirt is easily the greatest investment I've ever made. There's a thousand different ways to style this piece, so without further ado, I have listed a few tips for styling, as well as my favorite chambray options for purchase below. Happy shopping denim divas!
Jcrew Keeper Chambray is my go-to top.
STYLING TIP: Pair with dark denim bottoms and a navy blazer with nude pumps for a monochromatic, polished look.
Madewell Two-Tone Chambray features two different denim washes for a color blocked look.
STYLING TIP: Pair with blue denim, or any other solid colored or printed jeans.
American Apparel Unisex Chambray (also available in short sleeves)
STYLING TIP: Layer under a sweater in the winter months, or over a dress in the sping/summer.
STYLING TIP: Tuck into a solid or printed pencil skirt with pumps for a profesh, yet stylish look.
BDG Classic Chambray Button-Down Shirt has a fun polka dot print.
STYLING TIP: Pair with any pair of solid colored shorts, lace shorts, OR printed shorts and tie the ends as shown.
Let this serve as a reminder to use CAUTION when styling denim. Here's to my fellow 90's kids who believe JT & Brit can still make it work!
