The Light Blue Shirt

You know that I’m a big fan of the white shirt for it’s versatility and of course it’s timeless appeal for those classic dressers amongst us, but equally stylish and handy to have in the wardrobe (and possibly more complimentary to various complexions) is the light blue shirt.

Wear it with..

• a denim skirt
• white jeans
• orange shorts
• a navy suit
• a statement skirt
• patterned pants
• denim cut-off shorts
• a leather skirt or culottes
• black pants

*Do keep in mind that although a blue shirt is a classic (timeless) piece, it will still date.  Remember shapes change. A blue shirt you bought back in the 90’s, while it still might be in impeccable condition if you’re not wearing it often, will more than likely be outdated today due to it’s large pointy collar, low armholes and wide sleeves.  If it’s a hard-to-part-with favourite, determine whether your shirt could be altered and modernised or whether you need to be ruthless and give it a toss.

TIP – Consider shopping in the men’s or boys section for a blue shirt.  As you can see in the pictures above it doesn’t need to be worn super fitted.  The one I’m wearing here is from the men’s dept. at Uniqlo.
