Its crispiness and simplicity never cease to deliver, be it a work meeting, project presentation, dinner with the in-laws or Saturday’s brunch with the girlfriends, a white shirt will always make you look good. I love them, I cannot stop buying them and I own quite a few of them. They are first runner-up to the white t-shirts as far as quantity goes. At first, I was not always such a fan, I remember the days back in elementary school when we had to wear a white button-up to every school ceremony, a sea of student-penguins is what we were. I think that is when my rebellious (or defiant as I like to call it) soul started resenting the white stiffness of the perceived uniform.
But now as I matured a bit, being in the prime of my youth (hey it is all in one’s head, says my 69 year old father- thriving 21 at heart) I perceive them as an A plus answer to every dressing-up test question one may have for me! Need something for a Friday night cocktails–white shirt and leather (if you are poor like me pleather) pants and heals are a perfect combo (additional bonus if they have ultraviolet lights in da house, I tested and nothing draws more smiles and fist bumps than half of you glowing in the dark). Need something for a quick lunch with your girlfriends on a Sunday afternoon? White button-up and a pair of boyfriend jeans will do! I promise that you will look like you got this, effortlessly and with this surprising, duh-kind of wow-factor. So lets uniform unite, white button-ups we go!
Here is a great selection of white button-up shirts:
