How to wear a white shirt (part two)




Still haven't worn my white shirt with the crazy floral pants but I'm working on it. Right? In the meantime, another inspirational woman who gives good shirt is Michelle Obama. Sometimes keeping it simple with Capri pants or a pencil skirt, on other occasions having fun with a signature belted cardigan or sweater - but always providing a masterclass in grown-up style.


So, as promised here's a selection of some the best white shirts around:

One of my favourites is this dolman sleeve shirt from Gap.


Boy. By Band of Outsiders from Net-a-Porter.
If only I could afford the ultimate white silk shirt from Equipment.







Michelle Obama is not afraid of a ruffle.

 Get the look at Comptoir des Cotonniers.

    Ah, Michelle O. can wear yesterday's tee shirt and look fab. I really like the dolman sleeve GAP blouse, and I don't think I've seen it on our side of the water. And the last, ruffled blouse is gorgeous!

    I'm always on the lookout for a comfortable white shirt because I think it can really smarten your outfit. It's difficult to find them, though, so I am grateful for all your suggestions.

    Great post, thank you!

    Mrs Obama has advantage of her skin color. White looks so fresh against a darker skin tone.
    Just looking at your picks, I notice the difference.

    A white, crisp shirt always makes me "feel" pulled together, even if I'm not ;-)
    I love the way Michelle Obama wears hers :-)

    I love white blouses...but dread the care of them.
