White Blouses, Anything But Basic
With an end to rain in sight, it seems the perfect time to explore your options for wearing a true wardrobe staple, the white blouse. White blouses are both timeless and classic, a piece that every woman should have in their wardrobe. They can be worn lots of different ways, making them a must-have for our style-conscious customers.
Here are some of the top ways to style a white blouse this year:
1 Pair with Denim: A white blouse and denim make the perfect combination. It’s a classic look that will never go out of style. You can pair your white blouse with wide-legged jeans, high-waisted jeans, cropped denim, flares, or even denim shorts. Add a statement necklace or earrings to add some extra glam to your look.
2 Tuck into a Skirt: A white blouse tucked into a skirt is an elegant and sophisticated look that can be dressed up or down. A pencil skirt is a great option for the office, while a flowy maxi skirt is perfect for a casual summer day. You can add a belt or tie your blouse to cinch at the waist to create a more defined silhouette.
3 Layer Under a Blazer: A white blouse is the perfect base layer for a blazer. This look is great for the office or for a more formal event. You can opt for a classic black blazer or try something more bold like a bright pink or patterned blazer. And to keep your look fresh, not stuffy, wear your shirt untucked under a blazer with a relaxed, oversized fit.
4 Pair with Statement Bottoms: If you want to make a statement, pair your white blouse with bold bottoms like printed pants, leather leggings, or a brightly colored skirt. To balance the look from top to bottom, again, add a colorful statement necklace or even a sling bag with some color.
5 Dress it Down with Sneakers: A white blouse doesn’t always have to be dressy. You can dress it down by pairing it with sneakers and jeans for a comfy, casual look. Accessorize with a statement bag, big sunglasses, and some red lipstick. You're good to go.
6 Layer Over a Dress: Layering a white blouse over a dress is a fun and unexpected way to wear this classic piece. This look works best with a dress that has a defined waistline or a flowy skirt. You can tie the blouse at the waist to create a more defined silhouette.
7 Under a Vest: Vests are really having their day this season and will continue to do so. For chilly spring days or for the office, throw a classic white blouse under a shrunken vest for a look that is oh-so-current.
