Summer Chambray

July 7, 2015 63 Comments

I was a little tardy for the party when it came to the chambray trend. Last fall when everyone was pulling out their denim shirts, I was holding off knowing that button down dress shirts don’t look the best on my shape.

When the warm weather months came and the chambray trend carried over into short sleeve button downs, I jumped at the chance to finally wear a look I love.

I found this shirt at Target and fell in love with the soft knit and roll-up sleeve detailing.

I love how chambray looks with white and have been enjoying wearing this top tucked into white skirts, over white shorts, and tied over white dresses.

This skirt is from LOFT and is unfortunately sold out, but I found some similar options at some of my other favorite stores.

Questions of the Day: Are you a fan of chambray? Do long sleeve button down shirts look weird on you like they do on me? Do you prefer white shorts, skirts, or dresses?

    I have a few chambray shirts and I love them! However, I don’t have a short-sleeve one…I love it and it would be so easy to dress up or down!

    Gorgeous! I really love the look of chambray, but have a hard time styling it on myself. I may just need to invest in a white skirt!

    I seriously wish I knew how to put cute outfits together. It’s a skill that I had in college (I was a lot more adventurous with clothes back when I was sitting in GenEds with fashion students), but lost when I stopped using it (same with makeup and hairstyling. Who knew?!). I’m a jeans/t-shirt kind of girl, but I’d love to be able to look semi-fashionable for work.

    I like the chambray look, but I have been late to embrace it. You did a great job styling that shirt and I love it with the white skirt. Definitely a good look for summer!

    I’m totally with you – I just bought my first chambray shirt two weeks ago! And now I can’t wear it enough 🙂 I’m not sure if button downs look weird on me. I’ve had to wear them since I was little (Catholic school uniform) haha. And I love white shorts, skirts, and dresses but honestly white denim jeans are my absolute fave 🙂
