The staple white shirt is a wardrobe classic. Clean, crisp and totally versatile, it is one of those reliable pieces that we can count on to go with everything, and always looks super chic.

As with any go-to basic, it’s always good to have a few tips up your sleeve for updating and up-styling the piece, and these tips will ensure that your classic look never has to look boring.

 

Brooch

 

With statement jewellery having a serious moment this season, why not pop on a vintage brooch to really channel that classic vibe? Place the brooch in the spot between your collar tips, right over your top button, to switch things up.

 

Bow Tie

 

AW14 is all about retro revival, with sixties shift dresses with pussy-bow neckties popping up everywhere. Put a retro spin on your look by adding on a cute chiffon bow tie to a sophisticated shirt-and-pencil-skirt combo.

 

Statement Necklace

 

If this season’s trend forecast is anything to go by, we should all be dripping in jewels – great news for those who want to get extra mileage out of that favourite statement necklace. Our tip is to go for a really dramatic piece, and make it the focal point of your look by keeping the rest of your outfit really simple.

 

Collar Tips

 

For those who want to tone down the drama, a set of classic gold collar tips are a great addition to a white shirt. Adding the subtlest quirk to your outfit, they are the perfect accessory to liven up your work wardrobe.

 

Bibs

 

Before you get the wrong idea, no, we’re not talking about the baby type! The high street has gone crazy for the oversized fabric collar bib that attached just behind the neck to sit neatly over the top of your shirt. Rock a cute tartan number over your shirt to instantly punk up your look.

Forget about only pulling that white shirt out from the back of your wardrobe for occasional job interviews – it should be one of your style staples!

A crisp white shirt is a timeless item to have in your wardrobe. Whether you splurge on the perfect tailored option or just go for a basic one, you’ll find it easy to work your button-down into countless outfit combinations.

Here are a few stylish suggestions of ways to wear your white shirt:

1. Easy elegance
Stick to classic lines by teaming your white shirt with a pair of well-fitted skinny jeans. Add heels like Olivia Palermo for an evening-ready outfit, or wear with flats for a smart-casual look that will never date:

2. Colour pop
Add a shot of bold colour to your ensemble for a more youthful and fun way to wear a shirt. Jessica Alba really stands out with these bright red trousers, but try a jewel-toned skirt or even some statement jewellery for a more subtle twist:

3. Add texture
A white shirt is such a simple choice that you can really ramp up your look by adding textured fabrics or printed designs, like Victoria Beckham:

4. Dress it up
Make your shirt the base of your look by wearing it under a dress. Don’t go for a dress that’s too structured – relaxed and floaty fabrics work well. Dree Hemingway is totally on-point with this gorgeous pastel feathered dress:

5. Maxi madness
A maxi skirt and crisp white shirt make for a super-classy look that you can wear at formal events without feeling too stuffy. Emma Watson goes all Downton Abbey in this gorgeous grey silk skirt and loose white blouse:

6. Popped collar
Rather than going all out, wear your shirt under a cozy jumper and show off just the collar for a really feminine and pretty look. Kate Mara is the picture of understated elegance here:
