Summer is a time to relax and have fun! Even our outfits are more laid back and comfy! However, style doesn’t have to suffer. Take, for example, styling the classic button-up shirt for summer!
Originally a predominately male closet staple, the button-up shirt has become a fundamental piece in most women’s wardrobe! Whether you are talking about stripes, dots, patterns, or the classic white button-up, they are a stylish and feminine look for everyone this summer.
No matter if you are wearing your shirt tied at your waist with a sleek slip skirt, tucked neatly into your white trousers, casually half-tucked with your favorite pair of denim, or as a part of your leisurewear look, the classic button-up is your best friend!
So, let’s take a quick look at four fresh ways to style this closet staple this summer!
Look #1 Fun and Flirty
This first way to style this button-up shirt is fun and flirty. Take this classic shirt and dress it up with a slip skirt and simply tie it at the waist. This white button-up shirt by Grayson is super lightweight and cool for those hot summer days and the perfect choice for this outfit. The washed cotton, Colette, also has an open collar that gives it a super feminine look. Adding some chunky pearls, an oversized bag, and strappy heels for an evening out with friends gives it a definite casual chic vibe!
Look #2 Neutral Goodness
This second look is an all-neutral look. There is no better time than the summer to wear all white. It is so fresh and clean, and it screams summer! Add a few neutral accessories like a pair of woven mules, leather belt, and felt hat. Of course, this Grayson shirt is long enough you could go with the untucked look for a more laid back style as well! I’m kind of partial to the design of these Grayson style shirts due to the fact they have taken such great precision in all the details. It even has a ladybug for good luck sewn on the inside flap of the shirt!
Look #3 Sit Back and Relax
Maybe this casual, laid back look with long denim shorts and criss-cross slides are more what you had in mind. I love the rolled sleeve detail here, the relaxed open collar, and the blue stripes. Also that you can tuck the shirt in at the front, yet remain untucked in the back for a casual look. This tissue cotton, Marissa, Grayson shirt is long enough to cover the bum if left untucked! The fabric is crisp and lightweight for those hot summer evenings we have here in Houston, Texas!

Look #4 So Sporty
Athleisure wear is a huge trend right now. Add to that the bike short trend and you’ve got yourself a winner! It doesn’t matter if you tie your Grayson button-up shirt at your waist, half-tuck it so that the back covers your bum, or let it hang naturally. This look will be your best friend year-round! You might even add a denim jacket, long cardi, or moto jacket when the weather cools off a bit! Just so many options with this style shirt!
As you can see, the button-up shirt is made for everyday use! It’s polished and pulled-together, but also a perfect fit for the way we live this “stay-at-home” life right now!
If you don’t already have an essential white button-up hanging in your closet right now, it’s time to go shopping, friends! Also, the classic blue striped shirt is a must-have for every season! In the end, both of these tops will prove to be the most versatile and hardworking in your wardrobe!Where to find my favorite button-up shirt
