Just like denim jeans and the LBD, the button-down shirt is a classic staple. Trends come and go, but the button-down shirt will always remain an essential in every woman’s wardrobe. From desk to dinner, all it takes is a pair of heels, maybe a jacket, and a bold lip to dress up the casual piece. Since they go with almost anything and everything, the not-so-basic basic always comes in handy when you have no clue what to wear because we’ve already justified that there’s more than one way to wear it. We all know the effortless half-tuck, the knot, and the layer-something-on-top-of-it look, but if you’re looking for a fresh alteration, we’ve got you covered. See the 5 new ways you can wear your button-down shirt below:
