Getting Back to Shirts and Styling Some New Looks

Shirts are that category of clothing that never got much attention before, although they had always been one of the most stylish of all others. Previously worn by men, it didn't take much time for shirts to enter women's wardrobe. And we could see women from certain parts of the world wearing shirts since antiquity. Be it with a pair of trousers or with a sleek skirt, women have been styling shirts (anciently often known as blouses in some places) for a long time now. And when women shirts entered the fashion industry, designers saw endless opportunities in just a glance. 

Fashionistas try and test several new versions every season to wear a shirt in a more chic way, and so, modern women are never out of options. Shirts are becoming more versatile and stylish day-by-day, and if we want to stay up-to-date with fashion, we need to wear them more often. Ditch all those boring ways of wearing a shirt! Here we have plenty of ideas for you to wear a shirt in many ways and look fabulous in every ensemble. Include these shirt styles in your clothing collection, and you can keep styling them in several techniques for different occasions. Let's get started -

Styling your Black or White Shirts

If you love shirts, then there is no doubt you own a black or a white one. These neutral colours are part of every woman's closet, and they are the easiest ones to style with other pieces. Neutral colours look best with simple bottoms like jeans, trousers, skirts, etc. If you want a subtle, sober look, go for a pair of wide-leg jeans with a white shirt. Tuck it in or let some parts of its end drop loose. You can go for a black or any coloured tube top and put on a white shirt with jeans and palazzos. Tie the shirt ends at the front for a more relaxed look. You can also try your neutral shirts above your A-line dresses for a new look. Match your white shirts with pearl earrings and silver or white gold chains. Dainty diamond accessories or subtle solitaire jewellery can also look fab.

Bright Printed Shirts are a Big Yes!

It is the spring-summer season, and what our wardrobe needs is a time-out from those dull winter colours. Splash some colours into your attire with a multi-coloured printed shirt over a pair of jeans or trousers. Add-on some hoop earrings and layered necklaces along with some gemstone bracelets if you want some more vibrant vibes. Heels can be excellent but white sneakers or coloured boots can take your look to the next level. A fantastic pair of shades, and you are ready for your weekend staycation. Choose prints that remind you of the cheerful spring-summer days or nature or anything lovely like watermelons.

Let's Play Colour block with Solid Shirts

Solid coloured shirts seem so boring, but when paired with the right colour can look like the perfect ensemble made for the runways. The colour block trend of 2021 can be easily incorporated into your daily casuals with solid shirts and coloured pants or jeans/jeggings. You can go for a burnt orange shirt with a pair of leaf green jeans, topped with yellow gold jewellery and a couple of brown or orange sneakers. Or pick a hot pink shirt with a pair of white trousers and add some rose gold jewellery or pearl accessories with pink shoes. Similarly, dark coloured shirts can be paired with lighter shades of jeans or pants. You can also steal some awesome coloured shirts from your boyfriend/husband's wardrobe.

Checked Shirt in the wardrobe – Checked! 

Checked shirts are favourite ones for some people, primarily men. However, women can flex great style in them too. Checked shirts are meant to be worn above a t-shirt or top. Many fashionistas still follow the same rule wearing a checked shirt with colour variations and a twist here-n-there in accessorising. If you have a checked shirt of your size, you can wear it normally, tie the front ends, or button it backwards. If you own a checked shirt that is smaller than your size, then you can wear it over a tank top to make it look like a cropped jacket. If your shirt is oversized or slightly bigger, you can use it like a jacket on anything – top, tee, dress, romper or maybe another shirt. You can also wear it like a shirt-dress and drape it with a wide belt to make it look classy. Embellish the look with simple earrings like shiny ear huggies or simple drops.

Don't Shy away from Sheer Shirts 

Many of us are scared to even try sheer clothes because of too much skin-show and too much drama. But why worry when you can style them perfectly to look less creepy and more elegant. Sheer shirts are a way of beating the heat while projecting a more bold side of you. There are several methods to style a sheer or see-through shirt apart from wearing it simply over a camisole or strapless top. You can wear it as a jacket over a t-shirt, tank top, tube top or bra-top. A combo like that would be perfect for a beach look with denim shorts and bohemian jewels. Another way you can wear a sheer shirt is by wearing it under a bralette. This bralette look over a shirt is trendy among celebs and looks sharp and chic with pants or jeans.
