The white button-down: So crisp, so helpful, so versatile—a closet is incomplete with out one. (Trend icons have been throwing them on for many years. So has your dad.) Under, some classic model inspo from a latest Pinterest deep dive, plus the modern-day outfit-finishers to go together with.

FOR SUMMER
Strolling from seashore to city to farmers’ market requires one thing actually, actually versatile: Billowy shirting is the linchpin that ties all of your warm-weather workhorses—vibrant swimsuit, light denim, woven basket—collectively.

FOR THE MIDSEASON
When it’s too nippy to go layerless however too gentle for outerwear, a light-weight long-sleeve (worn open, sleeves pushed up) is the proper pairing for that slip gown you possibly can’t cease sporting. End the look with sneakers, sexily smudged lips, and one thing shiny in your finger.

FOR FALL
Crisp shirt + polished denim + his-for-her jacket = a trend formulation that by no means fails. Is it notably groundbreaking? Perhaps not. Does it come off as effortlessly stylish, particularly when grounded with leather-based equipment and an edgy-meets-elegant ear cuff? Completely.
