This Trending Basic Will Make Any Wardrobe Feel Fashionable Right Now
I recently highlighted the power of the white button-down shirt. The piece is not only classic but is also incredibly forward at the moment. Well, on the other end of the spectrum comes the colorful blouse. Yep, the fashion crowd is also embracing vibrant shirting—especially in oversize silhouettes.
The beauty of this item is that it's one of the next-level basics that are very versatile and could be worn with a smattering of pieces. For example, you could try the colorful shirt in green, pink, or yellow with your favorite pair of jeans and sneakers. Another idea would be testing the shirt over a cropped tank, complete with a pretty skirt and heeled sandals. Basically, this trending basic will make any look and wardrobe feel fashionable now.
