How to Wear a Sleeveless Button Down Top

Top: H&M | Pants: Loft (Similar Gray, Similar Blue) | Shoes: DSW | Earrings: Loft (Similar)

Sleeveless button down (do you say “button down” or “button up?”) tops have been around for awhile now, but are still so popular and cute! This classic piece is one you need in your closet this summer. Button down shirts are easy to style and you automatically look put together while wearing one! I found the perfect one for you! It’s light weight, inexpensive (Only $13!), good quality and it’s not see through! It really is the perfect basic piece as we head into summer.

This top is great for so many occasions: work, errands, brunch, Target runs, etc. You can dress this top for almost any occasion. In the above photos, I am dressed for work. This is an easy way to look modest and professional while remaining stylish! The pants I am wearing are last years, but I was sure to link this year’s version (Same pants, a little different shade of gray). These LOFT dress pants have been perfect during the spring and summer months because of the light weight material and a light color.

Here are 6 Ways to Style One Top:

  1. White Denim: This all white look makes you look extra stylish for your casual brunch with the girls. I have always been a fan of the white-on-white look.
  2. Denim Mini Skirt: Unbutton the last two buttons and tie this shirt into a cute front knot. This look is cute for a casual lunch date.
  3. Paperbag Shorts: If you are going on a dinner date and don’t feel like wearing a dress, this is the perfect alternative! You look nice and put together while remaining comfortable. Just tuck this top into your favorite high waisted shorts and throw on some low heels and you’re ready to go!
  4. Boyfriend Jeans: When you’re feeling extra casual but still want to look cute, this is the look for you! Tie this shirt into a front knot, grab your boyfriend jeans and favorite mules and you are ready for that Target run you know you’re going to make.
  5. Denim Shorts: This is the most casual of the looks, but still looks put together. Tucking your top into your denim shorts polishes this look. Pair this with your sneakers and go conquer your to-do list! You can even chase after kiddos in this outfit (don’t let them get your white shirt dirty though HA!).
  6. Dress Pants (Shown above): Like I said earlier, this lightweight top looks professional when paired with your dress pants. It is a great way to feel comfortable and cool while still being work appropriate. I love how this top is modest too. You don’t have to worry about showing any cleavage during a meeting.
