Being the poor college student that I am I find few instances where I can go shopping just for the fun of it. Most times I like to get a good bang for my buck–and who wouldn’t? I find that scavenging through sale racks and hunting thrift stores makes shopping a whole lot more fun. So when I find a piece that I can wear in more ways than one I feel like I’ve just won the lottery. Today, I showcase to you the sheer button down shirt. I got this one on SUPER sale at Urban Outfitters for $10 after Christmas (check this one out from Forever21) but didn’t start wearing it until the summer months showed up. Let’s have a look shall we…
A button down in any color can really transform your outfit. On the left I wear it unbuttoned over a dress. In the center I paired it with a maxi skirt and on the right with a fun romper.
For a more casual feel you can also pair the button down with a neon bandeau bra or have it do double duty as a bathing suit cover up! The key to pulling off this look is all in the knot. Tie it low to keep the shape of the shirt or you can nix the knot all together and just wear the shirt as you normally would. How would you wear it?
