There are certain pieces in everyone’s closet that naturally get worn on repeat, and the white shirt falls squarely into this camp. If you’re anything like me, you can always find a way to justify adding a new one to your collection, even if it’s only a slight variation of something you already own. Here, I paired this knotted one from Zara with the oldest pair of Levi’s in my closet. On a separate note, I seriously need to find a replacement for these jeans, as they are virtually crotchless at this point. I just love their relaxed fit and perfectly placed wear and tear. The agony!
Anywho, I finished the look with a classic high-low pairing by teaming these platforms that mimic the Stella McCartney ones I’m dying to have with my prized Gucci bag. I’ve rounded up some other summer-ready tops in every shape you might need—from a t-shirt with a personality to backless and off-the-shoulder versions. No matter how you slice it, summer whites are a go.
