A clean look at balancing proportions: pairing a relaxed white shirt with structured wide-leg denim.
There is a reason a white shirt and denim jeans remain such a reliable fashion pairing. You can keep things simple, dress them up, or add a few accessories to give the combination a completely different feel. Dorathy Bachor recently showed us another way to wear the classic pairing, and we are taking notes.
The reality TV star styled an unbuttoned white button-down shirt over a black camisole, creating an easy layered look without making it feel too casual. She tucked the shirt into high-waisted, dark-wash wide-leg denim jeans, which came with an asymmetrical belted waist overlay and utility pocket detail for added character.
The beauty of pairing denim with a white shirt is that both pieces give you plenty of room to experiment. A dark wash keeps the jeans sleek, while the white shirt gives you a simple base that works with a camisole, fitted vest or tank top underneath. Leaving the shirt open, as Dorathy did, is also an easy way to make the outfit feel relaxed.
