The Basic Chambray

Do you remember that denim on denim look Britney and Justin had going on back in the day?

Well it’s back! It might not be that drastic, but denim is definitely a popular style right now. Whether it be a dress or blouse, you can definitely stay trendy with this look. Another plus is you can make denim work in several ways too!

A chambray top, which others may call a denim button-up, is a great base to have in your closet. If you already have one, you are already on the right track!

A lighter shade will go great with those dark jeans, and you can really get creative on accessorizing. I will admit that I did pay a little more for my top, but I believe it was a great investment. I’ve had my chambray top for going on four years now, and it still looks brand new. I have both a lighter and darker shades that I wear ALL THE TIME.

A tip for this top is always iron or take it to the cleaners. It is an easy touch to make your look dressy, without rolling out that dough.
