Borrowing from the Boys: The Oxford Shirt

Sunday Best oxford shirt
J Brand cropped jeans
Everlane "High-Low" belt
Chanel wallet on chain
Cheap Monday + Madewell cuff

The stripe blue oxford has been a classic in my Husband's closet of dress shirts for work, but I've been wanting to find one of my own. This one I bought from Aritzia is perfectly slouchy, but not baggy in the arms (the trouble I find with actually borrowing clothes from the boy). Lately, I've been throwing it on with simple mixed metal accessories as an easy Emmanuelle Alt-esque uniform.

    Love that shirt. It fits you perfectly! And so true about the shoulders in men's clothes. Borrow my boyfriend's sweaters now and then, but always look a bit like I'm drowning. :) You look fab!

    I've been searching for that perfect blue shirt and not had any luck. I thought I'd found one online but we didn't mesh when we came over so my search continues.
