Chambray For Work And Play

One of the items that every closet needs is a chambray shirt.  Talk about a work-horse!  It goes with almost everything, can be dressed up or down and even better, you don't have to spend a fortune...mine actually came off of the Target clearance rack. ($9)

Here are two examples....

Work

J Crew Forever Cardigan in Light Spearmint - Size S
Merona for Target Chambray Shirt - Size S
J Crew Seersucker Pencil Skirt - Size 4
J Crew Viv Leopard Flats


Play

Merona for Target Chambray Shirt - Size S
American Eagle Skinnys - Size 4
J Crew Bubble Necklace (via Ebay)
Michael Kors Loafers


Do you have a chambray shirt in your closet?  If so, is it in high rotation like mine?

    YES! Love it so much I looked for and found another (Ann Taylor Outlet) that is darker - might even be black chambray to add variety. Looking for a good red one - the one from old navy was too pinky orange. I already have a blue popover chambray from Coldwater Creek and the J Crew factory version.

    You are really tempting me with those necklaces....ebay mmm?

    I just blogged about chambray today too! Great minds think alike :) I totally agree - a chambray shirt is such a great basic to have in a closet. Many outfit combos to be made!

    I'm doing a personal chambray challenge this week - wearing my chambray shirts, red and blue, 6 different ways. You inspired my chambray purchase a couple of months ago when you posted about them from Old Navy. Thanks! Laura

      So glad the chambray purchases were a hit! :o)

    I'm hunting for a nice chambray shirt. I think it will be a great piece for everyday and can last a while.

      Definitely! You NEED one! You'll wonder how you ever lived without it! I swear, I've worn mine so much that I'm surprised its not thread-bare! :o)
