I collect classic pieces for a versatile wardrobe. They are like the basic building blocks that form the structure of a wardrobe. So age doesn’t matter. For easy, laid-back and casual dressing, a chambray or denim shirt is an essential. In this post, I am exploring how to wear a chambray shirt with ease and style, in order to get the most enjoyment and wear from it.
Chambray is like denim but lighter and softer so it makes a comfortable shirt. You could also use an actual denim or a chambray-color tencel shirt interchangeably.
I’ll start with the general ways that you can style a chambray shirt, and then follow up with over 45 specific ideas for how to wear it. Choose your favorite outfit combinations and wear them in your favorite ways. I hope you will then come back and leave a reply below to let us know what worked for you!

Sweatpants can be part of a stylish outfit whether around the house or out on the town. You can be comfortable and look great at the same time. Age doesn’t matter. In this post, I have plenty of ideas for you for how to wear sweatpants when you’re not at the gym.
Because of it’s lasting popularity, athleisure has now become a classic style. You can buy luxe athletic clothes or dress up athletic clothes that you already own. In this post, I will explore how to embellish your sweatpants.
Here’s what one retail analyst told Vogue Business:
“We are reluctant to continue calling [athleisure] a trend… much in the same way that denim is not a trend,” said Mintel retail analyst Chana Baram. “Rather, sports clothing is embedded in the fashion world.” – from Vogue Business

I think yoga pants get a bad rap. But perhaps I view them from a unique angle. I wear leggings but I do not have any yoga leggings. All my yoga pants are boot-cut. I find them comfortable because they have the stretch of leggings; and I find them convenient because they go easily from yoga practice to the street. So let’s take a closer look at how to wear yoga pants out and about.
I’ll wear yoga pants not only when doing yoga but also when lounging at home, when doing errands around town and when at business casual events. It depends on the type of yoga pants. Black ones in a nice material can even by styled for casual evenings.
The main thing to keep in mind when wearing yoga pants is that your top should come down low enough all the way around so that it covers your rear. That’s the difference between classy and trashy. And when you’re classy, age doesn’t matter.
