My friend Janet Gunn recently shared the items she just purged from her closet, along with pieces she’s adding in. On that note, I thought I’d tap her again to share some more of the staples she’s excited to wear this spring. Specifically, she shared the one dress style she’s currently living in and will continue to wear on repeat for the season. The style in question? Yep, it's the shirtdress. For reference, her favorite styles are by designer Elaine Kim.
The silhouette is a go-to because of the highly versatile nature. She loves that she can easily dress her favorite pick up or down. So with that in mind, she shared some of the outfit formulas she’s turning to when she is in fact wearing her tried-and-true shirtdress. We’re talking everything from a chic ensemble featuring sneakers and a denim jacket to a look with booties and stylish accessories.
Keep scrolling to check out a range of imagery showcasing various ways to style a shirtdress, complete with inspired shopping picks.
