The Perfect Ruffled Shirt and How to Style it

A ruffled shirt is one of the easiest ways to add a feminine touch to any outfit. Subtle ruffles can really transform a whole outfit from a simple look to a statement ensemble. I don’t have too many ruffled pieces in my closet, but the one’s I do have are understated. I instantly fell in love with this shirt when I saw it at Target last Spring, and I just couldn’t resist! This is the perfect ruffled shirt because it is functional, versatile and did I mention, it has stripes? I constantly reach for striped pieces and I’ll be the first to admit that I wear stripes a little too often. (Not really, though because there’s no such thing as too many stripes… ha!). There’s nothing like a classic piece that’s fun yet timeless. 

This is the perfect ruffled shirt because it’s both feminine and classic. The ruffles add a girly twist to the classic-button down. I’m all about stripes, if you can’t already tell. Add some ruffles into the mix and I’m completely sold! This ruffled shirt is from the Who What Wear collection at Target. It is sold out but I have linked some similar options at the end of the post!

HOW TO STYLE THE PERFECT RUFFLED SHIRT
  • Pair it with denim: I chose high-waisted vintage style jeans but this top can complement any denim bottom like a white denim skirt, denim shorts or dark denim. 
  • Keep it simple: The perfect ruffled shirt calls for simple accessories so that the top can make a statement of its own! Pair with neutral accessories or add a fun pop of color. 
  • Wear to work: You can make a subtle statement at work and style this top with a pair of khaki slacks or a navy blue pencil skirt. Add some heels for a full, professional look.
HOPE YOU FOUND THESE STYLE TIPS HELPFUL!

The 2/3 rule has been a game-changer when getting The 2/3 rule has been a game-changer when getting dressed every day!

The hack is to choose two out of three of the following to put effort into that day — hair, makeup, or outfit. Ex: if your hair and makeup is done, then your outfit is more simple or casual.

I read an etiquette book years ago that talked about this rule and I always come back to it often when getting dressed!
