In today’s segment of 5 ways to style the white button-down shirt, I’m wearing a piece that I featured last week. I knew this vest was going to be a great purchase because of its versatility & it has yet to disappoint. This look is a little more dressy, and could easily be worn to the office. I wore my faux leather pants to help dress up the look as well as a sleek pair of stilettos.

Layering with a white button-down shirt is the perfect way to add newness into your existing wardrobe. Look for pieces that you wear often and see how you can mix in a button-down. Believe it or not, this entire week of looks was created all around items I already had in my closet. That’s why I strongly encourage purchases that you can wear time and time again. Yes, its important to add on-trend items, but this should only account for 20% of your closet. The rest should be versatile enough to mix with everything else.
