Refresh Your White Button-Down

For texture play, team your white shirt with a boxy suede jacket over leather trousers in a tonal palette.

An A-line skirt is polished for work while asymmetric low-heeled mules, chunky hoops and an embossed bucket bag are directional accents.

For an elegant take on athleisure, pair a crisp button-down with cropped track pants and crisscross mules. A sleek bag and earrings are a smart finish.
