Mid-range pick. An oversized cut feels relaxed and still looks put together. Wear it over a fitted tee and straight jeans for an easy outfit.

Cardigans For Women
Tops You Reach For Every Week
A crisp button up works at the office, at church, and on the weekend. Wear it tucked into trousers, or open over a white tee. One shirt gives you three different outfits.
The Deep End - Cotton Long Sleeve Shirt
A white tee is the base of almost every outfit. Choose a soft cotton that is thick enough to wear alone. Layer it under a blazer, tuck it into a skirt, or wear it with denim.
White Crew Neck T-Shirt
A striped tee adds interest without adding another color. Wear it with jeans, under a blazer, or with a skirt.

A black dress is one decision made for you. Dress it up with a blazer, or down with a denim jacket and flats. Choose a cut you can sit, bend, and move in.
