There's something just so luxurious about a silk shirt. It's elegant, soft, flattering, warm and long-lasting and that's why investing in one can prove a valuable wardrobe purchase. Easy to slip on and so comfortable to wear, a silk shirt will also add some much-needed polish to all your basics and can be styled in countless ways for a whole range of occasions.
For the office, you can pair a classic cream or black silk shirt with a suit for important meetings or pair with a pencil skirt, tights, blazer and your go-to ankle boots. For date night, you can wear a pretty patterned version with leather trousers or your go-to tailored trousers and for days when you want to look put-together but not too smart, you can wear under a day dress, with jeans or dungarees. A silk shirt will elevate any material, give tailoring a glamorous edge and give any of your existing pieces a new lease of life.
