Read any list of the “must-have” pieces every woman should have in her wardrobe and you’ll always find the white button-down shirt near the top.
But until recently, I never owned one.
The reason for this is two-fold.
First, I have young children. Wearing a crisp, white shirt is akin to wearing a sandwich board that screams, “Please, use me as your human hand towel for the day.”
Secondly, I’ve always considered buying a white shirt (and wearing one, for that matter), well…kind of boring. It’s so much more fun to buy a trendy peasant top or a spring sweater in a candy-colored hue. White shirt? Dull in comparison.
But a couple weeks ago, I finally picked one up. (read more at Chic Critique)

What a model you are!!! :) I love my crisp white shirt, although mine isn't a button-down. It had a little fancy twist where it actually zipped up the side, but it was still a blouse with some stretch to it. OK, that sounds lame. but it's cool, I swear! :)
And what's this about the most stylish person you know -- who is Jane?!? What about your old friend Lori?!?!? She has a REALLY cool Bon Jovi shirt that rocks the earth!
Okay Michelle, listen. Try one of the iron-less shirts from either Talbots or Lands End. They wash well and stains just roll off practically. How about change the buttons to a color for fun? Just try it, on the days you know you are going to grocery shop or have a meeting.
