I simply couldn’t resist trying this new sexy gingham, and since it’s the season to bare shoulders, I found a beautiful strapless gingham top. The top, which is on sale for $24, gives the button-up shirt a whole new meaning. It completely opens in the front with buttons. It has pleats. It’s stretchy. It has a big self-tie belt that I have plans to work into other looks.

The first time I wore the top, I paired it with white ankle pants. By the way, I’ve been searching for a pair of white pants that aren’t see-through and don’t crease all over for a long time. This Loft pair is THE ONE.

I  initially tried on the gingham top with my black, wide-leg, linen pants, and the silhouettes looked great together. I think the top will pair well with my denim culottes too. I love that I’ll have many styling options with this little belted top.

Sizing? I’m wearing the top in a size 4
