Hello My Loves,
Hope you are all well, busy week. I imagine, like me you’re all balancing big goals with simple joys, like coffee dates, meeting someone new, or just wanting to feel your best—even if you’re just running to the store. The kind of style that keeps up with this pace? That’s what we’re after.
When it comes to versatile style, a good shirt is the unsung hero of any wardrobe. It’s that one piece that can take you from your “I just woke up, don’t talk to me” mornings to late-night drinks, and still feel effortlessly pulled together. A classic shirt can turn up for you like that friend who’s down for anything, whether you need to look polished, feel comfortable, or throw something on for an unexpected adventure.
There are a few things every woman needs in their wardrobe and this is one of them. Unless you’ve been living under a rock, Kwezi has announced their newest piece. A shirt.
Today, I’m showing you how to style that perfect shirt in nine different ways. It’s about making more out of the pieces you already own, learning to love the wardrobe you have, and making it work for wherever life takes you—whether that’s a new job, a first date, or just a much-needed self-care day. So let’s dive in and explore all the ways this one shirt can keep up with your every mood.
1.Contrast Double Denim

What a beautiful cross between coastal and farmhouse chic. Double denim is always a fashion statement, but have you ever considered how different shades of denim may elevate the look. Of course, paired with an oxford shirt, we love how Matilda has folded up the sleeves, it really adds dimension to the look.
2.Paired with a Dress

Whether it's over or under a dress, a dress will always compliment a shirt. The easiest way to dress up your shirt is adding a dress. What an effortless slay!
3.A Casual Lounge Moment

Running out for coffee or catching an early flight, the perfect combination for style and comfort. Hey, it's me. I paired a shirt with some light cotton pants for a daytime short flight and I was ready to leave the plane and go straight out for a shopping spree in the South of France this summer.
4.A Structured Moment

I will never deny a masculine structure. So crisp and elegant. From business meeting to lunch with friends, the epitome of quiet luxury. Button Down for a more relaxed vibe
5.Over an Outfit

A staple over a white tee. The most exciting thing to look at. Aim for an oversized shirt and a chunky gold earring. Just stunning.
6.Belted with a Jean

Oh, Diana. Classic, Timeless and Elegant. If you catch a royal off-duty it will always be in a shirt, belted with a jean. The structure of the shirt combined with the silhouette of a jeans will always be flattering.
7.Skirts should be the size of a belt

Life's short, wear your mini skirt today. I always love a neutral skirt moment with a shirt. Elevate it further with a blazer, or enjoy looking delicate in summer with a skirt and some flip-flops. Oh, and switch out the flip-flops for some heels for a great day to night transition. Thank me later.
8.A Fall Cosy Moment

Stay warm this fall, this cosy look is such a treat. Dig through your wardrobe for your autumn knits, everything cherry, green, brown, grey and navy. Layer your shirt and turn heads for being the most stylish in the room.
9.An Exposed Bra

Oh, look it's me again. Incase you didn't hear me the first time, we are bringing back the exposed bra. Outrageous colours paired with a white shirt, or like the photo, something more subtle. Carrie Bradshaw would be proud. She ran, so we could walk.
Like a cat, your shirt has 9 lives, if not 1,000s. I can't wait to see you style your Kwezi shirts, keep an eye on our socials for the release date! Sign up here
