The trendiest top of Summer 2017 was, hands down, the deconstructed white blouse [1]. We shopped so many different iterations, from a convertible borrow-from-the-boys button-down [2] to backless designs and ones with exaggerated bow sleeves. So many of us have more than one of these statement shirts, it would be a shame to pack them away just because it's Fall.
While you might not be able to wear yours with cutoffs or a breezy skirt and espadrilles once the weather turns, there are a handful of ways to style this piece [3] and stay warm. With a few more layers involved and some outfit inspiration below, you'll continue to breathe life into your button-down until Winter. Care to add a few more lightweight silhouettes to your rotation? That's good, because we also curated a short list of our favorite options ahead.
