THE ONE SHIRT WE ALL NEED

. THE SHIRT EVERY WOMAN NEEDS – THE OVERSIZED SHIRT DRESS .

I’m constantly pinning images of model like goddesses, with tanned limbs and off duty (read: perfect) hair … dressed in nothing but their boyfriends shirt. Styled so impeccably that to walk out in public would garner street style snaps, opposed to concerned looks from neighbours questioning your mental stability for parading the streets near naked. It’s one of those looks that in photos, just looks so on point, but in reality walking outside in an XXL white shirt, trying to look chic, just doesn’t seem to quite have the same affect. I’m not alone in this right? Well fear not, i’ve discovered a ready made (‘real life worthy’) version of the ever aspirational look … this oversized Zara striped shirt dress. It delivers all the effortless boyfriend chic for you.

Naturally when i’m not in my cut offs (did you catch my photo diary here), then i’ve been throwing on this little shirt dress for sea view lunches, or warm evening dinners. It’s comfy, it’s chic, it’s effortless and it’s easy. it’s everything you want in your holiday wardrobe, and pulls off that air of ‘i’ve just thrown on my boyfriends shirt, yet still look fecking impeccable’ look quite well I think (see pinterest for reference). So for those of us who aspire to those ever unachievable looks, fear not, Zara has it sorted for you (as always, I might add).

Are you too guilty of pinning those ‘perfect’ off duty oversized shirt dress looks on Pinterest too? PS don’t forget to follow me on instagram to keep up with my holiday looks, travels & adventures.
