Shirts are versatile items of clothing that are never out of place whether in the boardroom, on the beach, at dinner, or out dancing. You can never go wrong with a shirt, whether as part of business attire or as a component of a smart or casual ensemble.

However, a key fashion piece in any woman’s wardrobe this season must be the White Shirt. White, as a colour, is fresh and sends a message of sophistication and understated elegance. Jeanie Lanz-Bergin of I Spy Fashion adores the white shirt, describing it as: "the wardrobe equivalent of a blank freshly painted wall - Like a clean, bright backdrop, to accessorize with whatever takes your fancy."

You can never have enough white shirts in your wardrobe. They can be styled in various ways, which makes them great for the office and also on a good pair of jeans. The key is to accessorise; - give your formal pieces a creative and individual edge or add a dash of elegance to your more casual ones. The truth is that you can never go wrong with a well-tailored white shirt.

A white shirt never goes out of season and it is always in fashion, so invest in a few classy cotton shirts to see you through the season.
