I fell in love with chambray a few years ago, and my Old Navy Classic Chambray Shirt has become one of the things I wear all the time. Since my brain is still in vacation mode from my recent trip to Georgia, here’s a look at 4 ways to style a chambray shirt…
1. Chambray Shirt + Leggings
Nothing is simpler than throwing a button down over leggings. When it comes to wearing leggings as pants, my rule of thumb is to keep the bum covered and to make sure the leggings are not see-through. (Outfit details here.)
2. Chambray Shirt + Maxi Dress
For another easy look, layer a button down over a maxi dress and tie the shirt at the waist. The look is a little bit 90’s and is a trendy way to layer for cool, summer days. (Outfit details here.)
3. Chambray Shirt + Cardigan + Floral Jeans
Another great look for cooler days is the classic cardigan and button down combo. Floral jeans make a fun statement without going over the top. (Outfit details here.)
4. Chambray + Blue Jeans
Don’t overlook chambray paired with denim. A street style favorite, this combo is an easy way to stay on trend without having to buy anything new. (Outfit details here.)

Cute looks! Chambray + denim is one of my fave pairings!
These are all really cute, and I totally agree with your rules on wearing tights as pants! 🙂

What a versatile item. It looks great in all of these ensembles.
So CUTE!!!! I just got a chambray shirt so I’m going to have to copy some of these looks! <3
So cute! I love all the looks. 🙂
Great ideas! I especially like your headscarf/turban in the final snap. Another fun way with a chambray shirt is to layer it under a fitted vest – if you opt for suede (real or faux), you get an instant boho vibe to boot.
Have a fantastic weekend!

So many cute outfits here! I do the chambray + denim look often. I just got a longer denim shirt and I need to try the denim + leggings. I never thought about wearing one with a maxi!

Great styling ideas
4 great looks! I love the one with the floral denim! Those pants are so cute!
I’m not normally a chambray with jeans kind of a girl but it really works here! Maybe its the different tones of blue? Anyway, loving all of the outfits.
Look # 2 is so cute – I love the way chambray looks paired with a maxi dress or skirt!

Great round up of options. Chambray is the ultimate closet chameleon.

Ahh, I love it! And your hate is amazing. I bet you get people complimenting it wherever you go!
I have to get a chambray shirt! This fall, definitely.
With the rain boots…so darn cute!
Cute looks! I love my chambray shirt…it goes with everything 🙂
The chambray shirt has really grown in popularity to become a wardrobe staple, huh? I love the bleached wash of yours. I had one, but the buttons always came undone and gaped open, so I’m on the hunt for another one. This is motivation to find one stat so I can try recreating some of these looks. I love it layered over the striped maxi. The muted hues of the dress and shirt really let the red purse pop!
