Casual shirts
The Nines advises you to match this style with fabrics that are more suitable such as linen, flannel, denim and chambray. You may opt for a less structured collar with rather visible buttons and simple cuffs.
Casual shirt in all its details
The properties of a casual shirt
The Nines offers you many shirts to wear on casual occasions, such as an outing with friends or a walk outside for example. We recommend Italian collar shirts or French collar which are more sober. If you want to modernize your look, opt for a cutaway collar shirt, small collar or American collar (for a more workwear style!). The Tunisian collar shirt with timeless charm is also very pleasant to wear when it's warmer.
Moreover, certain fabrics are more suitable for informal events. The Nines advises you to opt for shirts with soft and slightly textured fabric like Oxford. To bring character to your outfits, wear chambray shirts or raw or stone-washed chambray. Some materials are ideal for a particular season: linen shirts and cotton, very airy, will keep you cool during hot weather while flannel shirts will keep you warm when it's cold outside.
Put aside your cufflinks and opt for single cuffs. The casual shirt is generally worn with visible buttons for a more relaxed look.
Wearing the casual shirt with style
The casual shirt will pair very well with certain outerwear. For a modern and impeccable outfit, accompany your casual shirt with a suit jacket (with a pocket square in similar colors or patterns) or a denim jacket. You can also wrap a sweater around your neck or wear it letting your casual shirt show slightly. When you go out, you can wear a casual shirt under a leather blazer or a trench coat.
The casual shirt is preferably worn outside the pants. Nevertheless, you can tuck it into your pants and wear a belt with a color or pattern that is already present on your outfit (to show that you pay attention to the combination of pieces). Depending on your preferences, opt for chinos, rolled up jeans or pants with or without patterns. For a more chic look, go out with pleated pants! Finally, shorts are a must for the beach with an open casual shirt.
Wear a pair of loafers or derbies for a refined effect. If you like very trendy sneakers, opt for a solid pair to accompany your casual shirt. In summer, head to the sand with a casual shirt and espadrilles! On the other hand, when winter arrives, wear leather or suede boots.
