Getting your Trinity Audio player ready…

There’s something about the summertime that brings out the lazy dresser in us. Where fall and winter dressing often calls for intricate layering fashion lovers are known to enjoy getting crafty with, the warmer weather not only declares that style of dress obsolete — we’d also just rather not deal with it, instead looking to slip into the easiest ensembles we can find. Summer sundresses are of course one way to go, but another option that feels a bit more elevated and polished, but with equally low amounts of effort are button down tops. 

You may have heard it before, but having a button down top in your wardrobe roundup is essential. Having an assortment of various colors, prints and textures is even better. Whether it’s an all white button down, one complete with a geometric print, or one made with enticing fabrics such as plisse, button down tops are that sure cute piece to be thrown on with anything — jeans, trousers, a mini skirt, over a bikini. Ahead, see 10 of the chicest styles online right now, and get ready for your best and easiest dressed summer yet.
