12 Best White Shirts for Summer

You know it. You love it. You’re probably wearing it right now, or at least you wish you were! The perfect white summer shirt. You would think a staple such as a white cotton shirt would be a breeze to track down, but in my experience it’s quite challenging. Is the fabric breathable? Is it see through? Does the cut flatter the arms? So many questions. Yes, we are all loyal to our go-to brands, but it seems styles are always changing and every 2-3 years we are right back to searching anew! I can’t help with that, but I can tell you that it’s worth the search in the end. To find a flattering, comfortable shirt that goes from lounging on a Saturday afternoon to a midweek lunch with friends, well that’s just bliss. Hope you find yours as well!
