Chambray Never Goes Out of Style | Fashion Over 50

By Pam Greer 8 Comments

A comfortable outfit of the day featuring a Velvet Heart Chambray shirt, J. Jill leggings, and Nine West Boots.  Post may contain affiliate links. 

Chambray Shirt, J. Jill Leggings and Nine West Boots

My love affair with chambray began as a teenager in the 1970’s.  Back then we called them work shirts.  I had a favorite one that I literally wore until it was threadbare.  If I had enough foresight (and time), I would have tried to find a photo of me in mine.  It was big and loose and I wore it year round.  Like jeans, chambray shirts seem seasonless.  This one, from Velvet Heart is my new favorite!    It is my favorite work shirt updated and even better!

I love that it is nice and long in the back.  Whenever I am doing photoshoots, I need a shirt that is long in the back so that when I bend over or squat down to take photos, I’m not showing any skin.  It’s also soft and drapey and oh-so-comfortable!

Nine West Boots #fabfound

I found it at Marshall’s at the same time I found these Nine West Women’s Cromie Riding Boot!  I love the combination of black and brown on one boot!  I paired the shirt and boots with my favorite comfortable J. Jill Riding Pants Leggings, for a casual and comfortable weekend look.

    Chambray shirts really are so timeless! I have a few but don’t wear them much since they are a bit too casual for my office but I love how it goes with everything.

    Thank you for joining TBT Fashion link up and hope to see you next week.
