1. Cropped Length - This cute crop adds length to your legs, depending on the crop, they can be paired with pants, your go-to casual denim or tailored shorts. If it comes in studier fabrics, you can also wear it as an open overlay over a dress or skirt. The casual flare and ease of the length will have you go for it more than a few times.
2. The Classic Kind - Mastering the art of classic shirts whether it’s a crisp white or a banker blue can be tricky with the myriad of options. You must always however look for shirts that promise comfort - find one that is professional, polished but cozy and of course utilitarian with functionality at its core. We’d recommend our classics here.
3. Comfy & Oversized - Oversized fit makes it versatile for layering and a wear-with-everything piece that can easily be dressed up or down and layered in innumerable ways. You could just as easily wear one under a V-neck knit or wool suit separately as you could under a crewneck for an elevated, meeting-ready look. Oversized silhouettes always look good paired with narrow bottoms - pencil skirts, tapered pants, skinny trousers.
4. Romantic Ruffles - Opt for these when you want to feel a little demure. We love the dainty ruffles along the collar and placket for that extra femininity. Pair them with heels, floral accessories and delicate jewelry. Browse Tora Shirts in Blue, Yellow, Red and Green.
5. Wrap-Around Shirts - Wrap shirts add structure but not completely. This silhouette cinches at the waist hugging you at all the right places. They won’t keep you limited to a specific size either, it’s easy to accommodate a couple of sizes up or down with this one.
