Today, we’ve got a timeless button-up that you can wear into the summer. Plus:
The best button-up for warm days |
 |
| Michael Murtaugh/NYT Wirecutter; prop styling by Elizabeth Serwin |
A button-up shirt might not be the first thing you think to reach for on a hot, sunny day. But after testing 19 different versions through the heat of summer, we think this oversized cotton poplin number would look and feel great any time of year.
It’s a big ol’ shirt: light, crisp, and breathable, with a slightly silky feel to it. Plus, its boxy cut can be styled in a variety of ways — as an effortless swim coverup on the beach, partially buttoned with comfy pants for travel days, or over a silky dress for the office.
It looks far more expensive than it actually is→

Plus: 7 pairs of white jeans we love |

| Connie Park/NYT Wirecutter |
The best jeans should fit well and feel comfortable — and withstand frequent washes. The latter is especially important when choosing a pair of white jeans, which are not particularly forgiving when it comes to stains and spills. Our style experts have found seven excellent pairs that look fabulous, and should last for many summers ahead.
Including a splurge-worthy wide leg and a gorgeous flowy option→
