There’s something about a crisp, asymmetrical white shirt that instantly elevates an outfit. It feels modern, a little unexpected, but still effortlessly clean. I paired mine with tailored grey suit trousers for a look that leans into sharp structure without feeling too formal.

To bring in a bit of contrast, I added a black and gold belt from Jigsaw. The gold T-lock clasp gives just the right amount of polish without overpowering the outfit. Accessories were kept bold but minimal: my go-to black large Hudson bag from DeMellier, which fits everything as always, and oversized black cat-eye sunglasses from Saint Laurent for a slightly dramatic finish.

It’s one of those looks that works just as well for a day in the city as it does for a casual meeting. Clean lines, neutral tones, and a few standout details.

For reference, I’m 5’4” and typically wear a UK size 6.
