A couple weeks ago I went to an event at Madewell in Union Square and tried on my first chambray top. After seeing everyone and their mother wearing them on all my favorite fashion blogs, I thought it would be love at first glance-in-the-mirror. But I gotta tell you, I wasn’t crazy about it after trying it on. The ones at Madewell are pretty (yeah, pretty expensive *ba dum bum chh*), but they were just too stiff and structured for my taste. I’d actually probably prefer a cheaper, thinner version with a little more give. And so, I’m still on the lookout for a chambray top that I like. Above, how I’d wear it. If you’re wearing chambray this season, what are you pairing it with?

I just recently jumped on the chambray bandwagon myself! May I suggest Old Navy for an affordable button down.
This is how I wore it:https://chicvic.com/2013/05/17/chic-chambray/
