HOW TO STYLE: THE RUGBY SHIRT

The trending item your wardrobe needs this spring? The rugby shirt. Style experts have moved the oversized top synonymous with the sport into the sartorial world – and when they’re this easy to style, we can see why. If tackling the rugby shirt is new territory for you, don't worry because we've put together three different ways to copy and paste it into your own rotation.

#1: WITH SHORTS

Who said you can’t dress up a casual staple like the rugby shirt? Wear yours buttoned up to the top alongside relaxed tailoring in the form of these ASOS DESIGN mid-length shorts, kitten heels and a mini bag for a brunch-ready look. Heading off on a colder day? Make like Hailey Bieber by tossing on a trench or faux-fur coat for extra style points. Now this is a try.

#2: WITH JEANS

Denim + a rugby shirt is a duo as old as time, and for good reason. Team a neutral shirt with statement barrel-leg jeans, work boots like Timberlands and some household logos for an off-duty look you can wear anywhere. We’re particularly obsessed with the oversized shapes and masculine cuts throughout this ensemble – very city-ready.
