Martha Stewart, Reese Witherspoon and other celebs are rocking this fall trend
Add a denim or chambray shirt to your closet this fall.
Other than a plain white T-shirt, there are very few do-it-all neutral fashion pieces you can wear to the office, out to dinner, to lounge at home, run errands — you get the idea That said, if you're looking for something that's just a tad more elevated than your trusty crewneck but just as versatile, try a denim or chambray shirt. Martha Stewart, Reese Witherspoon and other stylish celebs have been seen sporting the classic look, and it's an easy one to wear this fall.
You can wear a blue button-down with pretty much anything — they're easy to pair with trousers or leggings. Some celebs like Mindy Kaling have even been pairing theirs with jeans for a denim-on-denim look. Yes, the Canadian tuxedo is back this season!

But there are a couple of versions of this style: You can opt for a real denim shirt or a chambray shirt. Denim is made with cotton, but thicker, like jeans, so these shirts will have a little more structure and weight to them. Chambray is also made with cotton, but its weave is different and gives it a lighter, often softer feel.
Take a look below at both denim and chambray styles we found at Amazon if you're ready to add one to your closet. Stick with a traditional blue color or if you want, you can opt for black, white or even pink chambray styles.
Look to the inventor of blue jeans for this Western-style button down. It comes in over 10 shades of blue, black, white and even pink denim. What give it its Western vibes is the pearl snaps, pointed pocket flaps and yolk stitching over the shoulders.
You can wear this denim shacket two ways — as a shirt on its own or as a jacket layered over your favorite T-shirt. (It's a shacket! Get it?) It's Amazon's No. 1 selling women's denim jacket right now and it comes in a wide range of denim shades, with some even distressed for a more worn-in look. It's a little longer, so it will probably cover your bum, making it especially legging-friendly.
Here's another oversized option you could wear tucked in or not. It features one big pocket on the left side of the chest and white buttons. But shoppers especially love how soft and comfy it is — it's 100% cotton and not too thick, so it has some flow to it.
This oversized chambray short-sleeve top will be your new comfy go-to. You can wear it with jeans (yes, denim on denim!) or with trousers, leggings or skirts. It has wide cuffed sleeves, two pockets on the chest and also comes in a range of denim shades.
If you like the Western style, this chambray denim shirt is another great pick. The 100% cotton top comes in 18 colors with a light brushing detail for added softness. Plus, it has a relaxed fit that's long enough to tuck in if you want to.
