Two of my favourite clothing items, white shirt & skirt combined together to create a flirty outfit. I chose a mini skirt for this look, but you can go for a midi skirt, a knee length skirt or even a leather skirt. Just add a nice pair of heels, some accessories and a handbag to get a super cute lunch date outfit that’ll leave your partner speechless.

Under a Slip Dress

If you ask me, what are the essentials for an elegant outfit; I would say a white shirt and a slip dress. Wear your slip dress over your white shirt to get a stylish outfit that’ll make you the fashion queen among your girlfriends. You can either complete your look with heels, like I did or you can go for white sneakers for a chill vibe.

With Baggy Jeans & Crop Top

If you are someone who follow trends, then you would know that baggy jeans are trending and taking over the fashion world by storm. So, why not pair them with the most versatile item, a white shirt to get an easy-breezy look. Wear your baggy jeans with a crop top and tie a white shirt on top. To complete your look add sneakers and you are ready.

This look is ideal for wearing to small ceremonies. All you have to do is add a golden necklace, a matching dupatta, a gorgeous pair of juttis and ta da.

With a Statement Dupatta & Belt

When it comes to styling your white shirt into ethnic ways, a nice statement dupatta can go a long way. Pick out your favourite dupatta, put it over your simple white shirt & denim outfit like I did and add a belt on top to keep it in place. You can also go for a simple dupatta if you like. Add some ethnic jewellery and footwear to complete your look and you are all set.

Easy-breezy and perfect for a day out, this is what this next look is. Pair your bright coloured or solid ethnic palazzo with your white shirt to get a relaxed look in minutes. You can wear to go shopping or a casual day out in the park. Complete your look with a statement chunky silver necklace and an ethnic sling bag and you are ready.

With an Ethnic Skirt

Your flowy ethnic skirt is excellent to give an ethnic twist to your white shirt and believe me it looks great. Wear your favourite ethnic skirt with a white shirt, add a matching dupatta and there you have it, a perfect outfit for small wedding functions, like mehendi. I chose simple jewellery for this look, but you can go for heavier pieces and take it up a notch.

With an Ethnic Jacket

What’s better than an ethnic jacket to add an Indian touch to your white shirt? Amp up your look instantly by adding a long ethnic jacket over your basic white shirt and blue denims. You can wear this outfit to lunch with your girlfriends. To complete your look, add some silver jewellery, a nice pair of heels and a handbag.

These are the ways in which I give an ethnic twist to my white shirt. I hope you like the looks and try them next time you are looking for some Indo-western outfit inspiration.
