The classic white dress shirt is important for work or formal occasions because you just can’t go wrong. Ralph Lauren’s offering is made from light cotton with French cuffs and easily morphs into a cool casual look when worn over jeans with the sleeves rolled up. Alternatively, tuck it into a pair of shorts with loafers and drape a cardigan over your shoulders for a more preppy vibe.
