Can you have too many white shirts ?
Submitted by Off the Cuff Style
This is another version of the
Brensan “Sew Simple Shirt”this time with long sleeves, from a very soft, almost gauze-like novelty cotton fabric. The sleeves were made exactly per the pattern specifications, and are wide enough at the hemline to be able to roll up to elbow length. I plan to wear this blouse open over a white tank top, with jeans and white strappy sandals…for a breezy casual look.
I have yet another shirt cut from this pattern, a long sleeve version with sleeve cuffs from a beautiful Swiss cotton shirting. Then I will tear myself away from this pattern and move on to other things. Next up are 2 tailored linen jackets among the many sewing projects I have planned for June.
SEWING NOTES: I did make changes to this version of this blouse: I lengthened the collar by about 1/2″ and did not sew the darts. Interfaced with ProSheer Elegance Fusible Interfacing from Fashion Sewing Supply~. Buttons from Fashion Sewing Supply~.

I agree with you. White shirt is a universal thing. May be it is the only thing that suits to everybody.
