When I was younger, I envied those blessed with height - the ones that can take a loose fitting shirt and wear it with such cool, collected nonchalance like they just got out of bed and didn't have a care in the world.
I tried doing that and all I end up looking is smaller and shorter. As I grew older, I realized that height doesn't do much for me, it's not something I hold in any regard. What I envied back then was the ability to look so effortless.
I still don't have that ability but I know what works for me and my body type and I try very hard. It helps a lot of times if what you're wearing gives the vibe of nonchalance and breezy outlook. Like this Summer friendly piece.
This henley-style shirt has all the trappings of a Summer essential. I love the blue colored middle panel and how it contrasts and lends an air of lightness that reminds of me cool Summer nights and days on a yacht.
The henley-style button placket is a throwback to the casualness of Summer and the desire to wear as little as possible. This is effortless - just throw it on, roll up the sleeves, slap SPF on and you're good to go.
