Strut your personal style with The Boyfriend Shirt

I thought this was a fun experiment with style that I didn’t want to pass up. And, why not play model for a day?!

The plan: Take one menswear shirt and have a group of fashion writers rock The Boyfriend Shirt with their own personal style! One simple shirt, so many different ways. Well, make that S.E.W., as this shirt is very special…

The Boyfriend Shirt is reminiscent of your father, boyfriend's or husband’s work shirt, but it fits your curves!

Created by celebrity style expert, Jess Zaino and Scott Evan Wasserberger of the downtown New York menswear boutique S.E.W. (yes, those are Scott’s initials), The Boyfriend Shirt for SEW has all the classy guy bells and whistles that appeal to a woman who appreciates custom fit and the finest Dormeuil, Loro Piana, and Thomas Mason fabrics typically reserved for only the best in custom menswear.

You have seen this classic-with-a-sexy-punch shirt on the gorgeous backs of celebs like Jessica Biel, Reese Witherspoon, and SI swimsuit model Jessica Hart. Now you can check it out on someone a bit closer to your reality!

Each one of us from TheFashionSpot.com, ANewMode.com, BettyConfidential.com, DelainaDixon.com, Facebook.com blogger, the co-designer of The Boyfriend Shirt, Jess Zaino, and moi from FocusOnStyle.com (pictured, left) had the chance to show off some personal style and wear the same shirt in a different way– it goes to show how versatile The Boyfriend Shirt really is!

You’ve seen us. You’ve seen them. Don’t you think that you should put The Boyfriend Shirt in your wardrobe? Get Inspired!
