*In this late-night feature – which will run Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday of each week – I’ll gather up three fun items that are currently on sale online and share them with you! I would LOVE suggestions: Stylish wide-width pumps? Classic v-necked sweaters? Chandelier earrings? Petite dress slacks? What would you like to see featured?*
Katie requested a few picks for chambray button-front shirts, so here we go:
Carhartt Girl Chambray Shirt – was $50, now $39.99
I generally prefer unadorned versions of classics, but I actually love the tiny little ruffle on this shirt’s placket. Fun, playful, and relatively unobtrusive. This version is 100% acrylic and is relatively short in the torso, which makes it a good bet for pairings with skirts. Available in sizes S – XL.
Liz Claiborne New York Long Sleeve Roll-Tab Chambray Shirt – was $36, now $31.38
A 100% cotton version that comes in three shades of blue as well as yellow, orange, and pink, this roll-tab sleeve version can be cuffed for summer wear or worn long when the weather turns cold. Available in sizes XS – 3X (sold out in 2X). Availability varies by color.
Orvis Double-collar Wrinkle-free Shirt – was $79, now $49
Ahhh, those magic words: Wrinkle free. And the sharp-pointed double collar on this shirt means it will dress up beautifully, should you choose to do a fancy-casual ensemble. Available in sizes 6 – 20 in this denim color, varied sizes in purple, yellow, and pink. 100% cotton.
Other not-currently-on-sale resources for chambray button-front shirts:

love. any suggestions for chambray button downs that will nicely fit the large-of-boob? thanks sally!
Hmm, my go-tos are Carissa Rose and Pepperberry. Neither has chambray, though Pepperberry has a denim TUNIC: http://www.bravissimo.com/pepperberry/products/tops/shirts-and-blouses/washed-denim-tunic/denim/fd08dn/?show=16&sort=1&level=1 This company looks intriguing, too, but no chambray: https://www.rebeccaanddrew.com/store/shop/item.asp?itemid=798 I’ll keep my eyes peeled.
Anyone else know of good chambray shirts for women with large busts?
i think amazon goofed on the fabric content of the first shirt. if u click the “more info” it also describes the top as having a fair-isle pattern. oops.
here u go!
Ruffle detail on the front placket adds the right touch to the Carhartt Country Girl Chambray Shirt. A comfortable choice, it’s made of 100% cotton chambray in a 4.5-ounce weight. The button front features Carhartt logo buttons, and the left-chest pocket adds practicality. *4.5-ounce, 100% cotton chambray *Button front with Carhartt logo buttons *Ruffle detail at placket *Left-chest pocket
sal, sadly I don’t really care for any of these (too frilly, wrong shade)although I have been DYING for a chambray shirt for at least a year. J. Crew has a great one but I don’t really want to pay $90 for it. Will have to check eBay or something I guess.
Thanks Sal!
