Let\u2019s be honest: T-shirt dresses<\/a> aren’t exactly the most exciting item. With a shape borrowed from the most basic item in our wardrobes, the T-shirt dress isn\u2019t known for its wow factor. But what it lacks in drama it more than makes up for in versatility. A true blank canvas, the T-shirt dress is one of the most adaptable, not to mention, comfortable, pieces in my capsule wardrobe<\/a>\u2014and when styled right, it can look surprisingly polished. Take Rosie Huntington-Whiteley’s latest look.<\/p>\n

While reaching for trainers<\/a> is my default option, recently I spotted Rosie Huntington-Whiteley<\/a> opting for a very chic T-shirt dress formula that I’ve come to rely on ever since. Weaving white sandals and a suede bag into her look, I don’t think I’d ever seen a T-shirt dress look so elegant.<\/p>\n

Wearing a floor-sweeping T-shirt dress with a pretty boucl\u00e9 texture, Huntington-Whiteley’s<\/a> outfit started out simple, but her accessory choices quickly elevated it. White sandals<\/a> gave it instant glossy appeal, while her slouchy suede bag<\/a>, in a washed shade of khaki, ensuring it looks high end at every turn. The softened structure and textured finish add depth to her ensemble. It felt effortless, but elevated\u2014as the model’s best outfits always do.<\/p>\n
