One Shirt Four Looks: Rag & Bone Excel Shirt

The Excel Shirt from Rag & Bone is one of our favorite shirt this season. This stunning blouse is made from gorgeous silk chiffon with a black inverted pleat and signature milk can buttons. The perfect shirt to wear all year along




We have created four looks using the Excel Shirt for you, whether it's for a day at the office, day to evening, night on town, or brunch on the weekend, Parallel has you covered. 

The Office Look

We wanted to keep the look simple and fresh but still modern so we paired the blouse with a Tuxedo Pant by Nili Lotan to give the shirt a relaxed men's wear inspired look. We kept the jewelry simple with the Swarovski Studs and Menara Bracelet by Grayling. Topped the outfit with these fantastic (so comfortable) Jude Sandal by Rag & Bone and Bodega Tote by Loeffler Randall.

Day to Night/Date Night Look
Take this shirt from day to evening by glitzing it up with a few accessories. Helix Earrings and Crystalline Bracelet by Grayling are prefect pieces to glitz up this shirt. The Regina Pencil Skirt by Rag & Bone is a great transition piece to take this shirt from day to evening by offering a polish yet  still alluring look. A great flat sandal will keep this look from being overtly sexy and that's why we chose Lita Sandal from Loeffler Randall. Lastly we added a fun clutch, the Sequin Clutch by Hoss Intropia.

Night Out on the Town Look

Whether you are attending a gallery opening, cocktail party, or drinks with friends this look is fun and glamorous! We wanted to pair it with a standout necklace to make statement and the Ivy Chocolate Necklace by Grayling is perfect for that, we also added the Grayling's Swarovski Brass Studs. A full skirt is a fun way to play up this look, the Lima Skirt from Rag & Bone is perfect for that. The Allegra Sandal by Loeffler Sandal adds a touch of glamour to the outfit. We had to pair the Grommet Clutch by Hoss Intropia to complete this look. 



The Brunch Look 

In order to relaxed and dress down the shirt we paired it with the Jean Jacket and Dre Jean by Rag & Bone, both pieces are just the right "casualness" for this look. We added a pop color with the Camo Scarf by Rag & Bone such a fun and unique print! Kept the jewelry simple with a pair of Gold Stick Earrings by Sarah Dunn. Finished off this look with a Small Pouch Clutch from Loeffler Randall and Sayre II Espadrille from Rag & Bone.
