A crisp collar beneath olive knit
The ivory collar and cuff add definition around a simple olive knit. Navy chinos and flat loafers make a restrained teaching, study or office outfit.
The whole combination
- Ivory cotton shirt
- Olive fine-knit crew neck
- Navy straight chinos
- Black flat loafers
Check it on you
Check that the shirt tail does not bunch under the knit. If the collar feels crowded, let it sit naturally or omit the shirt layer.
Make it work with what you own
Use a soft collar shirt or a crew-neck base. The colour relationship still works when the shirt is worn separately on a warmer day.
Before you leave: test reaching, sitting and walking. Follow your own garment care labels. Weather suitability depends on the actual clothes and conditions; this look has no warmth or waterproof rating.
