(???)) and the notch-neck (or isn't this one of those) only that has buttons down to hem (great use for layering, indeed)&nbsp; AND is also&nbsp; hi-low!!&nbsp; Great outfit -your plain is all a crispy plain!:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/simple-plain-minimal-with-gap-gauze-sihirt/page/2#post-2192227 Tue, 04 May 2021 06:14:23 +0000 Bijou 2192227@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz, you look stunning in white, I am sure this inspired Angie’s white post today. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/simple-plain-minimal-with-gap-gauze-sihirt/page/2#post-2192137 Mon, 03 May 2021 22:02:10 +0000 Anonymous 2192137@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great top!

This was mine.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/simple-plain-minimal-with-gap-gauze-sihirt/page/2#post-2191800 Sun, 02 May 2021 15:06:57 +0000 Angie 2191800@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Typo of "overshot" day. WHAT??? Sorry can't change it :(</p> <p><b>Suz,</b> M&amp;S does great classic solid linen shirts.

It was really nice but didn’t play well with my boobs. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/simple-plain-minimal-with-gap-gauze-sihirt#post-2191778 Sun, 02 May 2021 12:36:08 +0000 Brooklyn 2191778@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The best neckline! And hard to find. Love the fabric too. We would call it cheesecloth. Years ago I had some short sleeve versions of this type of shirt, also from GAP (when they had a retail presence here). I wore them to shreds over the course of 2 or 3 summers. I still miss them. Enjoy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/simple-plain-minimal-with-gap-gauze-sihirt#post-2191709 Sun, 02 May 2021 01:40:57 +0000 Jaime 2191709@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well I had a hard time dragging my eyes away from your beautifully cut pixie. But I do love the shirt as well, I recently found something similar but longer that will be my summer beach coverup I think. Unless I am too inspired by your pictures to save it for the beach! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/simple-plain-minimal-with-gap-gauze-sihirt#post-2191562 Sat, 01 May 2021 14:29:52 +0000 RoseandJoan 2191562@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I very much like this outfit Sus, the soft texture of the shirt provides a great contrast to the structural trousers.</p> <p>May I ask about the adjective plain? I feel I have missed something as it used quite frequently on the forum and I'm unsure how to interpret it, does it refer to solid colour rather than patterned or a simple silhouette? Is it dressing with a minimal number of pieces or something else entirely? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/simple-plain-minimal-with-gap-gauze-sihirt#post-2191560 Sat, 01 May 2021 14:24:54 +0000 kkards 2191560@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>FAB!

A perfect shirt for spring, or even tossed over a swimsuit at the beach.&nbsp; The texture of the fabric might be good for travel, too (sigh).&nbsp; But wait - can we talk about your AMAZING haircut?!?!? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/simple-plain-minimal-with-gap-gauze-sihirt#post-2191556 Sat, 01 May 2021 14:20:56 +0000 catherine 2191556@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look lovely in those.

Perfect! Cotton gauze is such a summery fabric; I always try to find silk-cotton blends too, but they are few and far between. I admire that Loft shirt you have too--I can see why you wouldn't want to get rid of it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/simple-plain-minimal-with-gap-gauze-sihirt#post-2191365 Fri, 30 Apr 2021 18:20:22 +0000 JAileen 2191365@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like your outfit A LOT. &nbsp;I ordered a pair of balloon pants the other day. &nbsp;We’ll see how it goes. &nbsp;I have to laugh about buying a white top for gardening. &nbsp;You must have Angie’s superpower. &nbsp;:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/simple-plain-minimal-with-gap-gauze-sihirt#post-2191356 Fri, 30 Apr 2021 17:47:32 +0000 Minaminu 2191356@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>what a stylish gardener!

I was so tempted just by the depth of the colour and the fabric alone . I managed to walk away </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/simple-plain-minimal-with-gap-gauze-sihirt#post-2191351 Fri, 30 Apr 2021 17:33:33 +0000 Suz 2191351@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, all!&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Irina,</b> when I lived in Ontario I rarely wore long sleeve button up shirts, even though it is a great style for me (easy to fit on me and tends to suit me) mainly because they were too hot for my summer climate and in cooler temps I like knitwear. Now I wear many more of these shirts and so feel I can justify more purchases. Until I moved out here, I had not bought a long sleeved shirt in years.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Katerina, Smittie</b> -- yes, this neckline is one of my absolute favourites -- it's not a Mandarin, exactly (that comes higher on the neck. It's really a collarless button front shirt. Like those 19th C men's shirts where the collars were interchangeable -- you'd button the collar and cuffs to the shirt. :)&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Angie,</b> I LOVE your bright shirts. I was really hoping to get the Gap linen shirt in fuchsia but they were out of it in my size. I might keep checking back. :)&nbsp; And thank you for the compliment. I really like white with the silver hair, too.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Synne</b>, not seersucker but multiple layers of cotton gauze. Seersucker would probably be cooler, but this has its uses in my not-super-hot climate.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Lisa,</b> I was actually hoping for a more gauzy-gauze when I ordered it -- I have an old one from Loft that I adore and can't get rid of -- it just works so well on me. (Weirdly, this cheap item has now lasted me for 6 hard wearing summers, going on 7 now...). Anyway, it's super thin gauze and is the coolest thing I own, but with a bit of a sleeve so not too exposing...I love it.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Janet,</b> I was tempted by the linen one too but they didn't have my size in the colour I wanted. Maybe it is just as well from your report!&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Jenn</b>, thanks -- I love the balloon jeans for a change, too.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/simple-plain-minimal-with-gap-gauze-sihirt#post-2191331 Fri, 30 Apr 2021 16:54:35 +0000 Irina 2191331@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks beautiful on you, Suz!<br />I would be on Gap site hunting this shirt right away but had to remind myself that I have a number of white, long sleeve shirts and my SS shopping is done </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/simple-plain-minimal-with-gap-gauze-sihirt#post-2191330 Fri, 30 Apr 2021 16:54:22 +0000 Katerina 2191330@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks great!

You look great in this. Beautiful texture on the cotton, is that seersucker? YLF! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/simple-plain-minimal-with-gap-gauze-sihirt#post-2191320 Fri, 30 Apr 2021 16:38:29 +0000 Janet 2191320@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, that looks great!</p> <p>I tried on a linen white popover with some cute black and white windowpane pants and the top was not bad but didn’t wow me (on me) — had to size down to a S but then the fit in the chest felt just a little off. The pants, well, sigh. Not totally bad but they gave me polterwang because of the high rise. And they were a bit too warm to be summer pants for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/simple-plain-minimal-with-gap-gauze-sihirt#post-2191315 Fri, 30 Apr 2021 16:35:17 +0000 kellygirl 2191315@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love cotton gauze and the neckline on this is gorgeous for you.

Very flattering . I have a dress from this collection on order but have lowered my expectations somewhat after seeing parts of this grouping in the store the other day . I’m not jumping up and down about the fabric for me ( just not quite my preference ) or the colour I’ve picked ( the soft green ) for that matter - the whole experiment may be a return . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/simple-plain-minimal-with-gap-gauze-sihirt#post-2191282 Fri, 30 Apr 2021 15:59:03 +0000 Jenn 2191282@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That looks like a great lightweight top for summer, and I really love the balloon jeans! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/simple-plain-minimal-with-gap-gauze-sihirt#post-2191279 Fri, 30 Apr 2021 15:57:44 +0000 Angie 2191279@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My version of this shirt is the classic long sleeve linen button down. I wear them &nbsp;big. Tuck or semi-tuck. Perfect for a overshot day. Here are mine:&nbsp; </p>
