What’s a fundamental piece of clothing that has to be in everyone’s wardrobe? A shirt of course. One simply can’t have a complete wardrobe without a casual shirt residing in it. So, without further ado, here are 5 of the best casual shirts that you need in your wardrobe:

1. Short-sleeved shirt

There’s no doubt that long-sleeved shirt for men are a piece of clothing in everyone’s wardrobe. However, when was the last time you wore a short-sleeved one? Whilst long-sleeved shirts may offer more comfort and style than short-sleeved shirts, don’t underestimate the latter.

They’re exactly the laid-back yet sleek style that’s cool and stylish for summer. Buttoned up and buttoned down, either way, is great for a casual look that doesn’t require any rolling up of the sleeves.

1. Printed shirt

Let’s be honest - most shirts are plain. Monochrome colors with a few maybe little details here and there, but actual printed shirts with cooler designs? You should definitely have at least one of these in your wardrobe.

Don’t shy away from floral designs or abstract patterns - these are the shirts that you may only wear now and then (or wear more often if you like), but at least they enliven your wardrobe. Casual yet fashionable enough for that party or night out.

1. Preppy rugby shirt

What’s on trend nowadays are rugby shirts - they’re preppy and casual, and a piece that deserves a spot in your wardrobe. Since the resurgence of the preppy look, rugby shirts are becoming a staple in both menswear and womenswear. That classic striped look can be worn both casually inside the house and even when outside running errands or going out.

Loose fitting and extremely comfortable, it’s safe to say that rugby shirts should be prioritised as one of the best casual shirts that you need in your wardrobe right now. It’s even better that you can support your favourite rugby team while you’re at it.

1. That one bright coloured shirt

As mentioned before, most shirts that people buy are monochrome in colour. Why not try something different and buy that pink or yellow shirt? Go ahead and get that orange shirt - no one will judge you for it.
