While polo shirts definitely look nice on men, women indeed can look pretty good wearing them too. In the fashion world that is flooded with t shirts, blouses, and dresses, polo shirts are truly being ignored. To be honest, there are only so many ways to style a polo shirt as the key to look good with it is to wear it as part of a simple outfit. Having said that, as usual, I will do my very best to come up with my top outfit ideas on how to wear a polo shirt and hopefully you can use it as a helpful reference.

As mentioned, keep things very simple is the key when it comes to polo shirt outfit ideas. When do you wear a polo shirt anyway. To me, I think a good time would be a visit to my neighbour or when I have line up for something in a government department or a bank which I want to dress in a way that I am very comfortable yet I still want to look decent and mature. Anyway, back to this outfit, you can simply wear a white polo shirt with skinny jeans and heeled sandals.

A chic way to wear a white polo shirt is to pair it with a denim mini skirt. You can definitely wear heeled sandals for a more elegant look, while white sneakers can make a causal street look. I can imagine that this outfit still looks really nice if you replace the polo shirt with a white button up shirt, but the style and feel would be very different. The outfit with the button up shirt would be more like a work outfit, while with a polo shirt, you seem more like in a leisure mood, as if you are going golfing.

Although I love boyfriend jeans much more than flare jeans, not because of where the fashion trend is at these days, but because of the way boyfriend jeans allow me to freely and comfortably move around, flare jeans do look nice if you wear them with the right items. As a good example of this, this outfit consists of a white polo shirt, black flare jeans and boots.
