Chambray

For some reason whenever we think of chambray that Naughty By Nature song gets stuck in our head. No matter. The point is that chambray is big this summer and we're happy about it. The chambray work shirt is classic 1930s Americana. It's sexy and rugged and a staple for the season. And while there's no messing with a basic like the two-pocket button down, we're happy to see this lightweight cotton or linen fabric cropping up in different styles. Click through for the best in chambray (and lightweight denim) for summer.
