We're Crushing on Emmy Rossum's Ladylike Chambray Shirt and Skirt Look

Emmy Rossum's casual sophisticated style
We love Emmy Rossum's casual yet sophisticated style. She's given us yet another way to wear a chambray shirt, that wardrobe workhorse that seems to work with everything. Here, she goes for an almost-monochromatic look, tucking her shirt into an indigo blue skirt with of-the-moment sheer detailing, then adds classic black extras. To get her rosy glow, try a sheer lip tint from Drew Barrymore's affordable makeup line, Flower!
