I grab a button-up at least twice a week when getting dressed.  Putting on a beautiful, crisp cotton shirt to transition between seasons is a simple joy in a well-curated wardrobe.

Sculptor turned clothing designer, Erin Connelly and her creative entrepreneur husband, Brooks Reitz, created a line of menswear-inspired women’s shirts called E.M. Reitz.  They are confident classics and as practical as they are luxurious.  Their tight range of solid colors and stripes actually offer a lot of freedom when styling and make great additions to your wardrobe, especially in the spring.

My top three for spring are:
1. Lunch in Quo Vadis
2. Baker’s Apprentice
3. A Clear Day

Prices range from $390 to $450 per shirt.  Each piece is designed in Charleston, South Carolina and produced in NYC’s Garment District.

They recently held their trunk show in Brooklyn’s Fort Greene neighborhood, but you can keep up to date on upcoming events via their Instagram @e.m.reitz.
