What to Wear to Work - T M Lewin 1898 Maxine Red Check Shirt

        


       Along with the trailing of the size 4 shirt on their website (go, look, buy), the powers at be, over there at T. M. Lewin sent me a shirt to trial to provide feedback on the size and fit. The shirt I was sent is the Maxine Red check shirt,  listed on the website as the "Fitted Red Check Shirt2 here . The pattern is a slanted Red check (my boss has taken to calling me Daisy Duke ever since I wore this shirt to work.)

    The material is 100% cotton as usual,  and has a bit of texture to it. The material is not as light as material used to make the Blue Dot Print shirt here, it is slightly heavier. This shirt is very suitable for use as layering piece in the colder months and can be used under a suit jacket/blazer/cardigan/vest. The colour of the shirt is deep ruby red which fits in with a winter colour palette. The patterns helps it to straddle the border between formal and casual.
