Selena Gomez proves shirts are the new party dresses in an open button-up and thigh-high boots

After Meghan Markle sold out the perfect office shirt dress, Selena Gomez has demonstrated how to turn the wardrobe staple into a sultry going-out 'fit.

Yes, a white long-sleeve button-up isn't just sexy when stolen from your partner's closet for breakfast in bed or paired with jeans and a sharp bob à la Uma Thurman, though that's definitely still a fierce look. In her latest mirror selfie, the 31-year-old pop star styled a crisp shirt dress — which she left unbuttoned enough to show off a peak at her bra — with classic gold jewellery and sky-high patent leather stiletto boots, giving a brand-new meaning to “legs for days.”

While Selena's button-up is nipped in at the waist and appears designed as a dress, one could get the same effect by tailoring an oversized Oxford or leaving it as is for a boxier, ultra-mini look, as Irina Shayk demonstrated twice in a recent Instagram fashion photo dump. In one look, Irina paired her black dress shirt with her own thigh-high boots of the leopard variety, adding an additional cool factor by layering a Tupac t-shirt on top. In another look, she gave the no-pants look another go by pairing a black button-down with an oversized blazer and controversial Tabis.

The celebs are lampshading, your honour! Even Gisele Bündchen wore an oversized denim jacket as a dress at a recent NYFW dinner event, though she opted for clogs over thigh-high boots.

But back to Selena Gomez. The Rare Beauty mogul later shared a pouty selfie from dinner with close friend Nicola Peltz Beckham, proving this sexy outfit wasn't wasted on a date night. In fact, Selena recently joked about her relationship status while wearing a more casual pantsless look on TikTok.

“Guess who has a boyfriend?” she lipsynced while sitting on a couch in a white sweater and pigtail braids. “Not me, bitch! Y'all be safe out there!”
