Ina Garten’s Timeless Uniform Includes This Essential Top That’s Also a Go-To for Martha Stewart

Ina Garten may be the queen of the kitchen. But she’s also the queen of casual dressing, thanks to one specific item in her closet.

The author of the cookbook has been seen several times over the years in a denim shirt. Her latest iteration, which she shared in an Instagram post, was styled with a sun hat, big sunglasses and friends on board. She also wore button-down denim pants during an episode of her show on The Food Network with Emily Blunt and while grilling hot dogs with her husband.

Garten certainly isn’t the only celebrity to pick up on the top’s practicality. Martha Stewart can’t stop wearing them, and she chooses different shades three times in May alone. Julianne Moore, Mindy Kaling and Chrissy Teigen have also rocked button-down denim shirts.

We’ve rounded up similar styles for the Ina Garten channel starting at just $30.
