Ever since Sheinelle Jones joined Jenna Bush Hager to host TODAY’s fourth hour in January 2026, it’s been exciting seeing their friendship blossom. From having an unexpected family connection to speaking highly about one another on multiple occasions, it’s almost hard to believe that they’ve co-hosted together for less than a year.
We’re always looking to our TODAY hosts for fashion inspo; after all, they’re very much in the know on the latest trends. On a recent episode, we were surprised to find the two matching in white button-downs—a sweet sentiment to their friendship. They were laughing together and smiling as they answered viewer questions about group trip etiquette.
Jenna paired her shirt with a butter yellow slip skirt, while Sheinelle wore dark wash fitted denim. Both wore chocolate brown strappy sandals and accessorized with gold jewelry (Jenna with a layered necklace set and Sheinelle with statement stud earrings). Both looked sharp and dressy, reminding us that a good white dress shirt can be timeless and versatile.
If you want a crisp white shirt of your own, our resident style expert, Home & Apparel Reviews Analyst Amanda Constantine, gave us a few options to recreate the look. She happens to be in the middle of finding the best white button-downs, so she had recommendations already in mind.
For a budget-friendly option, Constantine calls this Old Navy shirt an incredible value. “It’s a bit sheerer than some of the others I’ve seen, but it has the perfect oversized fit that’s not too bulky. And it comes in tall and petite sizing,” she explains.
For a pop of color, she recommends this oversized poplin style from Abercrombie, which has a blue lining inside the cuff that gets exposed when you roll the sleeves. “The material felt substantial yet breathable, so it wasn’t sheer but didn’t weigh me down,” she says.
For a splurge, Constantine suggests a button-down from The Shirt brand if you want a one-and-done piece that’ll remain a staple in your wardrobe. “This one is made for easier travel because it uses ‘non-iron’ fabric with a wrinkle-resistant finish. It looks fresher when you pull it out of your suitcase. I opted for a medium for a slightly roomier fit and loved the look,” she says.
We also love this relaxed oxford from Amazon, which comes in several other colors.
BRB, I’m going to dig in my closet to find my trusted dress shirt and bring it back into my rotation.
