before & after

I love everything about this 50s cotton shirt, but I haven't been able to decide how to wear it and what to wear it with.

I tried this.

Not very blogworthy. So, a few tweaks later...

And voila. Much better. I love this tying the shirt at the waist thing I've seen people do, but I've been reluctant to try it. I try to spare people from my pregnancy stretch marks when I can. But why, oh why, haven't I discovered high waist pants sooner!?! Now I can show a little skin again. :)

Shirt: Vintage, Estate Sale
Shorts: Forever 21, thrifted
Shoes: Rocket Dogs

And I put some victory curls in my hair just for fun. Much better.

I love before and after pics. Sometimes getting dressed in the morning is a process. Have a lovely Wednesday, everyone!
