Patching Things Up

Ever look into your closet full of clothes and realize you have nothing to wear?! Nearly 3 decades of life and I still can’t figure out how that keeps happening. I buy clothes, I put them in my closet and, somehow, there never seems to be anything in there. This day was one of those days. I had these new jeans from The Limited that I was dying to wear, but for the life of me couldn’t find anything in my closet to wear with them. Enter a little creativity!
You guys know I love a good denim on denim look, but I’ve posted so many of them that I decided I needed to spice it up a little. So I took one of the many denim button ups in my closet and tried out something a little different. Instead of putting my arms in the sleeves, I decided to tie them around my waist to create a makeshift tube top. A super fun way to get maximum use out of your wardrobe. Paired with a pair of skinny patchwork jeans from The Limited and a tie dyed denim bomber from H&M, this isn’t your every day denim look.

Ok, this is so good. I’m going to do this with my denim top today! I kept reading to see where your unique tube top was from and when I found out how you did it…. Amazing! Thanks for the inspiration 🙂
