OOTD By Request - Bird Shirt

I bought this shirt because it was cheap (AU 13 GBP 8) and I thought it had the potential to be cute, and at that price it was worth a shot.






It isn't what I expected. Looking at the picture on the website, I expected it to be a starchy workshirt kind of cotton, because I rarely pay close attention to these kinds of things. In fact, it is the loveliest stretchy viscose, and could not be more comfortable.
I paired it with a flowy blue chiffon skirt by Rockmans and found it had the cutest retro feel.










I was rather bummed that my good bra has gone on some kind of walkabout, but this shirt was very forgiving, unlike others I tried on today! When I buttoned the shirt all the way up to the top, it had the sweetest innocent almost childlike kind of vibe.

I love this shirt! It is going to be a staple of my wardrobe this summer.


 

love love love,

  2. OMG I had the exact same thing. I thought it would be really structured and was so disappointed when it wasnt. I think it's still nice, but it definitely wasnt what i expected. The picture sells it all wrong!
