Fit to be Flared

to Read (
Words)
Wearing – Top: Boutique purchase {old} | Jeans: Hudson's {old} | Wedges: Guess {similar} | Bracelets: Susie Raine, Olive + Piper | Watch: Vince Camuto | Necklaces: Layered & Long, J.Crew | Earrings: ILY Couture {on sale for $3.99!)

I'll admit that I totally purge my closet every now and again. I go through everything and either donate items or put them on eBay. However, I'm happy that I let this top hang around for quite some time. I bought this top as a soon-to-be sophomore in college and it's been hanging in my closet since then, waiting for me to wear it again. I love the loose, flowy style of the top and the comfort of my favorite Hudson's jeans. I'm happy to say the comfort level of this outfit was so over the top. To take it up a notch, I paired it with some fun jewelry, including layered necklaces and stacked bracelets. I'm so in love with this tassel necklace and have worn it a billion times since purchasing it on eBay–a total find for under $20!

    I love when an old piece becomes new again- and love the flares!

      I do, too! Instead of constantly shopping, I've been trying to work in more pieces that I already have in my closet so my clothing gets more use. :)

      Thanks Jessi! I never realize how red my hair is until I'm out in the sun. Ha! I purchased these a couple of summer ago and I'm still in love with the cat eye shape.

    I should learn to put stuff on eBay, I just have never tried. I usually sell my purged items to a store in town for a tiny profit. I love both of the flared pieces!

      Definitely give eBay a try! Poshmark is another easy one too, but I find that they take more of your profit than ebay.

      I seriously have thought about discarding this top a billion times, but it's so comfortable and has such a great shape I couldn't get rid of it. I'm glad I didn't, too. I can't say the same thing for the billion of black tshirts I have however. Ha!

      Thanks Brooke! I fell in love with the cat eye shape a few summers ago and still love them. The leopard is such a great detail, too!

    Oooh I love the back of that shirt and how well it goes with that J Crew necklace :) Anything I can wear some comfy jeans with is a plus in my book.

      Agreed!! Any top I can throw on with a pair of comfy jeans is a winner in my book. That J.Crew tassel necklace was a major find on eBay. That's for sure!

      Thanks Iren! This outfit was pretty plain looking so I enjoyed adding necklaces and accessories to it to make it pop.

      Thanks Katie! The outfit definitely looked a little bland without jewelry, so it was fun getting to add some extra accessories to the outfit.
