Weird Pocket



T-shirt: thrifted
Skirt: thrifted
Socks: Forever 21
Shoes: Urban Outfitters

This T-shirt has a weird little pocket that, as you can see, rests above my bust. I really don’t like that, but since I love the color of this shirt and haven’t been able to find another top in this color, I still wear it.

I spent today scouring two thrift stores for potential Etsy items — finding nothing at one of them, blehh to Great Deals Thrift Store — and searching for a dress to wear to my friend Natasha’s wedding on Sunday. I’m having the hardest time finding a dress! I ordered two online that I had to return because they didn’t fit me well, and now it’s too late to try finding something online again. I’ve checked three thrift stores, Anthropologie and Ross as well with no luck.

I may end up wearing a dress that I already own, possibly this thrifted dress that I wore for Easter. In fact, I’m considering recreating that entire outfit minus the polka-dotted top layered under the dress. Natasha and her fiancĂ© Mike’s wedding colors are basically the primary colors (a pinkish deep red, a turquoisey blue and gold, going by the invitation they sent), and I know Natasha’s sister is wearing red, so I want to wear a blue or yellow dress.

  1. PS: Check my closet. There could be a good wedding worthy dress in there.

  2. I always wonder what they design such pockets. Truly serves no purpose. But you are right : the colour is great!

    I like the Easter outfit, it might just be perfect for your friend's wedding. Shopping and not finding can be so frustrating...

  9. I love chartreuse! It's such a weird/lovely color that I can see why'd you'd forgive the shirt for having a useless pocket. ;)

    Isn't it funny how when you're actually looking for an outfit for a special occasion, you never seem to find anything, but when you're broke and browsing, you want everything in sight? I hope you find something perfect, though I do think that blue dress is really pretty on you.
