Here's the tie-neck shirt on the Gap models:
I'm not crazy about the bow.
Cute but would be even cuter with a sweater!
I've seen this tie thingy on other blouses and always thought it was cute (especially when paired with a v-neck sweater). So I thought, what the hell.
I didn't love the shirt by itself so on another whim, I purchased a cute navy blue button up sweater vest from J. Crew (it was on sale... I'm a sucker for a deal).
So, I put it together and am not sure how I feel about it.
Excuse the poor lighting. I'm in the women's bathroom at my office. And don't worry - nobody was in the bathroom when I snapped this pic.
Does it work? Is it too "Ellen"? Weird? I'm pairing it with jeans and some brown flats.
Random side note - when I volunteered at the Food bank yesterday, I noticed a sign they posted in their bathrooms that read:
If you sprinkle when you tinkle,
please be neat and wipe the seat!
Genius.
