Today’s piece is inspired by a tee I spotted at Urban Outfitters.


I found this tee shirt for $1 at one of my favorite thrift stores.

I took my tee in 2″ on each side. I didn’t want it to be super-fitted, but I didn’t want to drown in it either.


Next, I made my own open raw-edged cutout detailing (i.e. hole). While I was snipping, I also cut off the bottom hem and trimmed the neckline down a bit.

Now I have a suitable copycat that only cost me one measly dollar! 🙂

Now…let’s have a look at that back!

I wore my new tee to my good pal, Erin’s place for a Walking Dead Season 2 Marathon! Fella and I don’t have cable, so I reallllllly appreciate when my friends do! 🙂

I absolutely love this show! And I loved the company. Especially these little fellas!


…Such a lovely undead evening! 🙂
Sometimes I worry that I’m becoming boring. I used to frock out in shredded fishnets, combat boots, and the very briefest of miniskirts for nights spent hanging out with bands, passing around a bottle of bourbon behind bars and spend my days in a state of perpetual recovery of the night before. I used to smoke, flirt, misbehave, and thought nothing about causing a scene. Now I find myself concerned with things like decorum, my fine china collection, and getting in early so I can get a good night’s sleep. I still go out, but I get just as much pleasure hanging out and drinking good wine on a friend’s porch, decked out in a baggy tee shirt. Pajama jeans seem like a really good idea, I’ve really gotten into cooking, I’m thinking about starting canning, and now I prefer a pleasant evening to a crazy one.
20-year-old me wants to slap 29-year-old me repeatedly. Fella (who is about 10 years my senior) tells me this means I’m “growing up”, becoming “more mature”, and a bunch of other nonsense. Maybe it’s time to do away with childish things…or maybe I’ve lost my edge.
Either way, I’m enjoying it immensely! 🙂
