Mayy's Closet #60

60! The sixtieth item or outfit in my closet. Wow, and there's so many more to go. Oh dear... Anyway, closet cleaning out is still underway and every other day I come up with something that has gotta go, for sale sign goes up or just donate to the salvation army. Got to be ruthless sometimes when it comes to these things...

Anyway, here's a new buy that definitely won't be going anywhere else anytime soon.

A blue/white striped oxford shirt/blouse from Cotton On, finally on sale at AUD10. Thank goodness for patience and a good friend who said NO. I almost bought it at full price the other day. That's one way of wearing it, especially for summer with shorts or denim skirts.

How it looks like, longer than oxford shirts and more casual and soft. Not long enough for leggings unfortunately...

And tucked into jeans for a casual day. If work, just tuck it into pants or highwaisted skirt! Would be so good I reckon. Casually rolled up sleeves instead of leaving them long. But at least there is the option for a more formal look...

Mayy's Closet #51

More on boyfriend shirts after my emerald green one in Closet #49. It is also from Supre a couple of years back. I guess when Supre comes out with a certain style, it does it in a wide range of designs and colours and materials.

This one is slightly more classic. White base with white vertical stripes. It just breaks the white monotony even if it is same colour stripes. The fit at XS is better but I also had another at S (white base with black vertical stripes) before I gave it to my cousin who I know will appreciate as much as I do. After all, I do not need to be hoarding so much clothes right?

With black leggings and boots and waistbelt, it really is smart casual for a slightly more important day in school. Or with shorts in summer, or tuck it in with a high waisted skirt for a supe sexy corporate look.

The material here is cotton but slightly stretchy and thick. While the white is somewhat translucent, it is not a result of poor quality. It merely enhances the look somehow. I also think this is one of the more perfect airplane friendly outfits because you can dress it up with different kind of shoes for different looks and also give you maximum comfort and flexibility to move around in.

Mayy's Closet #49

Alright, so I have been hooked/addicted to Glee, starting right from the beginning. Actually I think it is going to start soon on Channel ten here at 8.30pm. ANYWAY, I thought I should interject some sort of life onto this blog...

One of my first lunch trips down to the city for Tony Roma's with Anna...I wore this emerald green silk boyfriend shirt from Supre.

With black leggings and belted it. Pretty superstar with my Myers sunnies. I love this top so much I brought it back to Singapore and left it to hang out with other favourite clothes. I wore it to work once on Christmas eve with a high waisted skirt. Very chic.

At the train station and a totally posed photo. I did my hair up that day because I was feeling it. I hardly ever do that now though... lost the motivation?

But this one is so not posed, candid shot. But I thought it was really funny. I find boyfriend shirts very flattering and kinda sexy. They are more cut for feminine curves and long enough to wear leggings with if you don't want to tuck it into pants or skirts. They are so smart casual and if done right, corporate ready for the workplace. It really is a winwin for all occasions in your life.

This satin material is lightweight and comfortable under the summer heat. What more can you ask for? Do you have any boyfriend shirts or tailored shirts you literally stole from your dad's or husband's or boyfriend's closet?
