Charity Shop OOTD #2

 Hello!
Another charity shop OOTD for you today. This is my friend Shannon modelling some of thing's I've picked up recently. Both the top and denim cut off jacket are from my local charity shop. I love the top, its got a great 3D corrugated texture. The edges of the top are also lovely with subtle ruffled sleeves and bottom. I think the feminine top looks great with the cut off denim jacket which provides an androgynous edge and I'm all about androgynous dressing. Seriously, I would say this is one of my favourite pieces. It's an XXL men's denim coat. I like my coats over-sized but this was far too big, from the back I looked like Sponge-bob Square pants with a wide behind and skinny legs. To solve this, I cut out a panel from each side and re-sewed them. It did originally have sleeves also but being the proud owner of five denim jackets, I wanted one which was a bit different. I love how you can see the sleeves of a cool jumper or top through it, sometimes they're just too good to hide!
Double denim in a controversial thing, I have to say I LOVE THE DOUBLE DENIM VIBE. It look's ultra cool and is durable for festivals - the added floral hair-crown also providing the festival vibe. I think this jacket looks great with matching denim shorts - preferably without tights but Shannon felt it was too cold!
