This look is pretty simple, but that’s because I wanted to highlight the central piece of my shirt dress. I actually made this DIY lace up shirt myself! It took quite awhile, because I wanted to make sure the eyelets didn’t fall out and the string edges didn’t fray- which is what happened the first time I attempted to make this shirt. Not to mention I probably pricked myself a million times with my needle as I sewed and almost hammered my fingers as I set the eyelets. Nonetheless, the shirt turned out pretty well. I really like the lace-up v cut, because it definitely gives an edge to the look. I paired this outfit with a more sporty and green-blue background to contrast the colors, as well as enhance the vibe of the shirt. I added some silver hoops and sunglasses, which are all simple wired metals to go along with the metal detailing of the lace up shirt.
