I have really been enjoying my uniform of basic t-shirts and jeans. You can read more about my latest style inspiration here and here.
As I tend to go for more slouchy/oversized tshirt look, the sleeves
usually fall at such an unflattering length on me. So I have been
rolling my short sleeved tshirt up for a more flattering shape. But this
is no accident - I really love the look of rolled sleeves, on
print button downs or just on a basic tee. It's kinda sports chic
grunge/urban street style - of which I love so much. Although, I think
the kids these days are calling it “Tumblr Style” - either way, I love
me some rolled short sleeves action.
I
think the short rolled sleeves take a shirt from looking dates and
simple to looking more relaxed and thrown together. I know that doesnt
completely make sense, but it does. The rolled sleeve to me looks like
you have put thought into how a piece of clothing hangs on you.
Polished. Am I crazy for thinking so? Maybe. I especially love it on
guys who roll up their printed button downs. Its 50's rockabilly meets
surfer chic. (I just make this shit up as I go by the way - but I feel
like this best describes what I mean).
But in terms of womanswear, its very chic these days to own a
tshirt which you can roll up - case in point; these lovely ladies below.
These ladies exude relaxed and carefree attitude.Always a goal of mine when dressing.
Now,
I don’t know about you, but I find that I always have to keep adjusting
the sleeves so that it doesn’t fall down again. And this can get super
annoying. So I found the perfect trick that can fix this issue. But more on this in part two of the DIY.
