If you've been reading this blog for any amount of time you know about my thing for David Bowie and you also know that I have quite a collection of Bowie tees and also a sweatshirt. (Whenever I wear that sweatshirt out in the world I get wistful, sad smiles from other women. It's lovely and a little off-putting.)
ANYWAY, I am a super fan and I'm always looking for my next t-shirt fix. When I saw this one at Anthro I was immediately all, OUTTA MY WAY LET'S DO THIS. (I get that this isn't precisely a Bowie shirt but y'all. It is totally a Bowie shirt.) Then I looked at the price tag and was like, NOPE. Fuck you, Anthro. I decided I'd wait for a sale.
Then my birthday came along with a discount and a gift card and I bought the lightning bolt tee so fast it was silly that I even thought I wouldn't. It's SO GOOD. A nice heavyweight waffle tee with an oversized fit (I'm wearing a small) and, bonus, it's keeping me from wanting this ridiculous thing. The brand is Letluv and they also make an over-priced Ramones tee that I want but I'm not sure how I feel about buying a Ramones tee from Anthro, you know? The Blondie sweatshirt is also cute, though? I am conflicted.
The lightning bolt is quite the star of this show so I kept things simple with my little Pyrrha Jewelry pendant. I'm also wearing my Madewell Perfect belt which is not.
My Longchamp le pliage bag has been getting a lot of use lately! I love that it's lightweight and holds a surprising amount. The nicer nylon version is available here in red and there's a different red available here in leather. My sneaker boots are Vince and they're on sale over at Off 5th! A nice change from my usual Chelsea boots. That's all I got for today but be certain you will see this shirt on the blog quite a lot in the future. Sorry/not sorry.
um, I love it! it looks like it's been worn and loved and reached that perfect level of 'loved in'(?) clothing. Your haircut looks perfect with it too :) (I just remembered I have a blog list to read and it's so exciting!)
ReplyDelete"NOPE. F*ck you, Anthro" is basically my mantra. They are just too. damn. expensive. ALL THE TIME. Even for T-SHIRTS. Ugh.
ReplyDeleteCute outfit tho :)
