Ways I Wore It: Horizontal Striped Tee..


Since it's moving week for us, I have created {and will be scheduling} posts each day to keep you busy while I'm finishing packing, moving, unpacking, and decorating, {and to keep me from panicking about being away from my blog and all of you for so long}. So I'm rummaging through old posts and compiling some of my favorite outfits, diys, and decor in fun new ways.


leopard and stripes, skirts with sneakers
The casual version of the outfit below in the same color scheme.


Today... one of my favorite t-shirts ever, which is actually from Forever 21. I bought it back in 2007 I think and it originally had an elastic band around the bottom. After a year or so of not wearing the shirt too often because of said band, I simply grabbed a pair of scissors and cut it off. It rolls up just a hint at the bottom edge now {see it above} but I love it and wear it quite often still.

Here are a few of my favorite outfits with my cheapy-DIY'd T-shirt...

I love your blog and your fashion style! Sometimes those cheapy shirts from forever 21 turn out to be the most versatile! I have fixed many of shirts by simply cutting off the annoying elastic band like you did!

I think it would be cool for you to have some sort of voting where readers could pick their favorite Love Maegan looks of all time!

girl, you are the queen of mixing and matching! i like every single one!

and the elastic at the bottom of a shirt is MADDENING. i think i should go home and take scissors to all shirts that have that! lol i might just do it!!!

p.s. i hope you have hired movers. omfg. it makes the whole stressful move process a lot less stressful on the big day. and a lot less physically painful! :) it is still hard work, but extra hands help. DOY. like i am telling you something you don't know.
