Fashion Chemistry: Button Up


I've been having a thing for tying and knotting up shirts lately. I think it's a fun way to crop your top and feels more like summer...plus ties and knots just look great with everything like skirts, pants, and cutoffs. Have fun with it.



Layering a button up over a dress and adding a belt is the perfect way to take a dressy look and make it more casual. It's one of those easy day to night kind of outfits.




I think layering your button up under a tank is a fun way to layer in the summer. I knotted the tank in the back to make it cropped so I could show off the button up a bit more.


Which look is your favorite?

I think that the second outfit is my favourite, it just works so well Erica although the other two are good as well, tied up or the first look would be my second favourite too.
