Messily tucked top-Thrifted, Shorts-Thrifted/DIY

I like to shop a lot. Unfortunately, on a student’s budget spending the majority of my income on clothing isn’t always a viable option. Because of the aforementioned issues I tend to go thrifting a lot as well. For the majority of my thrifting life I’ve only bought items that were perfect for wear before I hit the checkout line. But I’ve learned that one of the most important and often overlooked aspects of thrifting is the ability to see the potential in garments even under those truly depressing, fluorescent thrift store lights. I thought these pants were kind of cool when I spotted them, but I thought they would make an even better pair of high waisted shorts. I’m pretty happy with the results and it only took a few snips and stitches.
