pajama party

Today I was inspired by a stylish unknown girl at RAFW. She was wearing a plain white button up with a pocket, but cropped and with short sleeves. I love basics with a twist because they're easy to wear and go with everything, but they're still interesting. So, I decided to cut off the bottom half of one of my dad's old shirts, (it doesn't seem old or worn out, he must have not used it very often) hemmed it, and voila! A new crisp white summer blouse. I decided to keep the sleeves long but as the weather heats up I might be tempted to cut them off. On another note, I wore these H&M pants to a bar one night and a foolish girl told me that it wasn't a pajama party. (I won't tell you the rest of the story.) I don't live in a very fashionable town so sadly its not that surprising but I'm curious to know what you guys think. Are they ugly?

    I love the entire look and whoever called those pants pajama does not even probably know how to dress up and besides those are not PJ's they are called harem pants! :))) anyway, I loved with what you did with your polo. it's cute! :>

    The sexy mid-drift and the wild comfy pants make this outfit fun! It is something I would definitely see on the streets of my city. It definitely expresses your artistic side. with your DIY bracelets, and messy-up-do and dangle earrings. Great look!

    *sigh* I live on an island which doesn't know what fashion is, so I truly understand what it must have been like with the trousers comment. BUT THEY'RE AWESOME! and i love the cropped shirt idea, I know someone who's gonna tweak their dad's shirt too :P hahah
