An amazing find for me - GAP boyfriend shirts

I love dress shirts - I think they look amazing on people! 

Unfortunately, they were an article of clothing that I found difficult to buy - they would either be too tight across the chest, or fit my chest and then be too big around my shoulders and back, or just over-all too tight or too large. And then there's always the gape between the buttons - so many gaps!

Last year I was shopping at the GAP (I love their sales and grab my trendier items from there (trendier for me, not necessarily trendy haha); and their sales are amazing) and came across a dress shirt and I thought, why not - by this time, I had decided that I wasn't going to wear dress shirts any more but I figured I've already been disappointed this many times that once more isn't going to make a difference. 

I tried, and fell in love - GAP's boyfriend fit shirts fit me to a T and since my discovery, have added 5 of them to my wardrobe, including the much raved about 'chambray shirt,' and wear them constantly. I also really love this pink plaid one - it looks great with so many things!



And the gaps? Depending on the material, there are none! For the thinner ones, there's only 1! Which I just tape up using double-sided tape =)

December count

Added another shirt and pair of shoes to the donations pile and finally dropped the bag off on the 26th.

I received 2 unexpected gifts from my parents - a black quilted down coat, and a pair of pajama bottoms, which were two things I was on the look out for but had not told anyone and again I received them. I'm starting to think I should just keep quiet from now on and see what happens ;) 
Yesterday, I went to the mall to kill some time before dinner and checked out some sales - nothing really caught my eye but managed to score a few wardrobe staples at the GAP. I purchased 2 pairs of pants and 2 tops for $80!
(The plaid shirt I bought is actually black)


Started another pile for donations and have added more 'knick knacks' than clothing but as long as I'm clearing things out, I'm happy!
