Simple Solution for Too Long Shirts

If you saw one of my recent posts, you might have seen that I was running into a situation about what to do with some of my shirts that are too long. I absolutely HATE tucking in my shirts. It's just so uncomfortable. A  follower of mine from BeautyBehaved told me I should do a "how to wear" post so I thought this would be perfect since I finally have a solution on how to wear too long tops.  Tie it in the front! Ta Daaa =D

 This is one my my favorite shirts from F21, but I put off wearing it for so long because of its length (I didn't exactly think that through when I bought it lol). Easy fix though and it actually makes me look taller by tying it because I have a long torso...somehow it just works. 
 This one below is a before and after. See how long it is? it just doesn't look right for work, maybe if I had on jeans, but with slacks not so much; tying it solves the problem.
 I was a little worried that my managers would think the look was too casual, but they actually complimented my outfit lol. Go figure :)
Pants: Moda International, Shoes: Gianni Bini, Blazer: Express, Tops: Forever21
I get hot at work from running around so much so updo's like this sock bun above or the messy knot in the first pic have been my go to hair looks. I plan on doing more of these outfit post in the near future.

I have an accessory haul coming up featuring some sunglasses and earnings that I recently purchased, along with some new items added to my etsy shop that I want to show you.
