The half-tuck

My sis and I were discussing the other day the popularity of the half-tucked shirt. A lot of bloggers do this for their pics (or perhaps in real life:P). So, on that note, I thought I'd do an outfit pic with me doing so.
H&M shirt, Target pants, Steve Madden booties

 How I really wore the outfit the whole day:P 



So comfy....yay!

Do you guys like the half-tucked-in-shirt look? To be honest, I've always thought this was a silly thing to do, especially coz everytime I do it, it just looks sloppy.

I think it's a bit silly because people don't really wear their clothes like that all day, right??? Well, at least I don't.

I like the half-tuck, but honestly, I prefer the full tuck because it's a much cleaner look! :) I love your leopard pants!! :)

I like the mixed prints here. I partly tuck my shirts in sometimes, but it really depends on the shirt & the pants, sometimes I like it sometimes I don't...it can help you play with proportions if you have a shirt you really want to wear, but it cuts a little too low etc.

love the seemingly easy simplicity of the outfit and your hair, wow, amazing! This outfit works maybe better without the half-tuck, but I have to say I think it's a good way to bring some structure to some outfits, not all though. At least for me, as my back is really short and full-tuck would be sometimes too much/formal. :)

I always do it! Because sometimes the shirt is to big and tucked in it fits better! And I totally love your hair!

I really like how honest you are about how you really wear your shirt. I occasionally do the half tuck (and actually wear it) because when I can do it right, it looks really good. When I try and it turns out sloppy I just say screw it and wear it out like you did.

Thank you, everyone, for the thoughtful comments. I think I just have to figure out a way to wear a shirt half-tucked without looking like I just got out of the washroom. I do think it has to do with proportion of the shirt and the pants/skrit:)

 If you've been reading my blog for the past few months, then you know my love for Alabama Chanin. Here's the newest addition to my wardrobe. :) Alabama Chanin Flora Waffle Sweatshirt, worn with North Face jacket, UNIQLO pants, and Vans sneakers The organic waffle knit fabric is naturally dyed using Sappanwood sawdust, and the foliage design is hand-painted! What I love about Alabama Chanin is that many of their pieces are one-of-a-kind. PS It was my eldest's birthday when these pics were taken:) How was your weekend? Any new purchases lately?

Here are some recent shots taken with my Pentax K1000 film camera. I decided to mail my films and have them developed at Downtown Camera , and oh my gosh, you guys! Such a big difference with how they turned out. So so happy, and will be sending all my 35mm films to them from now on. (All these shots were how they were sent to me...no editing. Used Fujifilm ISO200 films.)
