We all know Monday's can really suck. But it can suck a little less when you're feeling good about what you're wearing. I'm a firm believer in "look good, feel good" and think that starts with your outfit. If you're in leggings and a tank, with your hair undone and no make-up on (like I am right now) then you feel comfortable, but I also feel drab and lazy. While there's nothing wrong with that, dressing like that doesn't make Monday go any faster.

Cue: Shark shirt












Most of y'all know I am obsessed with sharks. Shark week is my second favorite time of year (Christmas being #1) and I go shark fishing on our annual family trip to Kiawah Island. When I saw this shirt, it was a no brainer that it needed to be in my closet.

But, just because it was in my closet didn't mean I wore it. Like I've mentioned, I have a complex about shirts that aren't long enough and I never had a tank to wear under this shirt that didn't ride or bunch. Thankfully, I have recently discovered SNUG camisoles. They are form fitting and don't ride up, so I wear them almost daily.

I'm trying to spruce up my wardrobe with pieces that I already have, and that outfit is just that. I pulled the shirt out of the back of my closet, and I pulled the pants out of the suitcase I packed almost a year ago when I moved out of Athens.

I'm kind of in love with this outfit. It's funny, but not stupid. I think pairing it with a colored pant gave it a contemporary look and made it spring time appropriate (aka not drab and colorless).

I'm glad I gave this shirt another try, and I'm pretty sure it's going to be making more appearances now than ever before.
