Sewn Shut

Once upon a time, this cardigan frustrated me. I didn’t look right unbuttoned (completely or partially). If I did button it, it had a nice shape, but gaped between the buttons. I almost gave it away, but thought to try sewing it shut first.


Coat, Bebe. Sweater, Forever 21. Dress, Allison Taylor (thrifted). Boots, Miz Mooz. Earrings, Claire’s. Studded choker (worn as a bracelet), thrifted. Bracelet, Serket Jewelry. Bag, Vieta. Sunnies, Girl Props.

Now it fits perfectly, with no gaping. Since I don’t like the way it looks unbuttoned, I don’t mind a permanent solution.
