I remember as a little girl loving tie-knot shirts. Whenever my mom and I would go to Children’s Place or Limited Too (do you guys remember those stores?), I would always ask her to buy me one. I had one in every color, pink, yellow, purple, blue, green, etc. I just loved them and I thought I was really cool and fashionable haha. Eventually, I grew out of that phase and was never interested in them. If I came across someone wearing it, I would think ‘how retro’.

Fast forward to now, I am just like my little girl self wanting a tie-knot shirt. If you remember this summer post, I turned a button down into a tie-knot shirt. It just makes your classic button down shirt more feminine. So when I was going through ThredUp, I was immediately drawn to this Banana Republic Shirt. If you are not familiar with ThredUp, it is an online consignment & thrift store. This store makes going/shopping at a consignment store so convenient. I love to shop at consignments and thrift stores. You can find so many amazing and unique pieces. Unfortunately, all my favorite ones are not that close to me. So I rarely go. When I heard about ThredUp, you bet I was all for it!

ThredUp has items from well known brands such as Banana Republic, DVF, Vince, Cole Haan, etc. Think of a place store you like to shop at and you bet ThredUp as some of their stuff. They have transformed the way people think about secondhand store. I knew going through ThredUp, I would find the perfect tie-knot blouse and voila I did! I love its silky long sleeves. I can easily create a romantic look or like what I did here, I created a fall-ready outfit. All I had to is accessorize it with a navy blue wool hat and burgundy crossbody bag. The weather was not cold enough for boots yet, so paring it with loafers was perfect.

I highly suggest looking into ThredUp. If you do decide to make a purchase in the Banana Republic line, use the code ‘BR50’ and get 50% (for first time users only). Let me know what you guys end up buying!

  7. I'm pretty sure all of my Limited Too tops had ties on them. lol Heck, I remember my sister and I "making" ties into our tees. Oh the 90's…. You've gotta love an old trend dabbling in modern times. This totally works, while bringing back my childhood nostalgia. (;

  8. OMG, I totally remember those stores growing up and yes, I wanted to tie my tops too. And the funny thing is that my little girls like to do that now. I haven't heard of Thred Up so thanks for letting me know about the site. I definitely want to go check it out especially with a 50% off deal! xoxo, Christine
