Sad Bats Wheel About The Steeple Of My Dreams

Right before I left for NYC the lovely people at Old Gold Boutique sent me a little goodie package in the mail. One of the items included was this "Double Wang" tee with these amazing sleeves. It is really an interesting shirt, very basic and comfy tee shirt body and then with these soft sheer and mesh layered sleeves that drape so beautifully; making the entire top a mix of dramatics and comfort. It is perfectly in tune with the style that has been inspiring me lately.
