Pink Short-Sleeved Knit: The Vintage Top Older Than Me

Real story: the knit top is older than me and originally belonged to my mom, she tried to toss it out and I salvaged it.

Photos were taken in the brevity of February when the weather was neither hot nor cold and I could get away with wearing pretty much everything in my wardrobe. How I wish it stayed like this all year round.

Short to mid-sleeved knit tops are some of my favourite staple pieces — I have one in most colourways as they can be easily tucked into mom jeans and pencil skirts alike. Super versatile with a flattering silhouette!

On a side note, my friends have been saying that I’ve worn a lot more pink ever since my mood has lightened considerably. I think it’s just that the pastels trend has finally gotten to me.
