Can you tell I'm getting rid of empire waists?

Ugh - nothing worse than writing up a whole blog post about a shirt you want to give away, only to realize you can't take a picture of it because you've already given it away!!!! You'll have to use your imagination

A friend gave me this shirt when she was weeding out her closet. I think she said she gave it to me because it was too girly for her. I'm completely "meh" about it now. I think I just don't like empire waists. Good thing to remember for the future.

Why did I take it?
It was cute and girly, and I was still in the giddy "love" phase where I felt I had to be cute and girly.

Why did it work?
It's not a blousy empire waist that doesn't work on me. It's just rubberized dots, stitched or woven.

How have I worn it?

I know I've worn it more - just never blogged about it. And it's barely visible in this picture. It's black with purple dots, comme ça:

What will happen to it?
Went to my sister - haven't heard back from her about it.
