Starting 2025 in Style | How I Styled a Deconstructed Shirt for Church

Happy New Year, loves! I hope your 2025 is off to an amazing start. I’m so excited to be back on here, sharing fashion and connecting with all of you. Honestly, I missed this space so much last year! 2024 came with its fair share of challenges, but I’m determined to be more consistent with writing this year—hold me to it, okay?

Now, let’s talk about the look I wore to church this past Sunday. It’s giving effortless yet elevated, and I’m obsessed. I love classic pieces, and this deconstructed white shirt from SGTC CLOTHING is so perfect and different. It’s oversized but structured, with playful details that make it anything but basic. I paired it with sleek black tailored pants for that perfect balance.

To keep the look vibrant, I added this bold pink bag. I mean, who doesn’t love a pop of color? 💕 The contrast really brought the outfit to life. And can we take a moment for these earrings? Big, gold, and unapologetically statement-making—they’re a total vibe.

My hair was styled in a sleek bun (classic and fuss-free). My forehead decided to make an appearance in full glory. She’s out here shining and reminding us that confidence is key. 😂

Fun fact: I shot all these photos myself with my camera and a trusty remote. Self-photography really came through because 2025 is the year we’re not waiting on anyone—not for pictures, and certainly not for opportunities. We’re making it happen!

Tips for Styling a Deconstructed Shirt

1. Pair an oversized deconstructed shirt with fitted bottoms like skinny jeans, tailored pants, or a pencil skirt to balance the volume.
2. Wearing statement earrings, or vibrant bags can elevate the look and add personality just like I did.
3. Wear your shirt as a layering piece—throw on a cropped sweater, or even a structured blazer for a unique twist.
4. Cinch your waist with a belt to add definition and create a flattering silhouette.
5. Style with heels for a polished look, sneakers for a casual vibe, or boots for a touch of edge.
