A Study in Black & White #2: Gingham Button-Up

Okay, so I may have done some more copycatting...

But I've been in love with this J. Crew shirt for quite some time (it is always styled sooooo cutely [is cutely a word?  I'm certain it is, but does it look and sound weird to anyone else?] in the catalogs!).

And I decided to whip one up for myself, using this pattern.  As it turns out, it actually was pretty easy and not all that time-consuming (about 7 hours cutting to completion)!  And although I almost never wear button-up shirts, I'm now kind of obsessed with this!

We moved the photo shoot into the bathroom for this one...exciting stuff :)

Is it weird that I kind of like it buttoned all the way up?
