I first talked about them when I was <a href=\"http:\/\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/2015\/05\/denim-long-live-skinny-jeans\/\"><b>spilling the beans about looking after denim <\/b><\/a>and I\u2019ve hardly had them off. From all the looks I\u2019ve worn with them so far, I\u2019ve found their perfect match in this GAP shirt from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rokit.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\">Rokit Vintage<\/a>. I love the short sleeves and fitted shape as they simply don\u2019t make these shirts the way they used to! The denim itself is in perfect condition and Rokit have an incredible selection of bygone treasures from high end to high street for you to trawl through. The quality in vintage clothes really is incomparable to what you find on the high street these days. Unlike most vintage shops,\u00a0Rokit take great pride in every piece they have, washing and making any necessary\u00a0repairs to make the piece as good as new before reaching it\u2019s new home. I like to think this shirt came from a super cool female mechanic who wore hers with a neck scarf, this look is a homage to her, whoever she is.<a href=\"http:\/\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IMG_0947.jpg\"><br \/>\n<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IMG_0820.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-4979\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IMG_0820.jpg?resize=598%2C449\" alt=\"IMG_0820.JPG\" width=\"598\" height=\"449\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IMG_0820.jpg?resize=598%2C449 598w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IMG_0820.jpg?resize=768%2C576 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IMG_0820.jpg?resize=903%2C677 903w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IMG_0820.jpg?w=1280 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 598px) 100vw, 598px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IMG_0942.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-4972\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IMG_0942.jpg?resize=598%2C564\" alt=\"IMG_0942.JPG\" width=\"598\" height=\"564\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IMG_0942.jpg?resize=598%2C564 598w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IMG_0942.jpg?resize=768%2C724 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IMG_0942.jpg?w=879 879w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 598px) 100vw, 598px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IMG_0944.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-4974\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IMG_0944.jpg?resize=598%2C574\" alt=\"IMG_0944.JPG\" width=\"598\" height=\"574\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IMG_0944.jpg?resize=598%2C574 598w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IMG_0944.jpg?resize=768%2C738 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IMG_0944.jpg?resize=903%2C867 903w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IMG_0944.jpg?w=907 907w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 598px) 100vw, 598px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Jeans: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.topshop.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Topshop Bixlr<\/a>, \u00a0Denim Shirt: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rokit.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\">Rokit Vintage<\/a>, Trainers: Converse, Glasses: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pretavoir.co.uk\/glasses\/miumiu-glasses.html\" target=\"_blank\">Miu Miu\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It really does go to show that there\u2019s a reason why you shouldn\u2019t throw out your denim.
