Reminder: The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book-Asymmetrical & #SpreadTheKindness Link Up On the Edge #663

Feeling a little lopsided these days? A bit on the crooked side of things? Maybe a tad irregular or uneven? Why not express your creative distortions with us this month by sharing your favorite (or least favorite) Asymmetrical wardrobe items.

What is The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book?

The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book is a monthly series hosted by Nancy of Nancy’s Fashion Style and myself. Every month, we invite you to share a photo or two of your Good (or Bad) Buy items that fit the stated theme. We ask that you also provide a short description explaining if the item you are sharing was a Good Buy or one that you will be saying Good-Bye to (formerly known as Bad Buys). Nancy and I will both publish a round up post featuring all of the submissions on the 15th of each month.

Anyone who would like to participate and be featured can send us their photos with a short description via email. You do not have to be a blogger to join. Anyone is welcome! We will give you the theme for the next month at the conclusion of each post. Photos will be due to us by the 10th of the month.

So won’t you please join us for August by sending some photos and descriptions of your favorite (or least favorite) Assymetrical things to shelbeeontheedge@gmail.com or to info@nancysfashionstyle.com by August 10, 2023. You are welcome to submit more than one photo if you would like features on both of our blogs. 

Asymmetry in fashion generally manifests mostly in hemlines and sometimes in necklines. An asymmetrical hemline is one that is uneven on either the side or the bottom of the garment. Some examples of asymmetrical hemlines include handkerchief, high-low, shark-bite, shirttail, slant, and step hems. Asymmetrical necklines include one shoulder styles or some sort of uneven cut out designs. If you think creatively, I am certain you can all find some asymmetrical fashion item in your wardrobe or even your home decor. All of my handmade curtains have asymmetrical hemlines!

Here is some asymmetrical inspiration from my personal archives.

As you can see, most of my wardrobe asymmetry occurs on the hemlines of dresses and tunics but waterfall cardigans and ponchos also provide a variety of asymmetry as well and I have one pair of jeans with step hems. But feel free to use your imagination and creative perspective as you search for something asymmetrical to share with us!
