"High" Fashion: Rhinestone Spray Checkered Flannel Shirt




Once again some “genius” thinks that just because it says vintage and that they add rhinestones to it that they can hike up the price. This time it’s not a pair of overpriced chucks, but the Rhinestone Spray Checkered Flannel Shirt by What Comes Around Goes Around. This little gem is 190 dollars; yeah you saw it right one hundred and ninety dollars! Kurt Cobain is rolling over in his grave right now to see a look that he made so popular in the early 90’s come back with this price tag. I’m not against vintage resale; remember last week when I raved about how Urban Renewal took old items and reworked them into new items, well they do it right, and at a reasonable price point. If you just have to have the look I suggest you go to your local thrift shop/Urban Outfitters buy an old flannel shirt ( hell buy a new flannel from Forever 21), and then to Michael’s Craft stop to buy rhinestones/fabric glue and have at it!
