Gas-Station-Core Fashion Trend
I Tried TikTok's Gas-Station-Core Trend and Felt Like Britney Spears in "Crossroads"

I really took the theme to new heights with my 7-Eleven bowling shirt. This was perhaps my favorite gas-station find, and I teamed it with a pleated cargo skirt and Coachtopia shoulder bag to achieve a '90s look.
While the 7Collection rings in a bit higher than the graphic tees you'd typically find at any old gas-station convenience store, I knew I would continue to repurpose this top for years to come since it's such a classic. The same goes for my cherry Thursday boots, which I've now owned for almost 10 years. Just like gas-station-core is a trend that transcends time and can be reinterpreted depending on the shopper, these boots can, too. I feel like they also gave the look subtle '50s flavor, while of course nodding back to my purse and matching embroidered socks.
My outfit: Fanvereka Low Waist Pleated Skirt ($16), Ergo Bag In Coachtopia Leather With Cherry Print ($275), Thursday Cherry Heartbreaker Boots ($125), and Princess Polly Emelita Socks ($15)
Gas-station item: 7Collection Retro Woven Button-Up ($50)
