I managed to do another refashion a little while ago:
Man, I really love the 80's. I really regret not being born during that decade [90's child whaaaat].
Like for real. Nothing says "Today is a good day" like obscene prints and patterns. I was not loving the shape and fit of that shirt though so I decided to give it a nice little update:
First, [after marking with chalk] I cut the sleeves off to make it more tank-top-y.
Then hacked off the collar to make a more flattering neckline...
Then I flipped it inside out and took in the sides an inch or two. After finishing off my hems, this bad boy was ready to be worn!
Day-um guuurl, lookin' fly [was fly said in the 80's? What decade was that? I don't care, I'm bringin' it back either way.]
Linkin' up HERE and HERE!
Very clever of you! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteThis turned out really well! Inspires me to go look through my closet to see what I can upcycle into something...
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you think so! It's always fun to go shopping in your own closet, right?

Thanks!!
DeleteI think 'fly' may have been 90s (I'm thinking Fresh Prince). Great refashion, I know I would have passed this shirt not seeing its potential.
ReplyDeleteI think you're totally right there haha. But thanks!
