I picked up a men's shirt in a thrift store down in Boise last weekend that I absolutely LOVED the color of! It was a beautiful pale aqua color. :) And for only $3 I couldn't resist!!
I actually took pictures of before and during my re-fashion this time! (I'll get better at that I promise! I just get so excited that I forget that people kinda wanna see the process sometimes!)
BEFORE:
This is the shirt. The color is a little off because I took this under my horrible dorm room lighting at like 8pm... |
I marked out with a disappearing ink pen where I wanted the arm holes and neck edge to be (Plus seam allowance) |
Oh Snap! Sorry Calvin...I'm sure your shirt looked great...on a man... |
So after this I just got too excited and into the process and didn't take anymore pictures until this afternoon when I got back from wearing it to classes....haha oops...
AFTER:
I discovered it looked excellent with my new brown belt. :) |
The belt! |
My little owl necklace and my awesome new earrings! |
The top hem of the shirt kinda bugs me, it torqued quite a bit while I was sewing it. Ugh. I might unpick it and use the sleeve fabric to make a facing. The only problem with that is that it will show through since the fabric is so thin...Problems problems!
Shirt: Thrifted and Refashioned $3
Tank: Maurices $12
Belt: 10dollarmall.com $5
Earrings: 10dollarmall.com $1!!
Cardigan: Maurices $20
If you haven't noticed...I'm addicted to 10dollarmall.com. I love when they have their $1 accessory sales!
Have a super fantabulous day! :)
