X gone Y 8: Good girls wear polka dots



I really like wife shirts.They're becoming a basic in the shops, and you can find them to low prices, Yatt for example has a really cool collection of tees for this summer.

But yet again, you can DIY this kind of shirts in a couple of seconds, because if you're not one of the MGMT and they're a basic in your wardrobe you maybe don't want to spend 10€ in a tee and you prefear to DIY and save some money.

You just need to find the right place where you have to cut.

So maybe you'd like to try it with one of your old tees and if you like it, buy one. (Sure, yeah. That's like the lame excuse of download music so if you like you'd buy it later...)

1) Fold the tee making sure the sleeves, the hem and the neck coincide.

2) Put pins in the sleeve and neck so it remains together.

3) You need to mark with your burmester ruler the armhole.




4) Do the same with the neck.

5) Once you had do it with the neck, then you need to sharpen the neck making a new line so it looks good, because if not the neck would be heart shapped and we don't want that.

6) Cut them carefully.










Now, this is optional, I chose to make a pocket with the rests of the sleeve.





7) You need to prove on the tank and make a mark in your breast.

8) Use the sleeve to draw a pocket of around 5cmX4cm.

9) Now sew your pocket over the mark and make sure the fabric is straight. If you want you can use a thread of a different color.

Finally I put this shirt with this polka dots skort that by the way are in the shop already and you can get them to really low price.
