happy spring everyone! sorry for the blog hiatus. between midterms, spring break, family in town, and back to school work, i just haven't had the time to post anything. and there wasn't anything interesting to post anyway. but since spring has officially arrived, here's a fun diy for you to try!
i took an OLD limited too shirt that my cousin gave me...years ago...that somehow was still lingering in a box in the basement. i really wanted to do something with it because i loved the wide stripes and it's perfect for the nautical trend right now.
cut both sleeves off. (measure to your liking)
make a small cut by the neck line. cut around the collar on the front side of the shirt.
flip it over and make a deep, plunging cut on the back side.
{front}
{back}
next, i sewed gold chains on the back so that the straps wouldn't slide off.

and viola! finished product. it's difficult trying to take pictures using natural light when it's cloudy all day...
but i'm very satisfied. it's too easy :)
love and light, xo
