Anthropologie Inspired Shirt


I had bought this long sleeve shirt on sale and wanted to transform it into something for summer.   The first thing I did was cut off the sleeves.

Then I found a cute shirt on the Anthopologie website that I thought was cute and wanted to do something similar.

So I used one sleeve to drape from one shoulder along the neckline and the other sleeve I gathered and attached to the other shoulder.  What's that called, ruching? If so then that's what I did.


I thought for a shirt that I bought for next to nothing to turn it into this, was pretty exciting.

    Perhaps this should call for a challenge ... How many looks can be created with cutoff sleeves !

    It looks great.

    Your t-shirt is just darling! I am now wondering how I could do that on a very plain neckline of a dress. It would be so cute!
