DIY Fashion: Cut-out Shirt

Hey there fashionistas! What's up? Today's DIY Fashion Challenge is to create a really sweet top! I stumbled across this super stylish shirt a few days ago on this adorable korean-fashion online store. It's totally chic and surprisingly casual and I just love it!


I was really inspired by this item and wondered if I could try and create something similar to it at home. It's really simple and looks great... 

What you'll need:

  • A long-sleeved oversized sweater  of any colour.
  • Something to draw with e.g. chalk, a pencil or a pen.
  • A good pair of scissors.
Here's how you do it:

  1. Place the shirt flat on a surface and iron it.
  2. Draw large circles on the sleeves and shoulders of the shirt.
  3. Carefully cut out the circles with your scissors.
* Optional... Using a sewing machine, tidy up the edges of the circles by folding the circumference of the circles inwards, and sewing over them.

And, voila! You are ready to go!

Take care!

XOXO
