Creative Solution for Oversized Shirt

Have a big shirt and don't know what do to with it? Well why not try this solution! It's perfect to layer over another shirt to make it look brand new!



Here's the same look, but this is from Bebe. It costs $69!!! Say whaaaa?
Any idiot with a pair of scissors can do that.

Here's how its done. Simply fold you shirt in halves the direction in which you want the cuts to be made. Then, simply cut along the edge. It looks good if you try and keep the lines even. I did multiple rows on mine. I also cut out the neckline of the shirt to make in a tank top style.

Its super easy. I like the style with something a little more formal over it. Otherwise, it can look really sloppy looking just worn plain. Try it out! See how it goes! The possibilities are endless!

What To Do With Torn Clothes

Do you have shirts or pants with rips or holes in it? Well here's an easy solution: Rip it more! This look was inspired by my roommate Jessica (also a fashion design major at FIDM) who had a pair of leggings and a shirt will holes in it and ripped it up more to make an exciting new look.


The best way to rip your clothes to make it look intentional and fashionable is to rip it in areas. Do not over  rip up a piece of clothing, it will look like your dog tried to eat it. As shown in Jess's shirt, she decided to make small holes near the hem and at the shoulder.




I love how she paired it with the combat boots, makes it look casual, cool, and trendy.

Another way to wear this look is to layer things under the holes. Try wearing lace tights under holy jeans or leggings. Or wear a patterned shirt under a hole-y shirt. The possibilities are endless!
