I started with this lovely yard sale shirt/jacket thing:
 |
| Shoulder pads big enough for a linebacker? Check! |
 |
| Because of the high side and back slits, when I wear it as a top I'll wear some sort of cami underneath...or I could close them up a bit. |
I like that this is now a versatile piece that can transition from my everyday wardrobe to a beach/pool friendly piece. What do you all think? I'd love to hear from you! Check out the full tutorial here.
Peace,
Andrea

I love it! Beautiful and stylish (and one would have never thought that the original shirt had it in it).
I have a shirt, that I have thought of to make into a kimono-sort-of-thing, and this the perfect inspiration.
Really cute and looks so great on you. Love clothing that you can wear to many different things.
It looks great! Good work! :-D
Very pretty. And what an improvement to the sleeves. Love how the buttons are still on the belt.

Thanks all! I love that this was super low waste (two very tiny scraps cut off), and I'm finding all kinds of great uses for cuffs ;)
You did a great job! It's nice enough to wear out other than the beach!
Great refashion! I really love it. Great job.
Thanks Jennifer and Lovenicky :)
That's so CHIC! Wear it with big shades, a massive sun hat, and sky-scraper heels, whilst emerging from a sports car! Total movie moment!! :D
Gema, you set the scene nicely...now add to that a bag of sand toys, water wings and my 5 year old in tow ;) I could totally pull it off! Lol! Thanks :)
