When it comes to a refashion, I'm a great believer in the importance of knowing when to stop. This lace top is a case in point. I had plans to add contrast trim, new buttons and a peter pan collar. But when it came to it, it was more about restyling it than chopping it up. All it took were a couple of tweaks....
Note the rather dodgy sponge shoulder pads in the first photo and the overall frumpiness of the style. With the shoulder pads removed and the top switched back to front, it becomes a cute button back lace top.
Much more up to date with little or no effort, and a great little wardrobe basic :)
