Goodbye flutter sleeves yellow shirt refashion

So sad, I purchased this top when tulle was having a big sale and I liked the yellow. But the top is NOT what I ordered online. It is almost depressing when I actually order clothes that are not previously owned and I dislike them. Luckily I didn't spend much. So the ends are not even hemmed!!!! This caused the sleeves to roll up!!!

They just look bad!! Off they come! So I laid the shirt out and cut leaving room to fold over the hem and will sew it down.

Ahh, BUH-BYE!!

Fold over and sew down!

I cut off excess if I had too much. Then it needed a good ironing. 

I added a tank top underneath since it was see-through some and I wanted some modesty for work. Paired with one of my favorite pencil skirts!

Oh they are gone! Happy! Now it will get worn!

New Sleeves

I found this nice Ralph Lauren shirt at Penelope's Closet. A thrift store that benefit's Penelope's House. $3 for Ralph Lauren, soo nice!



However, when I put this shirt on the sleeves were weird. They were poofy at the bottom on the sleeve. But this was a thick cotton with some stretch to it, it doesn't pool nicely or hang nicely. I think it was a sheer, light fabric this shirt would be cool. Ralph got it wrong in the fabric selection. So I took out my seam rippers and removed the sleeves and readjusted them. I did one sleeve at a time. Here is shot after one of the sleeves were fixed so you can see the difference.



Then I fixed the other sleeve. And here is the end product. Yay.



I fixed a Ralph Lauren mistake. How nice is that?

More refashions are on the way since I am able to be upright a little more after the accident. :)
