Have an old sweatshirt that needs sprucing up before tossing out? Or perhaps, like me, you're looking for the perfect casual-meets-cool sweatshirt.
I found this sweatshirt at Giant Tiger for $4 (what?!); they also had black and navy (which I may go back for another at that price). The great thing about the price too is if you screw it up, it's not a huge deal. Read on to see how I made this masterpiece...
Fold the sweater in half so your neckline is equal.
Start cutting about 2 - 3 inches in from the shoulder seam.
I wanted to keep the 'triangle' stitching at the neck so
I just cut above that along the collar seam at the front.
(My boat neck actually ended up being a little too wide, but oh well, I will still wear it).
Voila!*
Pair it with:
* Jeans & a pair of ankle boots.
* A sequined skirt & tights.
* Leggings and a long tank (sporty, even works for the gym).
Don't feel like making one? Here are some cute F21 options:
* Tie-dye.
* Similar to mine (gray).
* Yes, I basically cut the neck line out of this sweatshirt and rolled up the sleeves. It doesn't get much simpler than that. You could cut off the bottom band, but I wanted to keep mine... for now at least. Have fun!

I've never heard of this place before but rest assured: I will be doing this for fun. Super simple and SO cute. Not to mention, I love huge sweatshirts, and anyway I can make them look like I didn't just roll out of bed... is good :)
