HOLY SHIT, GUYS.
I'm back.
Don't hate me, please.
The fashionista life keeps me way too busy.
But I still love you. I promise.

ANYWAYYYY.
Today I'm going to teach you something fantastic.
We are going to learn how to make crop tops.

(Glorious, glorious crop tops.)
Look in your dresser.
You have 500 old t-shirts, right?
I know you do.
Every poor bitch has 500 old t-shirts.
Pick the biggest one you have, and let's get started.
Here's mine:
Huge grey/blue t-shirt thing.
(Excuse the selfies.)
(And also the face...)
Alrighty.
First Step:
Lay your shirt out as flat as you possibly can.
Even iron it, maybe, because it's probably a wrinkled wad of shit right now.

Second Step:
Cut right above the hem of the shirt.
Please do it nicely because, depending on how lazy you are, this part will show.

And theennn...:
Take your straightest ruler and draw the biggest rectangle you can.
Toss the sleeve & collar bits elsewhere, you probably wont need them again for this.
(Maybe horde them for later use or something.)

"Side" Note:
My pictures are sideways for a reason, here, guys.
The sides of you shirt are now the top & bottom.

(Oh, oh, oh, it's magic!)

Now the Rest,
Well, that's for you to decide, bitches.
Yah, I'm making you be creative.
Enjoy it.
Embrace it, even.
I'll give you some tips, I suppose.
Ok, so, here's the easiest thing to do:
Safety pins.
The numbers will depend on the size of your body & the size of the shirt,
So don't take my numbers without checking your own!
(The "shoulders" will always be wider than the "waist.")
There you go.
A custom crop, just for you ♥
(The "shoulders" will always be wider than the "waist.")
OTHER OPTIONS:
> Sew the areas outside the pins, instead of pinning. Looks more like a real shirt and less like pinned rectangles.)
> Give it a hem! (Much more like a real shirt. Much more time consuming.) (But it looks REALLY nice, though.)
> Punch holes and tie it. (The no-sew way out.)
> Use buttons or fancy brooches or some shit. (Or more safety pins!)
> Shorten it! (Not too much, or you'll look like a skank.)
> Decorate it or use a tee with designs on it already.
> (Really, guys. The choice is your's with this thing)
There you go.
A custom crop, just for you ♥
I'll add a picture of mine soon. :)
Forever Yours,
Samantha
