DIY: Sleeveless Denim Button Down Shirt

(picture via urbanoutfitters.com)

 

Hi all!  I have seen a lot of sleeveless denim/chambray shirt for sale at Urban Outfitters, Forever 21, etc. They all range from about $15-$80.  It is definitely a must have item for this summer.   I am going to show you another quick, easy, and affordable DIY for this trend.   This DIY will work for any button down shirt.

First, grab a sleeveless denim button down shirt.  I bought mine from a local thrift store for only $2.99.

Next, turn one of the sleeve inside out.  

After that, cut off a chunk of the sleeve.  This way it will be easier to cut around the edges.  

Then begin cutting around the outside of the seam. When I'm cutting I don't cut both sides at the same time, instead I go around in a circle.  

When you are done, cut the other sleeve.

Then, you are done,

Here is how I wore it.  I pair it with floral shorts and tie it up.  

I hope you found this DIY helpful.  I already cut the sleeves off of about 5 of my button down shirts.  I have to prepare for summer =)  As always, stay tune for more DIY's!
