DIY: Upcycle Thrifted Button Up Tee

I’m such an essentials tee and jeans go-to type of gal but wanted to shake things up and add something a bit cuter to pair with my denim pieces that still had the ability to keep things casual or dress it up if need be.

Instead of starting from scratch for this tutorial I experimented with upcycling a thrifted, mens button up shirt and transforming it into a cute Reformation / Faithful The Brand style top that features a square neckline, gathered shoulders and shirred sleeves. A cute staple piece that is versatile and beautiful.

I'm really happy with how it all came together and can't wait to see how yours turns out too if you give it a go. See the steps of how to make this number in the video tutorial below!
