in the hope you'll pick up scissors & start cutting up yours!

As a stand alone garment
I don't wear T-shirts
and haven't since I've been old enough to buy my own clothes
I'm pretty sure the initial aversion to them was due entirely to having the body shape of a boy [no shape] which has continued over the years as I've morphed into a beached whale
so when out & about on rescue missions
and I see simple frock styles made from gorgeous fabrics
just like this fabulous original 60's frock
it doesn't matter that she's not wide enough to get my left leg into
I know I can make her fit...

| a cardy for every occassion |
the tricky part can be deciding
which of the REinventing options on file to choose from
each choice would've created entirely different looks
meaning different uses
and with summer on the way I opted for
the least invasive & obtrusive
by cutting a wedge from the ribbon detail on the tablecloth
rather than going full floral
with lovely deep in-seam pockets being retro-fitted
as a matter of course
because who knew pockets could be so handy
and with early morning dog walking
& beach combing expeditions to maintain
having a Top I can chuck on and walk out the door in
means Tops are my T-shirts.
