Forget a mall haul, create the perfect crop top right at home. Find your favorite Barefoot tee, mark where you want the magic to happen, and snip your way to a crop that’ll make heads turn, add a little detail on the neckline if you want, and you have a brand new shirt! cut a bit longer than you think, you can always go shorter, but “uncropping” is something we haven’t figured out how to do just yet.

Not too Knotty

Let’s take a minute to admire one of our favorite DIY styles, cropped but with a front knot. So simple, but so on trend. You’re going to want to cut a good amount off this one, but remember to cut off less than you think at first.. After you have your favorite length, cut a little slit up the middle and tie. You’ll make a statement anywhere you go.
