Fringe Tank Top Transformations

During the summer season, we try to avoid Urban Outfitters at all costs.  Why? Because if we were Miley Cyrus rich we would own 95% of their inventory, and since this is not the case, we have to conjure up  other ways to look fabulous on a budget. That being said, instead of spending $54 on a fringe crop top/tank top we devised a way to create the same look for $2.80:

1. Travel to your nearest Forever 21 and purchase your favorite color of their V-Neck stretch cami
2. Measure six inches from the bottom hem of the shirt - cut all the way around 
*do not throw away the bottom portion
3.  Decide how high up you would like the fringe to go, mark the shirt and begin cutting 1 inch think slits (make sure you don't cut them too high, you want to avoid under-boob)
4. Once you've completely fringed the shirt, slide beads onto the fringe - you can make any pattern you want just make it colorful!
5. Tie a small knots after you slide the beads on so they don't fall off while raging

*Use the leftover material to wrap around your head as a headband.  The fabric is stretchy so you can either knot it, or slide it on as is to add some hippy flair to your outfit, while keeping your hair off your sweaty forehead.
