Oh come on.. You can't resist!
 <  Image 1 of 2  > 

I got this hello kitty t-shirt at a Japanese market for ten dollars.. hooray! But, unfortunately, it is a youth XL. Now, I stood there, trying to convince myself that I, then fifteen years old, could still squeeze into a children's shirt. I got it anyway, but haven't really worn it since then... Now it's a bit more snug and not so t-shirt like..? Enjoy! (..or not, whatever) :D

    Step 8

    I was going to stop there, but I just didn't like the shape of the shirt. So, I did the whole hourglass shabang. Ignore the right side of the shirt, I don't know why it came out so weird-looking in the picture!

  9. Step 9

    Step 9

    I didn't like the sleeves, so I wanted them a bit shorter. I cut them at an angle, too.
