Harajuku Lovers





I found this very cute "Harajuku Lovers" thermal shirt at the Goodwill a few weeks back and I really liked it but thought that I would probably never wear it other than as a pajama shirt. But I just couldnt pass it up. So I decided to refashion it into a quick, simple and easy elastic skirt for my little girl. All I did was cut it into the shape I wanted it, hemmed it under and sewed in an elastic band. I really wanted it to have a pocket (because my little one loves ANYTHING with pockets) so I cut an extra piece off the sleeve and simply fashioned it into a pocket. It turned out perfect and she loves it. It's light and airy and great for running around outside in :)
