diy: a simple way to cut shirt

happy friday!
today i have a fun and SUPER easy diy, no sewing involved.
while i was at the tattoo expo, tom did a bit of thrifting without me (so sad) but i told him to buy me treasures and that man did not fail me one bit. he scored me this super cute quail shirt! isn't he the best!!
it may be the tiny punk rocker in me but i love me a cut up shirt. i have never been a huge fan of high necklines and i do love showing off my tattoo's so instantly i new i wanted to do something to this shirt.
all you need is a pair of scissors and what helps me is making a line with some fabric chalk where i want to cut so that i am not just free balling it. there are so many fun things you can do with cutting a knitted shirt but here is what i did!
you can get a tiny glimpse of my septum retainer
i made a ballerina cut or boat neck cut to show off my shoulder tattoo's and a cut the bottom so that it was more of a crop style shirt which i love so much. bing bang boom, this is the result!
and as you can see i have already worn it a few times and plan on wearing it lots more!
easy, no? how do you like to cut up your shirts? i would love to see what you have come up with! have a great weekend everyone! tomorrow is my friends big day and i can't wait, it is going to be sooo beautiful!
