This is another project for my palette challenge ss2012. I finished this top 5 days ago, but only today I am having time to post it on my little blog.
The style is very simple, basic on built by wendy shift dress. I will explain to you what I did with the pattern on the below post.

I've been reading and learning the book Built by Wendy Dresses, for this tops I used the shift dress pattern. I had to shorten the dress pattern more less right in the hip line. I created the neck line with a boatneck style. I also removed the bust dart and finished with high low hem line. No zipper or button inserted in this top.

Happy weekend everyone:))
