Whether you’re an off-the-shoulder fanatic or just like to get a little whimsical with the occasional top, there is something that everyone goes through with off-the-shoulder tops and dresses: the sleeves slowly creeping up your shoulder so you’re back to a regular, boring shirt. But, don’t fear! With just two items you can make sure your off-the-shoulder top or dress never rides up again.

Tools

All you need for this DIY are two elastic hair bands and 4 medium sized safety pins! You want to make sure that the elastic hair bands aren’t too new because then they’ll be a bit tight on your skin, so stretch them out first.

Safety Pins

Instructions

  1. Take two safety pins and put them onto each of the hair elastics.
  2. Then, find a good spot on each side of the shirt to secure the safety pins. You want it to be close to the armpit but also in a plan where it’s safe to secure, like on a hem or even an elastic.
  3. Do that on each side, and then you’re done!
  4. Try the shirt on and make sure when you put it on your arm goes over the elastic so it lays onto your skin.
