"  Gearing up for spring and summer usually means a whole new wardrobe, but if you&amp;#039;re looking to save some cash, why not repurpose some of the basics you already have in your closet?! Boyfriend Khaki Shorts Take a pair of oversize or loose-fitting khakis and neatly cut them (use fabric scissors!) a few inches above each knee so they become shorts. Use the extra fabric to make a sash so that you can pull the khakis in for a cute boyfriend look.  And if you really want a challenge, make some cut marks across the middle and bottom of the shorts to get a ripped/frayed look. You&amp;#039;ll have to tease the fabric around the cuts and wash them a few times to get them looking just right, but eventually you&amp;#039;ll have a unique pair of shorts you can tell all your friends you designed yourself! Twisted Tank Take a scoop-neck tank (like a beater) and carefully cut the straps at the top seam. Twist each piece (so that it&amp;#039;s twirled) and then sew the tank back up at the seam. This will make a cool, fancy-looking twisted strap tank that looks more expensive than your normal tank with regular straps.
