What was your inspiration?

A few years ago I bought a top from a thrift store. It was from The Limited and it was the perfect top for spring and summer. It was a soft light weight cotton in a happy shade of yellow. It had a slightly loose fit that was comfortable yet flattering. It was a staple in my wardrobe. I wore it with denim shorts and white skirts. Sadly my favorite shirt got worn out and started looking pretty shabby so I made a replica of my favorite top. The 3/4 sleeve version is shown in size small and the short sleeve version is shown in size XS.
