These days I have started to become way to care less with shopping. Naa... not in the spending department. I have some how bought clothes which are at least 1 or 2 sizes larger than what I wear. I shop in Mumbai and I stay in Pune (these place are 153.2 kms - 95.19 miles away from each other), so its not possible for me to exchange them within stipulated time. Hence the only option is to alter them. And luckily, as mentioned before I love to alter my clothes. 

I had bought this short sleeved cardigan from MAX. I had picked size M at the store and home came size XL. Anyway this is how I altered it...

Correct, no 'before' pictures clicked...  So the pictorial illustrations.


I have used tucks on the back-neck line as the problem area was the neck line.. It used to droop from the shoulders.
4 inches or more has vanished under these beautiful tucks. 
Added the button detail on top...



It was a boat-neck cardigan but after the alteration it has become V-neck.



I team these with the cardigan
