The detached collar seems to be all the rage recently.I’ve seen it all over pinterest and on many blogs but I wasn’t about to pay top dollar of a designer collar.
I picked up this blouse from a thrift shop and kept a few things in mind when selecting it for the job.First, that I would be able to button up to the top (some blouses have a very small neck!).Second, that it had a stiff collar so it would easily hold its shape.And third, that it had a collar that had character.The one I chose has an elongated collar that I think gives it a little extra edge (it might just look like a regular collar but if you were to have it side by side with another collar, you would see the difference).A lace or printed collar would also work well, I just happened to keep my clean lined and crisp.

Oh nice DIY – the collar looks great! Great tips about paying attention to the type of collar though, definitely works better with stiffer, more 'special' collars. Must try this! :)www.phoandchips.com
