    Make a discreet hole on the inside of the hem, and thread through elastic, and knot so the t-shirt ruches up, but not to the extent that the waistband cuts off your blood flow.

    Your new fangled sun-top is now ready to wear. Slip on, and tie neck bows accordingly, and add a jolly brooch to accessorise.
