maternity shirt refashion

I have kind of a sad and pathetic maternity wardrobe.  There are a couple of cute things in there, but with Oscar I mainly got by on ill-fitting hand me downs.  This time around (btw - I'm  18 weeks pregnant.  yay!), I've decided to at least try and spruce things up.

Take this pink button down shirt, for instance.  It is not the worst thing I have ever seen (although it seriously needs a good press), but it isn't exactly flattering either.

 
I took out the collar (because I don't like wearing collars in general), shortened the sleeves, and added a bit of elastic to the front to give it a better fit.  I still can't say this is my favorite maternity shirt ever, but it is much more likely to make it into the rotation (ironing really makes a difference, huh?).   :)

 
Have you ever done a maternity refashion?  I have a few more shirts to play with, and would love some ideas.
