Refashion: fixing the rip in my black top

This top is a nice, cool cotton that I wear to work. 
Unfortunately due to the mesh fabric it tended to catch on things... like doorjambs. So one day it ripped up one side!
I trimmed the edge of the rip and cut a slice the same size on the opposite side of the top, to make it even. Then I cut two triangles of leftover fabric to use to patch the holes, and overlocked them.
Then it was very easy to sew them in place.

Mismatching bottom, which I don't mind at all.
All fixed :)
