With a little inspiration from a $795 Isabel Marant sweatshirt, I recently whipped up this studded top with some iron on studs. It’s simple, but a great way to dress up a fairly plain sweatshirt. It’s also a great beginner DIY! Not to mention, if you’re looking for an intro on how to apply iron …
My original intention was to share this project last week (see: Sparkle & Fade) but like many creative tasks, it’s not unlikely to run into a bump or two. I would rather take my time and do something right – instead of rushing it – so I decided to wait until the beginning of the …
A few months ago, I was wandering around Williamsburg with my good friend Abby. We stopped by Buffalo Exchange and I scored a Club Monaco leather jacket (and she found practically new Banana Republic jeans!). I have yet to start using it, mainly because I felt like it could use that extra something. I decided …
Now that it’s officially fall, it’s time for some flannel projects! This one was inspired by a shirt I spotted on Free People’s website; I happened to have everything I needed to recreate it, so of course I went right to it. This is a great project for those of you learning how to sew, too. …
This week’s DIY inspiration is all about pleats! On skirts, of course. Now that summer is wrapping up and autumn is well on it’s way, I figured one last skirt project was more than necessary. As usual, this DIY looks a little more complicated than it actually is. It’s a no sew project, unless you …
This week’s inspiration is none other than granny chic tapestry prints. Designers such as Rag & Bone and Dolce and Gabanna have both sent tapestry prints down the runway, while such patterns can be spotted in an array of street style photographs. As promised, I created a project that presents this granny-inspired style in an …
Wrapping up this week with another word t-shirt project! This one makes me laugh out loud. Supplies: – T-shirt – Iron-on letters (c/o My Next Style) – Jersey scrap fabric – Ribbon, or a thin strip of fabric, or something like bias tape (I later cut the bias tape into strips) – Scissors – Iron …
The main concept for this quick DIY tutorial is to share a tip for lining up iron-on letters. Plus, it’s pretty darn cute. Let’s get started! Supplies:– White tank top (this obviously tie dyed before this picture was taken!)– Fabric dye (& rubber bands)– Iron-on letters (c/o My Next Style)– Scrap of t-shirt jersey …
A couple weeks ago, I stopped by the Stetson showroom on 38th in NYC. I absolutely loved how much vintage Stetson pieces were used as a decor, and in the archives. Everything from notes from past meetings to preserved hats to matchbooks. Thanks to the rad Daryl at Stetson, I was able to create a …
Earlier today, I shared this week’s DIY inspiration – BIG bows! Oversized bows are a great way to make a girly statement to practically any outfit. Something I love to do is scope out awesome skirts or dresses at the thrift store and shorten them to a more wearable length. I snagged this particular skirt …
While summer is well on its way, I’ve always found that denim jackets are the perfect all year round staple. I often wear layers in the fall and winter, but in the spring and summer – they’re ideal for those chilly nights. For this project, I took a little inspiration from the blanket print trend …
