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 …
Come summer time, I love dresses and tank tops just as much as the next girl. However, the fun opportunities for more jewelry make me love summer even more. Arm cuffs have always been a favorite of mine – I’ve made quite a few with stretchy string and metal beads. They add a funky, interesting …
As I mentioned in the most recent “Inspiration Spotting” post, I’ve always had a thing for metal elements. From brass to silver, even just a touch of metal can add some dimension to a piece. With my new found adoration for hardware stores, I’ve been searching for ways to incorporate these elements in an interesting …
Embellished frames are absolutely everywhere this summer. A staple festival piece, for sure. That trend has the actual frames covered, but what about the rest of the accessory – in other words, the arms? To me, the arms of a pair of shades are almost like blank canvases…so much can be done! To …
This week’s inspiration is all about beads…lots of them! Yesterday, I shared some inspirational photos involving intricate beaded pieces. Of course, the projects here at s&p will be much more practical in terms of tutorials, but I couldn’t help but fall in love with the gorgeous beaded accessories. Today, I’m starting off the bead …
Earlier in the week, I posted the Blanket Denim Jacket – an easy way to incorporate the long time blanket pattern trend that has been going on for quite some time. Because I had so much fabric leftover, I thought I’d whip up an over sized rectangle clutch and share it on s&p. I love …
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 …
