My choice 2

Sometimes I have creative moments one of these moments that feel like an emotional outburst. At those moments I feel like I haveeee to do SOMETHING dramatic to let it out, like an itch waiting to be scratched. This thursday was one of these moments. That day I decided I wanted to make something I had in mind for a longgg time. I wanted to alter a garment I already had. And That's what I did, I went all the way Y'ALL! I went for a legging I already had but one that was tainted (it was already ripped a lil' bit). 


I'm very very very HAPPY with the result. You like? I know I DO! I wore it outside with a pantyhose beneath it and a short under it. You can create your own ripped legging too, wanna know how I did it? keep on reading.
What you need:

• legging
• scissors (they have to be very sharp to really cut through the fabric)
• patience
• and that smile on your face when it's done!

The legging I chose was a H&M legging(4 euros) I thought that this legging outta work the best. 

Then I started cutting it. I didn't use a guide whatsoever, although I had an imagine in mind what I wanted to create. I didn't wear the legging when I started at the bottom, but later on (above the knee area) I was wearing the legging while cutting it. As you can see I started at the bottom and worked my way up.

For the finishing touch I added spikes that are also from H&M to accessoirize it.

The result:

What I'm wearing: necklace H&M, legging H&M, blazer H&M, shirt V&D, boots Michael Kors.

What do you think about the result? And have you ever altered clothes?

My own design!

Heyy,

I'm so busy with school (I'm a law student), that I haven't had the time to post anything.
But now I so have some time and I wanted to share something with you!

I am so proud. I my first design is finished, I have a love for dresses and wanted my first design to be a dress and black.
I love peplum dresses/skirts. So that's why I decided to make one myself. I started by sketching what was in my mind.

And of course I made her look like me, a bit!

I already had in mind what I wanted my dress to look like.

 I wanted a balloon kind of skirt

A little bit of sexiness for the back

 

And I wanted lots and lots of colors due to the fact that my dress is already dark!

Okay okay I have to give it to you! I had a little bit of help my Mom is my "designer". Ohh man what she can do with scissors and needles and some thread. She made my dress and I made that drawing and THIS is my result. I wore it at my dad's birthday party and I may alter the dress in the future maybe go for less color but I don't know... maybe I will!

what do you think?

What do you think about the dress I made
	it's soooo fab! I would wear it
	Well... although it's your first design I kinda like it
	Fail!! I'm sorry I do not like it!

Insparation Chart

Do you ever go shopping and have your mind set on one thing in particular but come back with something totally different?

I for one get that a lot I had my mind set on that dress!! but I come back with 4 shoes, 2 belts and a pair of “hello kitty”socks I frankly do not need. but not that dress and along the way forgot to buy (those socks were too cute to resist ^ _ ^)

And I also forget many necessary things I wanted to buy in the first place. That's why I came up with a plan of my own. I thought it would be a great idea to make an inspiration chart!

Making an inspiration chart is a visual form of note taking.

Through the use of colors and images. I made this chart in paint and sent it to my phone.

When I go shopping this reminds me what it is what I came to find. It keeps me on track and keeps me from coming home with 4 shoes, 2 belts and a pair of “hello kitty”socks I frankly do not need. This system has helped me to keep my wardrobe in order and know what I need and do not need.

What do you think of the idea of an inspiration chart to help you go shopping?
