Happy Friday Lovelies!

So I've been doing some of cleaning especially in the clothing department, and I found several shirts that I didn't really like anymore (as shirts). So being the thrifty person that I am I turned them into skirts.

And I went a little skirt crazy.

Now they may not be party or special event worthy. But I figured that they would be cute enough to go shopping in, or over to a friends or just to wear at home. Whatever the case, I have new skirts!

I wanted to show you guys how I would dress them up.

Shirt #1

This skirt has a little gold accent that I love, so I decided to add my old/vintage belt (I've had it for eons and decided to resurrect it), some gold earrings and of course denim.

Shirt #2

If you didn't notice, I added the sleeves to the bottom and since they weren't wide enough I made a horizontal slit on both sides.

Shirt #3

Here I chose three different casual looks for the one skirt.

The skirt below was previously a dress that I altered, so I thought I would still share. It was a cute print.

Hope you have a safe and fabolous weekend!
XOXO

Hey lovelies!!

I just realised I haven't posted anything for the new year and Janurary is almost over. But never mind that, for I am here! With a new simple and easy diy project.

Does your dad/brother/boyfriend/friend have t shirts or polo shirts ready to be thrown away? Save them! You can donate them...

Or

You can turn them into a cute fashionable skirt.

Here we will take an old but not too old male shirt to make our very own skirt. All you will need are:

1) A old male t-shirt. For this project I used a polo striped shirt like the one below.

2) scissors

3) An elastic band for the waist

4) A sewing machine or just needle and thread (if you don't have access to a machine)

5) pins

Firstly, laying the shirt on a flat surface and with it turned inside out, draw a horizontal line under the arm and if you would want a longer skirt, cut a little ways above this point.

Since the shirt should have some stretch we don't require alot of seam allowance.
For this step I wore the skirt and then pinned it according to my curves.

(Be sure not to pin actual body!)

After pinning I took it off and sewed the sides and cut off any access.

Then I took the elastic band (which was cut according to my waist measurements) and place it to the top of the skirt making sure to turn the skirt on the wrongside.

Take the elastic down about an inch and fold the top of the skirt over the elastic so it is covered.

Pin skirt, making sure not to pin the elastic between, then sew.

Then you're done! Your skirt is ready to wear !

Check it out!!

I also did this to another shirt and this is how I wore it. Remember if you want a longer skirt just cut the shirt above the arms and alter accordingly. I don't mind the length because iy reminds me to keep working on my legs.

I hope you enjoyed this DIY

Until next time lovies,

XOXO

Buenos Dias mi amigos!

So today I would like to show you guys how took some of my old stockings and made a cute top. I got this idea from ItsMyRayeRaye (Check her out on Youtube), and I thought it was a good idea so I decided to give it a try and show you guys my results.

Now I did this with very light stockings but you can also do this with some old leggings or heavier stockings. All you need are the stockings/ leggings and a scissors.

So let's get started!

STEP 1: These are my stockings, and as you can see they are very light almost like sheer. But they are the only ones I could find.

STEP 3: Now open the stockings and cut the crotch. This is where your head will go. Remember the bigger the cut the deeper the neck of the top.




STEP 4: I cut off the end so it wouldn't be so tight.
