MY STYLE: DIY Shirt Dress

Happy hump Wednesday loves. We're already midway through a short work week- woot! I extended my 4-day Easter weekend by an additional day to catch up on some much needed rest but because I'm such a busy body, I didn't actually rest. Either way, it was great to be out of the office (as always).

In my last post, I mentioned that I was slightly obsessed with the latest off-the-shoulder trend. I have yet to see an off-the-shoulder item that I dislike. With that said, I went on YouTube and found this video showing me how to quickly and easily transform a button-down shirt into an off-the-shoulder top. In this case, I transformed a men's shirt into a shirt dress (slightly shorter version but cute). I paired it with some not so new fringe heels and my everyday Michael Kors bag (mini-suitcase). I LOVE how the entire outfit turned out. Do you?

Simple T-Shirt Reconstruction

Hi lovelies:

 

It's hump day!! We're almost there. Just thought I'd make a quick post about another new-found passion and that's ripping/recreating/reconstructing and totally manipulating t-shirts. These designs do not invlove any type of sewing and that sounds great to me.

 

Who doesn't like a good comfy, unique looking t-shirt?

 

I intend on reconstructing alot more tees and creating new designs so be on the look out for those posts.

MY STYLE: DIY Reconstructed jeans to maxi skirt

Hi beauties:

How has your weekend been thus far? Done anything interesting?

I'm excited to share my first sewing project with you. I have officially become obsessed with fashion blogging and recently, I stumbled upon a fellow blogger Mimi G. Mimi G is a mother of 6 who sews for a hobby and her outfits are amazing. She's such a talented woman and the best part is that she shares her passion for fashion and sewing with the world on her blog and Youtube channel. If you think I'm kidding when I say she's amazing, go check her out for yourself. If you have never sewn a stitch in your life, you can learn from Mimi. Her tutorials are that simple.

Today's outfit is really simple but it excites me to share it because I followed Mimi's super easy instructions and made a perfectly wearable denim maxi skirt out of 2 pairs of jeans that I stopped wearing a long time ago. You can also make your own awesome denim maxi skirt by following Mimi's instructions here.
