DIY

1.19.2010

I had DIY'd an old pair of shoes a few months ago but did not have my blog up then. I'm wearing them today and decided to post up the pics of the shoes in the making. Sandpaper, car spray paint, thumbtacks, leather/PU swatch, superglue & two similar belts. Voila!

Old shoes

Spray paint process (newspaper inside to not paint the interior). Sanded the shoes before in order for paint to stick better as shoes are patent.

Studding process

Superglued leather swatches to create a loop in back of ankle. Cut up 2 belts to create ankle straps.

Horizontal Stripes

1.18.2010

I was a little hesitant buying a horizontal stripe light colored skirt. I mean, how flattering can it possibly be on a womans hips? However at $8.00, who cares. Today is the first time I'm wearing it and I'm extremely glad I bought it and actualy regret not buying more colors.

Grunge

1.17.2010

I just love the look of raglan shirts. This sounds stupid but I always feel cool when I wear them. I always wanted to have spent my 20's in the 70's.
This top, Aerosmith's "Sweet Emotion"... dream come true :)

Parka

1.16.2010

I finally got myself a parka and absolutely adore it. Couldn't wait to wear it and luckily the weather was on my side. We're in the middle of January in Montreal Canada and the weather today was +3 Celcius!!! Sweater & parka and I was totally fine.
Wish it would stay like this until Summer.
