D.I.Y Denim

Hey guys hope you've all been well!

So for a while now I have wanted to wear some ripped jeans!

I love the look and there's something so carefree about it which I love, in my opinion style is supposed to be stress-free, because it's YOUR style. It's who you are and what you are comfortable with.

However I wasn't too keen on buying ripped jeans as I remember being able to rip my own jeans very easily  in my uber tomboy days

Luckily I was able to find some Levi jeans for wait for it... £1!

Yeah I know it's pretty awesome!

So I created the look myself!

So all you need are a pair of jeans, scissors, and some tweezers 


To get the ripped lined effect, cut two lines into an area of your choice


pick out the vertical lines of the denim, leaving the horizontal ones




For some assisted help you can use a razor to fringe the edges


It should end up looking a little like this!


Same goes with cutting out a whole in the jeans






Luckily as they are jeans they go with anything!

Here are a few shoes that I paired them up with...







P.s. Be careful with the scissors! You might get a boo boo!


Hope you enjoyed this post!

The 4 way Dress

Hey guys I hope you are well!

How good is the weather right now? I think it just make London a much happier place don't you think?

Anyhoo, I'm sure most of us have that black dress that we feel is a bit played out or that we want to wear it again, but don't want to feel like we're repeating if you know what I mean ;)

There's so many ways to do it! I've come up with 4 ways to give you a bit of help!

1. Night on the town.

This is a very risqué look for me as I'm very used high waisted and crops haha, but it definitely makes for an outfit! To add some glamour I added a couple of jewelled pieces and threw on a light trench! 













Trench: Rare, Dress: Motel Rocks, Shoes: Primark, Bracelet: New Look, Necklace: Primark

2. White Tee with the kicks to match.

I would say this is defo a summer outfit! but can easily be changed with some tights and a nice thick coat, but I kept it summer fun with a curb chain and an oversized denim jacket.











Jacket: Vintage Levi's, Dress: Motel Rocks, Crop Tee: Asos, Shoes: Converses, Chain: Asos Marketplace, Sunglasses: River Island

3. Oriental Princess

I must say that I do love a good kimono! I found this item in a charity shop! Defo was a bargain! To add to this eccentric look I added my metallic loafers and if you really want to push it a flower headband!










Kimono: Charity Shop, Dress: Motel Rocks, Shoes: Topshop, Headband: Topshop

4. Is it a skirt or a dress?

That's right people! Just put a skirt over your dress! Whether it's a skater skirt like this one or a maxi skirt, it works! For the cool effect I added a biker to finish the look!









Jacket: H&M, Dress: Motel Rocks, Skirt: Topshop, Sandals: River Island

Hope you enjopyed this post guys!

Enjoy the rest of week!

God Bless
