DIY CUT OUT Denim shirt

 This week I customized a men's denim shirt - I've been searching charity shops and vintage markets for ages looking for the perfect denim shirt and in the end I gave up and bought a men's one from Primark. Cut out has been really popular for a few seasons now and its a really cool way to feminize a shirt as it shows a delicate part of the female body. This shirt is oversized on purpose: so that it could be a  casual mini dress or so that I can tie it tight at the waist and wear it with some high waisted trousers.

Below I've shown how to make this shirt - but if you like what I've done here I'm selling these shirts for £20 and they come in an array of designs - with/without studs, pearl trimmings, lace, fringing etc.

Today I'm wearing my new DIY skirt. Roaming around some cool fabric markets in West London the other day, I was drawn to this gorgeous silk organza in loads of different colours which really inspired me for a an ethereal-themed photo shoot coming up soon. I was also attracted to the black as it highlighted more the silhouettes created beneath the material. So I ended up buying several bags of silk organza and that day I made a skirt from the leftovers. It's actually a belt with a load of material sewn on it, and I 've had compliments all day which makes me think other people might want to wear one too! If you're interested in owning a fabulous skirt stitched together Frankenstein-style (no really, I've recently invested in a sewing machine so its better than previous projects!) then do not hesitate to contact me.

If you prefer different designs on the belt, different colours or a different shaped skirt then it can happen!

King of the Castle

These amazingly comfortable wedges arrived in the post a few days ago and despite weather warnings that my toes could physically drop off from the cold, I wore them anyway. They are literally the comfiest things ever and they give my 5'1.5" titchiness some length. I wore these flatforms all day, running around working for 15 hours and I pranced away unscathed beating the cold and pain free. You might know I get all fizzy inside when fashion meets function and these are the perfect mix.  They are made from a soft velvet material and the ankle strap is perfect support. This bargain for just £18 from ASOS will be surely worn over the next couple of months until the sun decides to make its appearance.

With All My Heart

I've recently become a member with ASOS Fashion Finder which is a little like a cocktail of polyvore and Lookbook but better! I have to say though that making my own collage-mood-baord-outfit-makers in other programs would always be my first choice. Anyhow, this is my first look for ASOS fashion finder and of course we are in February so this is a Valentine's date outfit. Even if it is a little unseasonal...
