Just a quick post, with tutorials and tips.
One of my friends 'is it just me or does everyone dress the same at college'
This is so true! It made me think of ways to avoid 'dressing the same' It's nice to be able to set yourself apart.
Thrifting
buying second hand and from charity shops saves alot of money and most of the time the item is no longer sold anywhere else or vintage!
Buy Abroad
when you're on holiday, the markets are quite good place to start, but I'd double check the quality
Buy Online
If you buy from an Indie brand, handmade or from a foreign country it's unlikely to bump into someone wearing the same clothes.
Raid relative's wardrobes
saves money and who's likely to be having the same things from 20 years ago?
Sew
easier said than done, but I love being able to make unique clothes that no one else has
Revamp and DIY
add a couple of beads, fabric paint, tie dye, stud, the possibilities are endless.
Go to shop you wouldn't normally go to sch as goth shops and
I thought I would post an old tutorial I did years ago
Get jumper or Tshirt
Tailor chalk the back where you want to cut (like so)
Carefully cut along the lines, making sure you don't cut the front
Simples!
I've had this jumper for 4 years, it's been to Germany, Hong Kong and HIM concert.
I love it to pieces :)
2008 when I first posted this tutorial.
I hope you like this tutorial, I'll be posting some more.
Happy Leap Year day too!
Do you feel everyone dresses too similar in your workplace?
