Have you ever found yourself with a wardrobe bursting with LOADS of pieces and accessories, but still leaves you struggling to find what to wear everyday? Or do you think you have a boring wardrobe and need to step up your style game? If you answered Yes to any or both of the questions, then these DIY Fashion Tips may be exactly what you need.
Read this post before you go for your next shopping trip.
Denim Magic
Denim is one of the easiest materials to customise. There is so much you could do with an old pair of tired jeans. I once gave my old jeans a new life by cutting the legs off and adding some Hello Kitty studs I got online to it. I needed shorts to wear around this house, and this old pair was just sitting unworn in my wardrobe, so I used my very limited DIY Fashion skills on it.
Clothes shopping is always challenging, especially since popular styles today are not always popular tomorrow. That is why finding comfortable skirts and shorts that stand up to those changes is important. One of the best fabrics to look for is denim. Denim skirts, much like denim jeans, are quire popular. They are good to wear in all seasons and the durable fabric is long-lasting. Whether you want to visit with friends at a local tavern or present a professional appearance at work, a denim skirt can do the job. You can also express yourself well by picking different colors or washes of denim or selecting skirts with added features, such as snaps or buttons. Accessorizing differently can help you turn one denim skirt into a perfect compliment to multiple outfits.
You can also change an old pair of jeans into a denim skirt by cutting off the legs, and the inside of the legs and sewing them together.
Sneaker Special
Sneaker are also very easy to personalise and make your own. You could get many of the sneakers companies to personalise a pair for you or you could opt to do it yourself if you are brave enough.
Create by Computer
Creating a design by computer is another way to customise your clothes. There are many companies you can find online that would produce your designs for you. You could design your own shirts, hoodies, hats, joggerss and so many more.
Say it with an Oversized Bow
The oversized Bow is bang on trend now, so this is one added feature worth having on your pieces and accessories. You can update a tired looking shirt or skirt with a bow (you can purchase handmade oversized bows online), if you are into the trend. I am so into the trend, I have new flat shoes with the oversized bows. I got the pair some months ago, and I am so in love with it.
A Second Chance
Before you get rid of your next set of clothes, have a good look at them and see if you can use any buttons, zips, or trimmings to update another piece.
Are you a DIY Fashion lover or expert? How do you customise your pieces? Have you tried any of these tips before?
