Wishful thinking DIY style

 At some point in the summer I was given an old pair of jeans from a friend which I intended to turn into some seriously cool shorts; however, here we are well and truly in winter and they are still not finished. I've taken to wearing them half finished though, they looked sad just handing on my wall for months on end so down they came. I'm still hoping to finish them when I've brought more supplies, probably next summer when it's more appropriate weather for bare legs. So, here's what happened to create these bad boys: I cut the initial jeans into shorts (Seemed like the obvious first step...) then scrunched them into a ball tied together with elastic bands and dyed them with pink dye, I then frayed the bottoms and turned them up before starting the part which is still in the process of happening, I un-stitched part of the back pocket and started filling it with studs. It was going well, until I ran out of studs. But here they are anyway, still in the process of becoming the 'seriously cool shorts' I hoped for. Obviously, as anybody from England could probably guess I have not been wearing them out without tights, but for the sake of the pictures my house is definitely warm enough to brave the bare legs. Love and stuff x

Studs...

It's been a while again, but I have something so show you! I'm getting really into studs at the moment, and customising my clothes. Usually I stop with cutting the neck or sleeves of a t-shirt or the bottom off a skirt but I decided to experiment with it a bit more recently and I pierced studs around the coller of my shirt. I used a shirt I 'borrowed' of my dad a while back (hope you don't mind!) and took the studs of an old studded belt; It was much easier than I thought it was going to be as the studs pierced the fabric so easily, the only trouble I had was making sure they were all straight, but I thought it was successful, it makes a simple shirt look so much more interesting, but it's just as easy to wear. What do you guys think? Also, I think the shirt was from Tesco if anybody was wondering.Love and stuff x
