Ombre (Diy)
Top: Shapely; Pants: Forever 21 (DIY); Bag: Ross Dress for Less; Heels: Nine West
Hi everyone!! So this is going to be a quick post...i just wanted to show you guys one of my first (fairly) successful diy projects...my ombre jeans. Now you may have seen fashionistas in this style of jeans alot recently ..(i mean within the last couple months)....its so funny to me because i actually owned pants like these several years ago ..back when i was in high school. I remember because i wore very similar ones (bought as is) on my 16th or 17th birthday (i have a photo) ..problem is i gave those away decades ago because i wasnt even thinking they might come back in style but apparantly they have. Suffice it to say, I wasnt about to buy them again so i decided to scour the thrift store for some cheap pants ($3.5) for a fun diy project and above you can see the result.
Now you can do this to anything- jackets, shorts (my next diy) , dresses, skirts etc etc. What do you need? ...actually its very simiple and you may have all you need right there in your home...bleach, a shallow bowl and a pair of gloves. I also used colour remover that i purchased at walmart. What do you think of my ombre jeans? Also, this is my latest post on chicisimo (here)..feel free to check out my page and vote if you like it ..you dont have to join to be able to vote and if you are already a member just leave me a comment i always vote back..thank you
kisses :) |

Hi everyone, so i am very happy with the visits to my blog, your beautiful comments and ofcourse the new followers..i always follow back so dont hesitate to leave me a comment with a link to your blog and i will sure to become a member.
About the look: I wore this outfit so long ago .. i hestitated to publish it because its not my favourite.This outfit was actually inspired by a fashionista on chicisimo (im so sorry i dont remember her name)but ofcourse i tweeked it and made it my own by adding my favourite thrift item -the beautiful multicoloured clutch (just $2.50...crazy!!!!!) and the silver heels. It was one of those outfits, that to me, looked better in person (the top is brighter and prettier) than on picture also by the time i took this picture i was a bit disheveled ....looking at it now its not so bad..not bad at all..what do you think of this look?

About the look: This dress is one of my favourite things ever. I purchased it in Jamaica (when i was still living there) for less than $10 US dollars and i just love it...it is soo pretty..i've worn it on and off camera approxiametely 10 times...lol,....kidding,...about 5 times ( for me thats alot). Hold on, this is not to say that i do not wear things twice, three times or even four..its just that i try to wear everything i own atleast once...because i thrift so often (atleast 3 times a month) i have quite a few things that i try to wear as soon as possible especially if they are seasonall items; doing this means that i wear something once or twice and then it ends up at the back of the closet until i come across it and fall in love all over again (which i almost always do). Dont worry, i recycle...not only do i have to but i want to..im not wasting my money buying things to wear once then throw it away or donate it..even though im all for donating the things you dont want anymore.
Anyway (boy im talking alot today huh?...lol), because i am so obsessed with shoes right (i was never a shoe fanatic) ive been online trying to find some cute pairs to maybe add to my limited collection..but boy oh boy..i started asking myself this question that i will now pose to you: How much are you willing to spend on shoes? i know common rhetoric in the fashion world is that you should invest in your accessories particularly your shoes but really how much is too much? ladies i would love to hear your opinion on this? im looking forward to your opinions please
