204. DIY Dress



Dress:  DIY/Self Made
Belt:  Vintage
Bag:  Anna Lou of London
Shoes:  H&M
 
Hey loves,
 
This is an outfit I wore on a night out last Thursday so a little late on the up-take, I know! I actually made this dress myself a couple of hours before I was due to go out. I was clearing through my fabrics and found a couple of scraps left of the navy and white houndstooth printed fabric. I have been meaning to do something with it for years however there was barely any of it left so I wasn't sure what to do with it. But on Thursday I really wanted to do something with it and I realised I had some fake white leather left over from my collection so I decided to make a dress and this is basically what I came up with!
 
I literally just had enough fabric so I was worried it wouldn't work but I think it turned out really well :) What do you think? It turned out a little too big and obviously I didn't have time to adjust it so I just put a belt on and hey presto! It created these lovely pleats to create a perfect fit :)
 
I hope you guys like it!

168. Nobody said it was easy




 
Blazer:  Charity Shop
Playsuit:  Primark
Tights:  New Look
Brogues:  New Look
 
Hey lovelies! This is today's outfit, very blue for some reason but I quite like it. I bought this gorgeous blue velvet blazer in a charity shop a few weeks ago and just love it! It is huge on me so I tend to roll up the sleeves, but I quite like the baggy look and I think it works perfectly with this navy playsuit from Primark. I added some texture with the houndstooth tights and kept it simple with my black brogues. I hope you like it!
