Hey, lovelies!

A little while back I spent the afternoon shooting some outfit photos. I kept a few of the back for a rainy day, but then proceeded to change my hair, and I simply forgot all about them. 

Whilst flicking through my photo folders last night, I came across them and figured I would post them today before I forget about them again. 

Hat - Primark
Cross Top - George @ Asda (DIY)
Jacket - Charity Shop
Disco Pants - Glamorous
Boots - Ebay

Scarf - ??

Tank top - Primark

Jacket - Unwritten Hollywood

Disco Pants - Glamorous

Shoes - New Look

It's really weird seeing me wearing those shoes. They're now dead and gone, all chewed up by Mr.Bug. Problem is, now I don't own one single pair of pumps. Hurry Christmas, I need to do shopping for myself! Haha. 

I'd totally planned on filming a couple of beauty videos today, but I seem to have had an allergic reaction to something and my skin is as dry as a desert.

Can you believe it's the 11th already?

A DIY Jacket With Tons Of Different Options bleach | charity shop | coat | custom | denim | diy | dye | ebay | fun | hobby | jacket | metal | studs | thrifting | tie dye | when flowers fall | whenflowersfall | winter

Hi my lovelies!

Now you guys know that I am a little DIY mad. So, roughly a month ago I started working on a new project and I can finally share it with you! 

Below I have written all of the steps I took to create my masterpiece.

Hope you like it!  

- I started off with my £6 denim jacket. I found this one in a charity shop.

-I then used several elastic bands and 'tied' the material into bunches

- After placing the jacket in the bath, I added thick bleach straight from the bottle and left it for an hour.

- Onvce I was happy with the result, I filled the bath with enough water to cover the jacket. By doing this you create a bleach bath. I did this to fade the colour of any of the denim that had not been touched by the neat bleach.

IF YOU LIKE, YOU CAN LEAVE YOU JACKET LIKE THIS. (OPTION ONE)

- A few days later I decided to add some colour.
- I hung the jacket on a hanger, placed it on the washing line in my garden and used a purple a pink dye to fill in some of the white patches.
- I left my jacket to dry and then I put it in the washing machine to wash out the excess dye. I always find, by leaving the dye to dry into the fabric, you get more of a strong colour.
THIS IS OPTION TWO AND YOU CAN LEAVE IT HERE. YOU CAN ALSO YOU AN ARRAY OF DIFFERENT COLOURS!



- My last little modification included studs, of course. I purchased mine from ebay. £2 for 200 and they came within 3 weeks from China. (you must plan ahead if you have a time limit.)
There are a huge variety of studs, spikes and other adornments you could use to fancy up any piece of clothing.
THIS IS OPTION THREE

I am so, so happy with how my jacket turned out. I'm just waiting for some ideal weather to wear it. 

I'm currently on the hunt for another jacket because I have the DIY bug now. 

Let me know if you guys try any of this! I'd love to see what you come up with.

Hello my lovelies!

I've finally managed to get online!! If you follow me on Twitter then you will already know that BT doesn't connect our phone line until Wednesday, and it seems the the BTFON/Openzone around here is absolutely shocking! At first we managed to connect and log in perfectly, but the past few days have been hell and we have barely been able to get anything done! 

Instagram this week has been full of photos of my purple hair, freshly juiced fruit juice and a little sneak peek of a DIY coming soon. Well, I say soon, but if I'm completely honest it will be up as soon as I have some pennies to finish it. So far, it's half way there and looking fab. I just can't wait to share it with you all. I've enjoyed doing it so much that I now want to start a web store creating one off pieces to sell to you guys? Good idea? Or are there plenty of wonderful people who do that already? 

If I were to do it, I don't think it would be sorted until the new year, hopefully by then money won't be as tight and I can splurge on plenty of DIY-ing goodies.

Like I said before, if I'm not about too much until Wednesday then you know why. This weekend has certainly made me realise how much Liam and I rely of the interwebs for both work and hobbies. 

Hope you all had a cracking weekend! 

Obsessed with - Tie Dye bedding | cloths | curtains | depression | dye | dying | fashion | interior | mood | my obsessions | obsession | purple | style | tie dye | when flowers fall | whenflowersfall

Yes, this is something I never thought would happen, but I have become obsessed.

Tie dye clothes, bedding, bags, I want it all! 

It started a few weeks back when I cut and bleached some denim shorts, ok so it's not quite tie dying, but since then I've wanted to dye everything. I recently dyed my bedroom curtains (if you have been following me on instagram you would have seen the various stages,) and now I'm looking into tie dying my bedding. I figured it would be cheaper to do it myself than to buy new ones anyway. Although, I did see the most perfect bed set on ebay the other day, if only it hadn't of been £55!!

I'm currently on the hunt for some reasonably cheap plain white duvet covers, so if you know of somewhere I could get some please let me know. I'm going to hunt around the charity shops at the weekend, so hopefully I'll have some luck then. 

Clothes wise, I'm just sitting here wishing I had the money to splurge. I would totally do more fashion posts if my wardrobe wasn't so dire. When I first started struggling with my depression my style seemed to be effected. I started to dress really drab and plain, my hair got dyed back to brunette and I didn't have the confidence to pull off the kind of clothes I loved. But now I'm feeling so much better, my old style is re-appearing. I just wish I hadn't of thrown away the clothes I thought I would never wear again.

So what obsessions do you guys have that seem to be a little unrealistic?

I guess we always want things that are just out of our reach. 

Hope you are well.
