Do-It-Yourself Fashion

3 Comments 29 June 2009

While I’m much too busy lazy to actually do anything about it, I’ve always loved the idea of do-it-yourself fashion. Unfortunately–or maybe fortunately–the height of my forays into hand-crafted apparel and accessories peaked right around the time of neon puffy paints and Jams shorts.

However, my generosity compels me to share some of the best DIY tutorials from talented bloggers across the web. From bib necklaces to Miu Miu-inspired minis, here are some great ways to further personalize your look, glitter not included:


From “The Miu Miu inspired skirt tutorial”, Kingdom of Style

From “DIY: Studded jeans and more”, Miss at la Playa


From “How to: Scissor a baggy shirt into a bitchin’ top”, Cheap JAP

From “Glamourai DIY/Candied Crumbcatcher”, The Glamourai (cover girl for Style Sample Magazine issue 2!)

From “Welcome to my Bleach Party”, Femme Rationale (Style Sample Magazine issue 1 cover girl! Hmmm…is there a pattern here?)

Have you done any interesting DIY projects lately? Share so I can get all excited and then not do it!

  1. Hey Tamia! Lucrecia of Fashion is Poison just blogged about her lustworthy DIY destroyed jeans here: http://fashionispoison.blogspot.com/search?q=jeans

    My last DIY was a beaded vest which I sacraficed my right hand for. Definitely don’t try anything like that.

    Any hints as to what might come up in the next mag issue..?;)

  3. Tamia says:

    I saw that vest and it was hot. Who needs fully functioning use of their right hand, anyway?

    Just getting started on the next issue…there’s so much to do, I’m tired just thinking about it!

Welcome!


Hello, I'm Tamia. I like clothes, shoes, the interwebs, ice cream, design, dancing, pretending to know what I'm talking about, big cities, pretty pictures, technology, creative people, foreign languages, eating, typography, indie magazines, and telling people what to do. Not necessarily in that order.
More about me.
