Dress: Marshalls | Necklace: eFoxcity c/o I’ve been loving maxi dresses for a while now as they are the perfect go to when you’re in a rush and need to put something on quick. I found this dress at my local Marshalls for under $20 bucks and have loved it since I put it on in the change room. With the short-sleeves, higher neckline, slim fit and a sexy slit on the side it’s defiantly going to be one of my go-to’s for this…

I got this jacket from one of my moms friends and I fell in love with the leather accents to the pockets. It was slightly to big for me, so just like this DIY I took in the sides and arms a bit. For this DIY I was inspired by all the army/green jackets that I’ve been seeing especially as Zara and H&M that have beautiful gem touches on them. Using my left over gems that the wonderful people at Boohoo sent me,…

Overall Skirt: Billabong | Tube top: old | Flats: Dolce Vita This week I showed you Rihanna wearing a stylish overall look, so I thought I would share the pair of overalls I have. I brought my overall skirt back when I was living in Australia for school and since I can’t throw any clothes away it’s always been in my closet and I’m glad I kept it now. I paired mine with a tube top since the waist is low on it and wearing…

Mark how much you want to take in the arm, pin along those lines and sew. Cut off the excess material if needed. Next is to take in the sides, do the same thing as the arms – mark, pin and sew, cut of excess…

This is an old jacket that my mom had stored away for ages and was about to throw out! With a few couple steps, I turned it into a new Jean Vest for myself. First I started up using a seam ripper and taking off the sleeves. Hem the arms if you want a cleaner edge. Take your fabric and cut out an outline of the area you want to cover. Make sure you leave about half an inch more on all edges…

Shirt: H&M | Vest: Forever 21 | Purse: Steve Madden | Pants: Old Navy | Flats: DKNYI had been looking for a faux fur vest for awhile now so you can image how excited I was when I spotted this one at Forever 21 just last week. I have seen others but they are so fluffy and big that they just don’t work on my 5’2 body. My favourite part of the vest was the hood and pockets to keep you extra warm…

I finally got around to making my very first video DIY, and what better DIY to begin with then something that is Sex and the City related! I’m already obsessed with the new show The Carrie Diaries, probably because I was already a fan of Sex and the City. What I love about the show so far is that they are keeping to the roots of the original series. So without further delay here is my DIY for the infamous Carrie Diaries Purse!…
