DIY Summer Color Belt

Hello there! My birthday month of June is here! I am quite excited to add another year to my age.. Haha.. Not really. = P I've been spending so much of my time outdoor to fully embrace one of the most simplest, yet beautiful gifts we are given, Nature. I was inspired by all the vibrant and colorful hues that comes with summer and came up with this easy way to add a pop of color to your solid belts. I love this look because it is very inexpensive to create and it's also a nice way to revamp your belts for the coming season. It's actually versatile enough for any season.


(Sorry for the quality of this video, I'm not really sure what happened to it. Also, I meant to say DIY, not DYI.. LOL! Didn't catch it until I already uploaded. Haha..)

What you'll need is:
An old belt, mine is from Forever 21
Craft threads, mine are from Michael's
Scissors



I hope you guys enjoy this tutorial and have fun re-creating your belts! = )

Style Tip #2: Maxi Skirt to Summer Dress



When it comes to clothing reconstruction, the possibilities are limitless! I was playing around with a granny maxi skirt that I got from the thrift store to see what I could come up with. I was able to turn it into a halter hi-low dress with just a ribbon, pin, and belt. This look is very boho chic and pretty. My husband says he likes the skirt as a dress a whole lot more. I think I do too! ;)

Leggings w/ Peek-a-boo Lace



Leggings are one of my most favorite clothing items! I think every girl must have a pair of black leggings as part of their closet essentials. They're so comfortable, easy to dress up or down, and I doubt they'll ever go out of style!

I've come to realize that every time I wear a pair of leggings, it's always been solid black. I was determined to come up with a new look for your everyday leggings that can be incorporated into different outfits, adding life and texture.

I've seen numerous ripped leggings when paired correctly may be flattering, while other times often come off a bit trashy. Because the lace is under the rips, there is no bare skin showing which takes the look to a whole different level. The combination of solid and lace textures bring an edge to your everyday leggings.



I hope you've enjoyed my tutorial. Have a great day! ;)
