Fr Cltch.

I made an oversized faux fur

clutch. It's quite huge and the

inside is stiff due to some foam

board that I put in hahaha.

DIY.

I made this dress myself. It's super simple.

Take a long piece of cloth (1.50 x 2 m)

Fold it in half.Leave slits open on the sides

for your arms to fit through. Cut open the

top for your head to fit through and sew the

rest together. Cut the slits for the skirt part

really big in order to have a more geometric

shape. Et voila. And again, I just do these

things through aptitude. I don't get patterns..

Cut.

what to do with vintage blouses that you no longer wear? Cut em!

Sleeves.

I'm in love with Margiela and when I saw his fingerless gloves my heart skipped a beat. Obviously I can't buy them as I'm participating in

the Free Fashion Challenge and besides that I wouldn't even be able to afford them anyways. So I decided to make them myself with

some black leather that I had lying around. It's super easy to make. I don't do patterns etc. as I was never schooled in that field yet I'm

guessing that my genes hold a certain aptitude to tailoring as there have been a lot of tailors in my family. Thats' why my explanations

are sometimes a bit confusing as I myself don't really know what I'm doing! I hope the visuals are clearer.

_take a piece of leather and wrap it around your arm

_pin the areas that need to be cut off in order to have the shape that you need

_draw a line with garment chalk and cut about 2cm from there just to make sure you don't cut it too small

_fold the top and the bottom inwards

_start stitching

_turn it inside out

_cut a hole where your thumb would stick through

Clutch_

I had a piece of white leather left

over and made it into an extremely

basic clutch. The size is approximately

50 x 20 cm.In the second image you

see a peak of an amazing magazine

that I picked up the other day:

VESTOJ, where the sartorial matters

If you (like me) had never heard of

it before, make sure you pick it up.

I promise that you intellectuals will

drool.

This is an old clutch that

belonged to my mother.

I attached three old rings

to the top (by sewing them

on) and now i'm able to

"clutch" it properly.

Here's my sad ass DIY attempt at Isabel Marants mouthwatering Spring 2010 coats.

What do we think?

credit: me

I love love love the Isabel Marant Spring 2010 fur coats. Unfortunately

I don't have a few $$$$ to buy it so enter a DIY project. No idea how

it's going to turn out but I hope to have it done by tomorrow.

Stay tuned.
