OOTD 20/05/2013 Viva La Midi

 skirt - missguided | shoes - glassons | top - primark 

Hey guys, just a quick outfit of the day for yas. Had a busy day today, ran  around town running errands and spend half the day in the city library fining coursework. It sounds sad but I actually think I'm starting to like writing essays! (mad I know) Too many late nights I think. Anyway, now it's all done and dusted, I can finally get a good nights kip.

I love love love midi skirts, so I just had to pick one up from missguided. I wasn't sure about the length at first but when it arrived I was sold. The only thing is I'm going to have to learn how to walk in it, i'm not used to walking around it long skirts! haha.

DIY| Cut Off Denim Jacket

I'm forever cutting up my clothes because I get tired of them really quickly  so as a penniless teenager I try and rework, make do and mend haha

The only things you'll need for this tutorial is your bog standard unpicker.

and of course a denim jacket.

  Step 1| Slip the sharp edge underneath a stitch and pull until it snaps

Step 2| then carry on unpicking, it should look like this

and this is what you should be left with.

Step 3| Repeat on other sleeve

and that's all it takes! (note you can tidy up the edges if you like but i prefer the frayed look)

Then you can slip it over a leather jacket, or a denim shirt for some extra edge. ;)

Trend Report - Crop Tops

white crop| garcon crop| wallpaper crop|fresh crop| kaleidoscope crop

I'm a massive fan of crop tops, (which doesn't go down too well with my parents), I love how fun and flirty they can be. Now if you're not sure about baring your midriff this spring/summer you can minimize the flesh by paring them with a high-waisted skirt, high-waisted shorts, or even a midi skirt. Check out motel for more crop tops, they have some incredible ones on offer so check them out. Anyway festival season is looming so i'd snap some up quick before the sun runs away again. :)
