D-I-Y Summer Fashion

I absolutely love D-I-Y fashion! Not only cause the process almost always calls for a fun experience but also for the sheer exclusivity of the end product. Thus for obvious reasons the thought of doing a post enlisting quick d-i-y fashion tips apt for this season seemed rather interesting. So here are a few ideas that you can easily incorporate and have fun with this summer!

1) Shorts: Shorts top almost every girls ‘must-haves’ this season. But lets wear the boring old denim or cotton shorts with a twist!

♥ Raid your knick-knacks and you are sure to find an array of embellishments like sequins, lace, crochet, etc. Work these creatively on your denim shorts to create a whole new avatar.

♥ Buttons from your old tops and shirts? Do not throw them away. They can go a great way in jazzing up the back pockets of your cotton shorts.

♥ The magic that you can work with the snap of a scissor is beyond wow! A bit of patience and skill is all you need to rip your shorts and add that oomph factor.

2) Brooches: I love brooches as they instantly add charm to almost anything you pin it onto. A great way to jazz up the most basic of your casuals and accessories, brooches call for a great d-i-y.

♥ Pin on a large floral or psychedelic brooch to your tote bag, and you are set to create a statement this season.

♥ Delicate brooches when teamed with  jackets or dresses will glam them instantly.

3) Flip-Flops: Though not a great fan of flip-flops personally, when d-i-y-ed they can give even the most stylish of footwear a run for its money. Also they score high on the comfort level this season.

♥ Think pearls, sequins, studs, shimmer…and set out to break all rules.

♥ To add an ethnic touch to your flip-flops, choose from embroidered borders. There is a mind boggling range available in the market and you will be spoiled for choice.

4) Head Gears: I love hair accessories! With the summer setting in, smart d-i-y head gears will not only help you stay in style but also combat the scorching heat of the sun.

♥ You might want to put away your stoles and scarves considering the rising temperature, but think again. A printed or block colored stole can double up as a statement head band and get you the right attention.

♥  Go through your accessory box. The old junk that you don’t see yourself wearing in future can be glued to your clips and hairbands to give its existence a whole new meaning.

So what do you think about this post?
