The husband used to wear wife beaters under all of his shirts… and yes, I know that term sounds so horrifying now, but growing up wearing them, I never thought twice about the name! So from now on, I’ll refer to them as ribbed tanks… Anyway, he rarely wears them anymore and many of them …
A few months ago I saw this cute lace accented flare dress that reminded me of a cheerleading skirt and thought I’d DIY it up with a stretch jersey dress… and then when I finally got around to doing it I didn’t have a dress that would work for the look so I found a …
I fell in love and pinned these cute sweet heart ankled jeans a year ago and it just occurred to me now to do a quick DIY for them, which I’m sure has already been done because it’s super simple, but I wanted a pair and I thought you might too. Because my jeans were …
A few months ago I stumbled upon a loose, oversized open back sweater with bows tied down the back and promptly put it on DIY to-do list… I saved it on my desktop for months but of course I can’t find the photo anywhere now and wonder why I didn’t add it to my DIY …
Read This… When I saw Erin Fetherston’s Sealed with a Kiss Collection for Spring/Summer 2013, more specifically, the kiss print Patricia Pant {sold for $195} I HAD TO MAKE A PAIR! They are just so cute I can’t stand it, and just in time for Valentine’s Day! Because I am an impatient creature and have …
Years ago I used to make little lingerie/pajama sets of tanks and underwear with ruffles – you can see some of them here, along with a DIY for the ruffle boy shorts & bikinis… but I always used ribbed wife-beater style tank tops rather than spaghetti strap tanks. I’ve had this pretty vintage lace trim …
I love the idea of wearing a bustier on the outside rather than as an undergarment… I suppose Madonna gets all credit for such inspirations but with the added lace halter, it really feels more Old Hollywood Glamour than Like a Virgin. I ended up using a simple black satin bustier I had lying around …
The people from Sharpie so kindly sent me their newest invention, the Sharpie Stained Fabric Marker and asked that I create something with it. I thought instead of drawing a picture of something specific, I would try to create a print using a stencil. Lace came to mind and when I did a test run …
I began this project at the end of September 2010 …got a shoulder done and realized just how time consuming it actually was. I worked on it Sundays during football through the end of October but then the Holidays hit and I haven’t had a second to revisit the project since {especially knowing there was …

begin with an unflattering skirt preferably in a jersey knit * I don’t doubt these skirts will come back in style, and while it does hit at the right point of my knee to flatter my leg, there’s too much going on around the waist, which is supposed to sit on the hips = unflattering. …
Rihanna image source …T by Alexander Wang bra top I originally chose the pink tank because I thought it would stand out best for this tutorial but I kind of love how it turned out. I actually had a few of these tops in the 90’s by Calvin Klein and wore them under my school …
Voila! …to be honest, I wish the roll on top was a bit larger. I may actually do this again once I find the perfect sweater …because I LOVE IT! …I rolled/stitched the tops of the cut-off arms & made leg warmers. I. hate. waste. & I. love. leg warmers. * The shorts are from …
