DIY: How to Make Your Own Muscle Tank (Cut-out Shirt) You usually only see guys at the gym wearing muscle tanks... which are just regular t-shirts with the sleeves cut off. But girls can definitely wear these as well! It spices up your old, plain t-shirts, and you can definitely show off your own muscles without baring it all with just a sports bra. I also think these tanks add a boy-ish tone to your gym outfit, which can be pretty sexy if done right. The photo on the left is your typical muscle tank, and the photo on the right is a modified version. You may want to practice on a shirt you don't care too much about in case you make mistakes. (Before picture) Step 1. Step 2. Step 3. Step 4. Step 5. Step 6. Step 7. Step 8. The two pictures at the top of this post show the shirt with and without these bows. ... and you're done!! I actually chose not to keep the knot on the upper back of the tank top. Continue Reading »

Olivia Palermo, Floral | Olivia Palermo - By Teresa Greenfeld - Every season, we compose our fashion shopping lists; the hottest, the must-haves, the face-social-exile-without-it items. We scour the stores, click endlessly through a bevy of bookmarked shopping sites, and finally, upon a job well done, we begin mentally creating outfits. We picture how great we’ll look in our bright Helmut Lang pants, 3.1 Phillip Lim top, and hot pink CC Skye bag or that Elizabeth and James dress (perfect for those studded Zara sandals). The inevitable problem with this? The trends that top our lists every season often vary so widely, resulting in what I like to call “fashion compartmentalization”. Jacket by Alberta Ferretti, jeans by Paige Premium Denim, handbag by Christian Dior, shoes by Alexander Birman In order to integrate our wardrobes, (and hopefully the accompanying personalities), learning to properly mix and match trends is essential. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

The Hospital Survival Kit for new mothers (with printables) Major life events tend to come in waves sometimes. After graduating from college, it seemed like everyone was getting hitched. I spent that summer working to afford the wedding gifts I needed to buy for the 7 weddings I attended and the 2 bridesmaid dresses I needed to buy for the ones I was in. After the weddings, a little time went by, I got married myself, then those friends whose weddings I went to started having babies And within a month of getting married, I was pregnant myself. After having 2 children at different hospitals, and spending a month and a half on hospital bed rest with my last (you can read more about that lovely experience HERE and HERE), I know there are a few things that new mothers don't necessarily think about packing for their stay. The Hospital Survival Kit - a bag full of those extra things that help make a new mother's stay at the hospital a little more tolerable. Then fill 'er up! Here are some ideas for things to include in the survival kit: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

Cut each slit in half. Tie your slits together all the way down the shirt. Tie your bright, metallic craft ribbon around each knot on the sides of your shirt. Don't forget the sleeves. You might even use craft loops around the neck of your t-shirt. How about criss-crossing craft loops down the side of your t-shirt? And remember to have fun with your cutting.

THE SUN WAS HIGH: DIY // Galaxy Jeans I don't want to enter in a "I liked galaxies before it was cool to like them" monologue, but I've always been obsessed with outer space! My brother and I used to visit the local library and borrow tons of books about galaxies, spaceships and planets. The obsession stuck and now, even my design portfolio is filled with space-inspired pieces. There is something so fascinating and mysterious about coloured clouds, planets and stars... Galaxy print clothes have gained phenomenal popularity over the last three years, but oddly enough, they never made it to the racks of affordable chain stores. This afternoon, I found a pair of old washed out black jeans I wore in high school and I decided to make my own non-pricey galaxy-inspired jeans! You'll need: - A pair of black jeans. - A spray bottle filled with two parts bleach (javel) and one part cold water - Some acrylic paints. - An old toothbrush - A sponge - Little containers/plates to mix the paint 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8.
