STYLE ADVICE: DIY Until You Die

I am the such a fan of DIYing everything and anything. It is such a fun and useful way to express your creativity. Usually, your creation can make a unique statement and what’s better than being able to say, “I made it,” when somebody asks where you bought it? Wearable DIYs are the absolute best, because you can show off your work to the whole world.

I found a Fashionista in my class who was rocking her own DIY and had to share it. She found this white denim jacket and put her own artwork onto it. This is such a great way to express her personal style and creativity. Using your own artwork is perfect to guarantee that nobody else will ever have the same garment. She pairs her jacket with a solid black ensemble, which perfectly brings attention to her jacket. She is sporting a black turtleneck with black jeans. A look like this is a great idea if you’re trying to bring attention to one specific garment. It practically mutes the whole outfit except that piece, and it looks chic at the same time. This Fashionista decided to go edgy with her look, and finished it with these worn-in black booties. All of these elements together work well to convey a one-of-a-kind style.

When dressing in DIY, there are many routes you can take. There is definitely no wrong one to show off your creations. This Fashionista went edgy and chic with her simple all black ensemble and its well-worn pieces that actually send attention toward her artwork. Hopefully her look will inspire you to go out and create, it certainly has for me!
