D.I.Y. Skirt!

This is probably the first thing I ever made that I'm able to wear around without looking like a big art project failure. I'm so proud of it... even though it took me around 3 hrs to make it (damn freaking brocade fabric doesn't like to be ironed very well). The pictures suck since we didn't get to take the pictures until the sun was almost down and so we hurried up to the rooftop garage of my apartment to get some decent lighting. I will never underestimate the skills of a seamstress ever again. I also seem to be in the habit of wearing a bunch of f21 stuff. I swear my closet is like 50% f21, 25% modcloth/asos/topshop/lulus, and 25% vintage. That's probably because there's no H&M or Zara near my grasp. Anyone want to ship me that leather zara jacket? I need it in my life.
skirt: DIY, top: f21, shoes: f21, bag: leonello borghi, necklace: f21

  4. that's very cool about your boyfriend being a rock producer and i'm glad you liked 'ghost town'. the rest of the album is a bit different... a bit more indie at times, modern rock at others, crosses several genres.

    i love the skirt! i think it turned out great! i sew, but not very well. i'm trying to perfect the skill. my main issue is that i buy the patterns and they never fit correctly, so i'm constantly cutting them down until it's just a mess. :(
