DIY: Shred and Destroy!

So I recently posted this on Instagram:
I somehow got this idea from seeing someone's tights ladder (that's soo annoying) and I thought, how cool would it look on a shirt? Making this is also very therapeutic and was fun to do whilst watching tv. 

Also how can I post something tagged #diy without putting up a tutorial?! 

Here we go.

You'll need a shirt with lightweight fabric and scissors.


 You'll need to un-hem the shirt or just cut the bottom off so that the raw edge is showing.
If you start pulling on the fabric where it frays then we can get started. What is basically being done here is unravelling the fabric.
Keep going until you get the desired effect. If you don't want to start from the bottom of the shirt, you could always just stab the shirt in random places and start unravelling from there. Always start from the bottom up and just keep pulling and unravelling. I must warn you that it will not be perfect and there will be holes but hey, that's the whole point. 

Have fun destroying!

Style Investigation: Eva Mendes


Style Crush: Marion Cotillard

Its been a while since we did a style crush sooooo....today I post one >.<

Marion Cotillard red carpet style is nothing short of show stopping. From dazzling dresses to simple silhouettes she always has a fantastic red carpet look that never fails to impress. I love how she keeps her accessories simple and sweet. In 2009 the french actress was chosen to be the face of Dior's 'Lady Dior'  advertising campaign and in July 2010 she appeared on the cover of Vogue.
My favorite look of hers is the vintage look by Dior from the London premier of the 'Dark Night Rises'. I love the combination of the bright yellow, green and red. Plus the belt just ties the whole look together. AHHH I just love it.
