DIY Blogger Discovery - Love Aesthetics

Stumbled upon the most amazing blog this morning that I just had to share with you. Ivania of Love Aesthetics has the coolest vintage style, and a whole cache of utterly inspired (and simple) DIYs. Nothing seems too difficult for her! I am particularly inspired by her two tone silk shirt, her knotted tees and bolt jewellery, the white branch clothing rack (amazing!) and the zipper jacket. Head over to her blog and take some time to enjoy its clean and simple lines, Ivania's covetable style and her ability to pull off just about any colour lipstick.

 Btw, how gorgeous are the tan leather pants?

DIY in Bodkin ss11 Lookbook

Came across this gorgeous lookbook for Bodkin on the Wildfox blog, and loved just about every image. The cute pastels and african style silver jewellery looks amazing, and kind of makes me think of what it would be like to go on an african safari with Maria from Vanilla Scented. So many little details that inspire me to DIY. Check it out.

DIY some rope/leather straps on a top or dress by attaching and tying like a bow like so:

Layer a khaki jacket or sew matching flaps onto the underside for an extra detail.

Make yourself a halter style dress out of a mans button down shirt.

Shorten a skirt by tying it in a knot at the front.
