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 Style Stalker Leggings

When I saw these Style Stalker leggings on Gala of Am-lul's Closet, I was immediately obsessed. I wracked my brain for a way to DIY them... and I am still thinking about it. You could cut some black trousers out and then stitch them back together using a grommet puncher and leather twine. But I think this one might have to go in the 'too hard basket'. Maybe wishing upon a star for the real thing is in order....

If you want some Style Stalker legging inspiration that won't hurt your brain too much, check these out below. You can either cut them out at the knees, or get really drunk and take a dive on some pavement.

DIY at LFW - Spiked Leggings

The spiked leggings looked amazing when I spotted them in the press room of LFW. They weren't DIY but they looked pretty DIYable. Buy some spikes from Studs and Spikes on Ebay, making sure to get large conical ones that have a screw- attach them to thick opaque tights or leggings.

DIY - Cut out suspender leggings

Another great bit of DIY inspiration from Evil Twin. I love the small details in the lookbooks that get my DIY brain all juiced up! These leggings look like a pretty simple undertaking, in fact I saw a girl at Glastonbury rocking some she has made herself. Grab a pair of dark opaque tights (the thicker the better so they don't rip), put them on and mark with chalk where you would want the 'suspenders' to sit. I would probably make the suspenders thinner and barely hanging on - maybe an inch at the front and back and I would make the cut out a bit more horizontal and higher up the leg - I have a feeling that would make your legs look longer. Take them off and get cutting!

DIY - Skeleton Tights (Inspired by Evil Twin)

vil Twin's new lookbook is bursting with DIY inspiration. Grab an old black pair of tights and put them on (or may be easier to get a friend to put them on so you can access them better), get some chalk/white pen and do an outline of the skeleton and then fill in the outline with white acrylic paint. Or, you could do a stencil with paper and place that on the tights and paint over it with white paint. You could buy them for next to nothing here, but that would defeat the DIY purpose, right?
