DIY : Studding the boots

I found this (ugly) blue, studded belt in a thrift store recently; a studded belt is emo, but the stuuuuuddds, very useful ! First I considered putting them on my Dr Martens, but the leather is way too thick there for the little hooks, so instead I used the Joe Sanchez boots I wore in a post here. I always found them a bit too boring, so they were the perfect pair to turn into a DIY project. And here is the result (and the working shots) !

Knit Me a Sweater

Went out with my bf today to get him some knitwear!

Special Post

Besides the fact that I love playing around with clothing, I also love music. My bf recently finished his guitarsolo for a musical project, and here is the result! I'm totally in love with this piece!

Oliver & Kira

I was just browsing through StylelikeU., and came across this wonderfully weird couple, Kira & Oliver. This isn't my style or anything, but it almost felt like a fairy tale to me when I watched them and listened to their story :-) It's cool that such people exist in the world when everything sometimes just looks the same... Inspiring. Reminds you to look for that magic...

Enjoy

Winter Blues

Finally found some time to take some pics! I was in a hurry today and just threw this on, 'cause I had my first driving lesson today! What a special feeling, but still got to master the feet-hands-feel-coordination :-p. Parking seems like an impossible thing to do right now! Recently my bf got a new car, hopefully I'll get my hands on that some day ;-).
This blue vest (or what is it you call it), was the velvet item I made, and the one I mentioned in the previous post. I like velvet in general, but one nasty thing about it, is the horrible amount of static electricity you get wearing it. That certainly isn't an advantage when the whole lower part of the thing crawls up your back and there you are, in your leggings, unintentionally exposed, and you realize you've been walking this whole time with your ass hanging out. Oh well, go velvet clothing!

Have a great weekend!

While everyone does posts on the American Gold spring collection, which is very interesting, I 'd still like to mention some of their cool FW 10 pieces! Funny thing today, I was working an an item, and it's a velvet, sort of, cardigan, and now I see the velvet pieces in this collection, ironic!
