You will need:
White thread and needle
Plastic pearls
Simple sewing technique
This created a good starting point. It is time consuming but a form of therapy, for me.
As you progress the form can take any shape you desire, I went with a more abstract
Flow to use less beads but creating an over all effect
Then came the classy part of the outfit
The men's white shirt that is also appearing on the style blogs as must have
Next I found this long cotton jersey skirt that had simple design
I wanted the final look to have a glamour feel but still casual enough to sport in the day
Finding this hand sewn creation made of satin polyester circa 1960s, was the perfect match
It just need some updating. So I turn it around and made the back the front of the skirt
Folded the hem at the back slit and with very simple stitches created a geometrical element to this piece
The shoes were important they had to be flats, since the runway shows and designers are obsessed with flats, I choose a small wedge in white with neon green as accent
The finished look all for $25. Yes it's possible
All items were selected from local Goodwill stores.
Till the next time, I'm off to hunt for more GOODS!
