 cut-out tee: DIY | shorts: F21 | JC-inspired boots: Primadonna

this top is my sister's and has been sitting on the closet taken for granted so i took it out and renew it into something i've been wanting to have the past few weeks. i cut out the arm hole and added those studs to give it an edgier look in contrast to its peace-sign print in smileys. also, i put those green zipper at the back for a little surprise effect. 

anyway if you guys are wearing casual and simple outfit and wanted to give it an oomph, you can wear heels and accessorize a bit just like what i did here.

DIY | white or black?

 so i made this DIY for my sister's 18th birthday (you can check it out on adele's blog here). bought a ready-to-wear plain white bustier top at F21 along with the black one below and just did the bead works myself. when she wore it, it had medium size safety pins on both sides. but i had to remove them before it was sent for laundry because i was anticipating the pins to rust and i dont want to ruin the material. 

at first, i really did not have any plans on putting on some beads on this one because i want to leave it as it was. but i got bored last sunday so i took out my extra silver beads and sew them. i know i'm fickle-minded but i hope i won't end up removing them one by one. haha

so what do you think?
