T-Shirt to Skirt : DIY Refashion

I've been doing a ton of projects lately and wanted to share this one with you! For this I used a plain gray t-shirt and transformed it to a skirt! Check out the before and after picture then follow the easy directions to make your own!

T-Shirt Refashion by flairbybrandi featuring silk scarves

DIRECTIONS and SUPPLIES:

For this project you will need:
* An Old or New T-Shirt slightly oversized
*Scissors
*Needle/Thread, Sewing Machine, or Double Sided Fabric Tape (the fabric tape is just like sewing!)
*Scarf, Ribbon, or belt

Super easy directions:
1) Cut the top of the t-shirt across the sleeve area and slightly up at an angle as pictured above.
2) Once your shirt is cut fold down 2 times in 1-2 in sections.
3) After your shirt is folded there will be an upside down "V" on both sides of the actual shirt hem.
4) Sew or use iron on fabric bond to hem the bottom of the fold across the front and back. Leave the sides where the "V" is open.
5) Take a scarf, ribbon, or belt and feed through the "V" sections until they meet on one side.
6) Put on your new skirt and tie or fasten your belt!

That's it! How easy was that? This project took under 30 minutes and didn't cost me a penny! I hope you enjoyed this DIY! Let me know how yours turns out!




 

Day to Night : Quick and Easy Transformations

I love doing day to night looks. Some of us don't have time to do a complete outfit overhaul from our day look to our night look. Here are a couple easy changes from a day to a night look.

The first look I used jeans, a ruffle tank, and a blazer for a business casual look. Then turned it into a flirty and fun night out look. The second look is more business professional to sophisticated evening.

You can easily transform your look by adding pieces or taking pieces away. Most of the time your evening clutch bag will fit inside your day bag! Simply taking off a blazer and changing shoes can make a huge impact!  

I will be doing a day to night makeup tutorial soon! Check back and don't miss it!

Happy Tuesday : )
