When putting together outfits to share for Thrifty Thursday I usually need look no further than the fab collection of second hand, DIY’d eco-fashion that fills my wardrobe however this Silk or Satin Loveliness theme had me stumped as the only silk item in my wardrobe is this too-hot-for-August refashioned dress.
But then I remembered a tacky satin top that had been lurking in my stash for far too long so I grabbed my seam ripper & sewing gear and got to work transforming it into something I’d actually wear:
Get the scoop behind the thrifty outfit + the tutorial for my fab upcycled necklace below:
Sunglasses (had for years) €0 – Top (thrifted & refashioned) €1 – Necklace (upcycled) €0 – Scarf (thrifted) €0.20 – Jeans (thrifted) €1.50 – Bracelet (gift) €0 – Wedges (had for years) €0
Total cost: €2.70
Create your own fab phone cord necklace with my oldie but goodie video tute:
I so could not get away with that outfit, but as always, you rock it!
Did you have to do much to the top?
Aw shucks! Thanks Alice
The top transformation tutorial will be appearing soon…
