DIY Inspiration: Wide Stretch Waist Belt by Hache



I'm not entirely sure how I would go about making this belt but I think it could be done. I have a thing for snap-closure elastic belts and I love the pony hair detail, but not the price tag on this baby.

Any ideas? I have a similar wide elastic belt but it is plain so I think I could just sew on the detail.

It is available at Kick Pleat for $188

DIY inspiration: Bless Suspenderrip tank

I've been into D.I.Y. fashion for as long as I can remember, even before I was really into "fashion." There was no way my parents were going to take me anywhere to buy clothes so I had to work with the hand-me-downs, thrift store finds, and my mother's collection of wack dresses and coats from the 80s (in Korea).

These days, I do more fashion research and ebay searches than D.I.Y. projects, so my mind is teeming with ideas and frustratingly, I have no time to implement them. However, I thought I would start posting D.I.Y. inspiration so that I could have an archive of projects for that magical rainy day when I'm armed with zippers, fox tails, a sewing machine and nothing to do but re-haul my closet!

This Bless shirt seems ridiculously easy to make and is also a very simple (but awesome) idea.
step one: attach suspenders to a tank top
step two: you're done! painless, wasn't it?
