Ebay Flat Top Fedora Hat / New Look Necklace / Primark Check Skirt / DIY Boyfriend Shorts / New Look Thin Belt / DIY Ripped Tights / DIY Ebay Leather Jacket / Matalan Bag / Amazon Ankle Heels.
When the winter sun comes out, the DIY ripped tights come out to play! I am getting rather fond of grunge lately and will be experimenting a bit more with it in the coming weeks. This morning I was feeling a bit creative, it was only inevitable that I would end up with a needle and thread plus a pair of scissors in my hands; not forgetting my brother's old pair of jeans. In just a few minutes, these bad boy shorts were born. I have wanted a pair of boyfriend style shorts for a while now but they are rather pricey (you can get them cheap on Ebay from China mind, delivery takes a while to get here though) hence decided to make this pair myself from my brother's old jeans; recycling much?
I did an outfit post a while ago where I first debuted these ripped tights which I also made myself. When your tights are ripped, rip them some more! It is the perfect solution, ripped tights always add a grunge feel to an outfit; instantly making it a bit edgy and daring. Being a student and all, I don't have money to flaunt about and so rely on my hands as the ultimate DIY tool. Teaming them up with a bright coloured check shirt and ankle heels to match, I was channelling my inner grunge self; topping it all off with a fedora hat and leather jacket. I am now bloomin' obsessed with these shorts, they turned out quite okay wouldn't you say? You will be seeing a lot more of them; here's to grungy greatness!

How the bejesus do you get ripped tights to look so great?! Mine always look like an angry cat has been at them. Gorgeous outfit, and I'll have to give them DIY boyfriend shorts a try! Did you use high-waisted jeans or just belt normal ones in?

Love the look and way to recycle! DIY is one of my favorite past times. Plus I'm a fashion student, so that encourages it a lot! I have only posted one DIY so far, though. (http://sineadodessa.blogspot.com/search/label/diy if you want!)
Definitely a big fan of the grunge scene, too.
