DIY Lace Skirt

Hey Lovelees!






Spring has finally arrived, bringing some much needed sunshine and warm weather! I for one am in the mood to finally wear pastels and airy skirts again. This DIY is inspired by the pretty lace skirts seen on Burberry's spring runway. I think it's fun to have a little skin showing, and the lace offers the perfect amount of peekaboo action.

For my skirt, I followed this tutorial from A Pair & A Spare, except I sewed two layers of fabric - the lace plus a thin jersey for the lining. I loved the way it turned out, the pink and blue/grey make a beautiful and delicate combination. What do you guys think??

Thanks for reading, happy spring!

DIY Toggle Ring

Hey Lovelees!


Today's tutorial is super simple, but the result is a minimal and delicate ring. It is so chic and easy to wear, you'll reach for it every morning. I know I do!

Materials:

- thin chain
- toggle set
- 2 small jump rings

- pliers

Instructions:

1/ Wrap the chain around your finger and cut the appropriate length.

2/ Open one jump ring, attach one end of the chain and the ring of the toggle. Close the ring.

3/ Open the other ring and attach the other end of the chain to the bar of the toggle.





And that's it! Just wrap the ring around your finger and close the toggle. Stack this unique ring with other jewelry or wear it on it's own. The possibilities are endless!
