[VIDEO] Men’s Shirt Refashioned into Halter Top Dupe
I was inspired by this designer top from Ulla Johnson, while browsing online recently. When I saw the inverted pleat, I immediately thought back to the men’s dress shirt, as you almost always see a box pleat on the back of them. In case you didn’t know, the reverse side of a box pleat is an…

Spring has sprung or so they say! When I think of spring, I think soft hues, florals and lighter layers. That brings me to this once waterfall cardigan (from Hollister). I had a love-hate relationship with it. My twin gave it to me a while back, since she barely wore it (and I could see why)….

What perfect way to end the year than to break out the shinies?! Predictable yes, but when I peeped this once metallic skirt online, I knew I had to have it! I got it at a great price too since it was damaged. I’ve wanted to brave the culotte aka the wanna-be trouser/skirt that everyone…
