WOTTONCOOL

First there was the pic from the Sart, then Pinks found the Bebaroque tights from theshopfloorproject.com, which got me thinking about how I could diy these tights.

Then I found a post by The Clothes Horse about her drawing peacock designs on her own tights, and I immediately whipped out my new yellow tights and fabric marker and started doodling!

I wore black tights under my yellow tights so that my skin wouldn’t be stained by the fabric marker. But in the end, it kinda still did, though it was nothing that some soap and water couldn’t rid!

Here’s a close up of the completed project! (My dad just walked past and thought it was a tattoo.) The lines are not as clean as the real thing, but I think I’m okay with the sketchiness of it (:

Pardon my sleepy face and cheesy stances!

Top: Topshop singlet, Giordano Ladies hooded cape cardiga
Bottoms: Mango tailored shorts
Tights: Yellow DIY tights that I just made today!
Accessories: River Island handcuffs necklace, This Fashion faux gem choker, Marc by Marc Jacobs bracelet watch

I think I shall embark on the fringe tights next. I should be able to sew them on!

Some designs and prints on tights and leggings come off as extremeeely tacky, but this one is really cool!

It makes me want to be a canvas too!!!!!!!!!!

I remember when my godmother used to knit and crochet vest, tops and little pouches for me… when I was in primary school and didn’t feel that I was too cool/grown-up for such things yet (: They came in the sweetest pastels and most intricate of details.

I also remember learning the basic of basics of knitting a year or two ago from my art teacher, together with Pinks…

The only think I don’t remember, is wearing them recently!

Fashion.st recently featured Nina, who just has a knack at wearing knits! She doesn’t wear just one knitted piece, she wore up to three at a go!

And if you were visualizing a fluffy bubble of some sort

Ah, I shall put my knitwear experiment outfit on hold until the weather decides to be nice to all of us. I’ll just take this time to stock up on knit, heh
