vintage leather jacket
Posted: August 7, 2011 Filed under: clothes, fashion | Tags: clothes, fashion, styles Leave a commentJust before I went on my short holidays, I’ve started sorting out my stuff – things I need to get rid off before October (THE date!). Somewhere in the depth of my boxroom (or rather ‘boxwardrobe’) I found a vintage leather jacket.
It’s really vintage – from about 25 years ago, and was bought by my parents and never really worn (!) so the quality is overwhelming. Sadly it’s way too big for me and I have to sell it 😦
But still – it’s a great find and I hope someone will embrace it. Wonder what more is waiting for me? And what treasures do you have in your own boxroom? 😉
DIY: friendship bracelets
Posted: August 1, 2011 Filed under: DIY, fashion | Tags: DIY, fashion 1 CommentRecently, I do like million things at once, trying to handle them all the best I can (yes, I try to defend me being super late in posting this. Hope it works.).
For the past, I think three or four days, I did a few DIY friendship bracelets, as they are coming back to fashion world (well, they never actually were off, as always on top in hippie and bohema circles). You can see them in the photos below (I am really sorry about poor quality of photos – I only have a mobile camera right now).
Friendship bracelets were on top when I was in an elementary school, about ten years ago (whoooa, how time flies!). I did a few back then, but as a child got bored quickly, trend passed and I haven’t really thought about it anymore.
It was just a week ago when I found out when they come from. Friendship bracelets are orginally bracelets made by Indians (native American tribes), and there’s a believe that once you wrap one around your friend’s wrist and think a wish, it comes true after the bracelet is worn off (takes time, but if it works, it’s totally worth waiting 😉 ). Are you gonna try? 🙂
I will sell those, made by me (about two more to come), at allegro, but you can email me if you want to buy them (also you can request better quality photos, taken with a camera, from Thursday). They costs £1 each (plus shipping costs, which shoudn’t be much as they are light. I use post to ship.).
