Outfit (Including home made skirt)

I'm off to Denmark tomorrow (As I said, really busy summer holidays!) and I'm not sure if I'll be able to post whilst there, so if I disappear that's why :)

Outfit post today! Also, I have just discovered a really awesome mask I bought from Camden market ages ago, so :-D



Rather badly showing off my mask ;) It's a lot prettier in real life


Plain black tops go with anything 


Made this skirt myself, in about one minuet. It's literally just material safety pined together at the top. Not sure  how likely it is to fall down, but oh wells...




Awful picture, and not much makeup, but I have't used eyeliner on the insides of my eyes since a rather bad reaction to some cheap stuff a while ago. I decided to brave it today and, considering how little I've used eyeliner like this, am quite pleased with the results.

DIY: Safety pins are awesome.

I love safety pins. I really do. They're just so easy to use! To make ANY outfit seem more unique, I find just attaching a load of safety pins is great. (Don't worry, I do have some pattern behind my random attaching). Warning: This post contains a lot, because I'm going away to Cornwall for a while (not that long) so I'm just doing a load of posts in one




Safety-Pinned Fingerless Gloves 

Difficulty Rating: Easy 

You Will Need:


Something to use for the gloves. Socks, legwarmers, armwarmers, old top sleeves, whatever. I've used legwarmers



Obviously, safety pins. As many as you want



Scissors

Step 1) Cut a thumb hole in each of the potential gloves 


 Step 2) Attach safety pins however you wish to. Here is some of what I did. 


Safety pins around the thumb hole. This also stops fraying. 


I attached pins messily around the edge of it 




Threaded Eyebrows! 






 I got my eyebrows threaded today :). I love them but god it hurts...




More Safety Pins!

This time on my belt



Not going to do a tutorial for this because it's super easy. You literally just attach safety pins in a line
