So often we go to a store and buy the clothes we see on the mannequins – and then we wear them out only to find some other girl at the party is wearing the same thing.  Fashion Fail. This week’s installment was inspired by LOOKBOOK – one of the best street style websites around.  The girls below have spun some DIY magic on their wardrobes to create totally unique looks:

Denim shorts

Have a pair of jeans that dont fit so well on the legs anymore?  Why not cut them and give them a new lease on life.  Looks great when worn with tights or even bare legs and ankle boots

I recently stole a shirt from my boyfriend’s wardrobe and cut the sleeves off to wear it with leggings – she’s done the same below.  Wear a little black cami underneath so as not to bare all to the world!

Leggings

Boyfriends are good for one thing: new wardrobe must haves!  Grab your boyfriend’s collared shirt or buy one from the guys’ section of the store and cinch it in with a belt.  Loving this look for summer!

I love the idea of making something completely my own – and in an age where anything goes in fashion, it’s a great opportunity to flex your creative muscles.
