Men's Blazer Skirt and Collar
Once in a while, I'll come across an out-dated blazer in Chris' closet that's just begging to be D.I.Y.ed. I usually use all of my self-control to put it back nicely, knowing that the next time he might want to squeeze into it again, it should be there but...well, I had a moment recently, and just grabbed a certain sports jacket that I figured he wouldn't miss. It's been pretty toasty here in L.A., but fall's just around the corner, so I thought I'd take his old coat, turn it into a mini-skirt/collar necklace, and see what happens. One things for sure: he won't notice it's gone. Anyway, here's what the old coat looks like, re-invented. 1. Cut away collar leaving a 1/2" in the back. Really sharp scissors are a must to get through all the layers. 2. Hot glue a thick wide ribbon to the back to keep all the threads from fraying. 3. Add a bauble to keep the two ends together. I found this great leopard face at Berger'...
