DIY YSL

To-MAY-toe or To-MAH-toe! Yves Saint Laurent or Saint Laurent! Why did they drop the "Yves"? The reason, they say, was to make it more streamline.  I prefer Yves Saint Laurent and I want to be a part of the iconic brand. I present to you, the infamous YSL logo t-shirt.

Bow-wizzle

Turn up, Bron Bron!

In honor of YSL and DIY, I thought I would combine my two loves. I went online, printed the logo, cut it out and glued it to a cardboard box top. I used a straight edge and made my own stencil.

I went to A.C. Moore again and purchased plain t-shirts, 3 for $10.00. I already had fabric paint from a previous DIY project.

I used the ruler to mark the center, put cardboard inside the shirt to prevent the paint soaking through and used a styrofoam plate for the paint.

I used thumb tacks to secure the stencil and the cut-out cardboard pieces that define the lines in the "Y" and the "S".

Voila!

Let the shirt dry for 24 hours and wash before wearing.

LEATHER IS TRENDING!

Leather is all the rage! From Lebron James to Meek Mill, every rapper and/or baller can be seen rockin' leather these days.

Ok, so they really done messed up now. Because I got the idea to replicate this look by using a pair of faux leather leggings. I cut the sleeves off a black T-shirt that I got from Michael's. (3 for $10.00).  (I recommend slipping the legging on the arm and mark with chalk or pencil before cutting.)

Turned everything inside out and pinned them together and with my trusty sewing machine, sewed them together. (It took longer to pin it then to sew it).

My son was the inspiration/model for this creation. Voila!
