“The most important thing to remember is that you can wear all the greatest clothes and all the greatest shoes, but you’ve got to have a good spirit on the inside. That’s what’s really going to make you look like you’re ready to rock the world.”
—Alicia Keys
Black is such a wonderful color. You can dress it up or down and is so universal. Today I decided to go simple but still yet glamorous. I wore a pair of combat boots, gray socks, spandex shiny leggings, a gray tank top and a black sweater. To add a little pop I decided to go with a t-shirt scarf I made myself. Here’s how I did it:
1. Find a few t-shirts that don’t have much writing or designs on it.
2. Cut about about 1 1/2- 2 inch strips horizontal to the base of the t-shirt until you reach the armpits of the shirt (or the beginning of the writing/design)
3. Next, take the cut up strips and stretch them as if you were stretching a rubber band while playing with it. This will make the t-shit curl and look similar to the pieces in my scarf. (See top right picture)
4. Next cut a piece of the left over t-shirt to tie around the circles of t-shirt fabric. Wrap the piece of t-shirt around the group of t-shirt circles in order to hold them all together. (See bottom right picture)
5.After tying the piece of fabric tuck the knot away so it isn’t visible.**
**Careful on step 5. I used scissors to shove the knot into the wrapped area so it would not be visible. (See bottom right picture)
