DIY Pom-Pom Sandals

Pom-poms can be found on many clothing items and accessories this season. I could not help but fall in love with this fun trend especially after finding a pair of sandals on Etsy.  The $100+ price tag  turned me off  and I didn't purchase them. If there is a chance that any expensive item can be easily DIYed instead of bought, I prefer the DIY route. This particular project was not very expensive and could be done under one hour.  

I'm the DIY Queen, NOT!!! Sheer maxi skirt

      
           One of the trends that I had been eyeing for this spring was the sheer maxi skirt, but all the ones I had seen were way too pricey for me to spend on a trend.
         The other day I got a sudden burst of creativity, and got this bright idea that I would just make my own black sheer maxi skirt from stretch. Mind you, I don't sew. So I set out, with the picture below as inspiration. On my way to the fabric store I decided to stop by the thrift store first, and guess what? I ended up finding a plain sheer lined black maxi skirt for $4.99.Lucky for me, I did not have to do much to it when I got home. All I had to do was cut the lining out of the skirt.
          I personally paired mine with a black body con skirt. Unfortunately, I have not had the chance to wear it yet due to the fact that it is still freezing cold outside. I also really want a pleated sheer baby pink or cream maxi skirt to go better with spring, but we shall see. Enjoy
