DIY Embellished Sweatshirt

Hey guys! Sorry I haven't been posted much.
School has really gotten in the way and my blog hasn't seen much love.

So here's a little throwback from the winter!

In the States, cheap sweatshirts are everywhere. Every-time they are on sale at places like Walmart or Target I just cannot pass them up. $2 bucks for a Hanes super soft sweatshirt?! YEAH ILL BUY IT.

Only problem is - I have so many. And I love to wear them in the winter, but they are so boring... and I look like I didn't even try. The Solution? An easy DIY thats cheap, cute and only requires a little bit of sewing knowledge.

All you need is a needle and thread, sew-able (with holes) acrylic gems, and a sweatshirt! Just sew on any design you want! Here are some pictures of my process. I just did a simple design around the collar...its not every symmetrical - but who cares! its MY sweatshirt!






And the finished product, as shown on a picture from my Instagram! Follow me! @omglani

DIY - Hair Chain

Hey guys,

Sorry, I know I have been doing so many DIYS, but since I am still on holiday from school I decided to take advantage and make a bunch of stuff I have been wanted to make.


I love hair chains, but like this one from Urban Outfitters, but for about $3 bucks I can make my own!
Luckily, I already owned the tools you will need. Here is what you will need to make your own:

  • Chain of any color, I choose a kind of white gold color.
  • Jump rings, just make sure they can go through the chain of your choice.
  • Jump nose pliers and wire cutters.


These are the tools I used. I felt like I needed an other pliers to work with the jump rings.


First take the chain and wrap around your head. Cut the length of chain you need and attach with a jump ring. I used a double jump ring for the back, but you could use a regular one. 




So the next step is to cut a length of chain to go over your head like so. Attach to the first jump hoop and add a new jump to the middle of the front. I recommend when attaching this piece to the back jump hoop to take out the outer chain and put the middle piece in, then replace the outer chain so you don't have a tangled mess. I hope this makes sense! You can stop here if you like.



I decided to add another looser chain later underneath the current circle. Just measure out one side, cut it and cut an identical piece and attach them to the two jump hoops. I know I am not explaining much, but I hope its not rocket science for you!



Let me know how it goes!

Wholesale-Dress.net Review

I wanted to do a quick review of wholesale-dress.net! I was so excited when I found out the company wanted to send me some stuff I got really excited! Shopping Asian wholesale can be a bit scary because everything, for the most part, is one size, but if you do the research it may be well worth it. I do not plan to type up a storm because I already did a review video on my YouTube channel, but I will post pictures of each item!


First is this wooden cross necklace. I guess since it was only about $0.50, I really can't complain about the quality.



I honestly thought this was the coolest thing ever until it broke. When I first got it, it felt very strong so I am surprised it broke. I plan to superglue it, and hopefully that will fix it.




This is the item I felt like was to pricey for what I got. The length of the dress is much shorter than what the website advertised, so currently, I cannot wear this dress. I know I am very tall, but I thought since I was careful to measure myself and the dimensions of the dress listed I would be fine. It's a good quality dress but it is going to need some work in order to be a fit for me.

I plan to make a few alterations to the dress, which I plan to blog about later. Please watch my review video! I go in more detail of what are my plans. 



Well, although I was too happy about the products I got, I feel as if I would try to order again from this. For the price of the products, I feel as if it is a good deal to chance your luck. Anyways, have you every bought from any wholesale Asian website? If not, do you think you ever would? If I have intoduced you to the concept, I recommend checking out this fourm HERE. It includes a much of products modeled on real people and it really helped me out when shopping these sorts of websites.

Anyways,
Happy Sunday
