DIY: Lace Insert Top

This week's DIY project is all about lace. I bought some black lace fabric about 2 months ago and I decided to put to use this past weekend. After searching online for some project ideas with lace, I came across this cool top which also included a DIY tutorial. It's pretty easy and requires absolutely no sewing which means you can try this at home. Supplies: shirt lace fabric chalk or marking pen scissors pins heat bond iron shape template (optional)

Turn the shirt inside out.
With the chalk mark the shape of your choice. You can also print out a shape and use that as a template.
Cut out the shape as marked on the shirt.
Pin down the piece that you cut onto the lace fabric.
Cut the lace around the shape with an extra 1/2 inch allowance.
Remove the pins and place the right side of lace face down onto the wrong side of the shirt.
Follow the directions to apply the heat bond using the iron.
Cut off the excess fabric.

Feeling Green

Hey there! Did you enjoy your extended weekend? I had a good weekend. We went to a surprise birthday dinner, did a little shopping, relaxed, and pushed back the chores to Monday. All was well until I got sick Monday evening. What a great way to get back to work! Having a cold won't stop me from doing what I do but I really wish it would go away. Hence the title of this post. I'm feeling green with envy that I have a cold and you don't. Although I think my sick voice is pretty sexy right now. ;-). Here's what I wore.

Wednesday is here and it was very foggy this morning. Hopefully the sun will come out and brighten up the day. Today I went for the mixed prints trend. The prints I chose are similar but with different color schemes. Here's how I styled it.
