DIY: CROP TOP FROM A PAIR OF TIGHTS!


HELLO BLOGGERS! I'm back with a DIY for you guys and its FRIDAY aka DIY FRIDAY!


1. What you will need: •A pair of tights •Pair of scissors 

2. Cut off the feet, this will form your sleeves so its up to you if you want long or short sleeves. 
Tip: Fold them in half and make sure your scissors are sharp to get a even cut. 

3. Now open the tights to the crotch area, this is where you will create the opening for your head and your neckline. To do this your going to create a triangle to cut out, now most tights already have a triangle area but those that don't create your own. Use a white liner to draw out a guide.

4. Cut it out! It doesn't have to be perfect but remember if you cut it out small you will have a higher neckline and if you cut out a bigger triangle then the scoop of the neckline will be lower.

You could use black tights, patterned tights, leggings and jeggings! Have a look in your closets & get creative with what you have! 


   Don't worry if they ladder/rip while putting them on, it makes the look more unique.


Hope this DIY inspires you guys to make your own! Tweet me a pic if you do! @lavinyaroyes
