Bright Colors for Winter + Easy DIY Tweed Skirt
Today I bring to you yet another DIY project or up-cycled project. What’s the story behind this DIY? My sister gave me this skirt a few years ago and it sat in my closet untouched, for at least 2 years. At the time, tweed wasn’t in style and to be frank, the skirt was highly unflattering on me. It hit about 4 inches below my knee and since I am on the short side, long skirts tend to make me look short and squat. Unless you are blessed with amazing height and longer “shin length” (distance between ankle and knee), you probably know what I’m talking about. If I want to wear a longer skirt, it has to hit right above the knees, be more body-fitting, and I have to wear heels for the look to flatter me.
Back to the project… Here is a before picture:
