 Last week I found these super cool dirt bike pants at Family Thrift Outlet for $2 and I wanted something equally cool to wear with them.  I had this houndstooth blazer that I was going to list on Depop ages ago and I put them together and thought they made such an awesome mix.  So, I used the dirt bike pants as the inspiration for this blazer bustier concoction of awesomeness!  This is a slightly more advanced tutorial, but it's definitely worth the watch.  I hope to inspire you to try something new.  It's funny what we can accomplish when we throw fear aside.

I recently went thrifting and found amazing pieces for the spring and summer.  One of the things that I found was this green mesh top for $2 at Family Thrift Outlet.  I was super excited because I have been looking for one, but I couldn't decide what to wear underneath.  A lot of girls wear  pretty bralettes or sports bras, but after having three kids my abs haven't quite bounced back yet.  LOL! (I never had abs.)  Anyway, I wanted something graphic that would peek through the mesh top, so I went looking for a cool sports tank top and couldn't find any with large graphics.  So, I found this Adidas t-shirt for $6.50 at my local thrift store and turned it into a tank top.  This project literally took me maybe 20 minutes including recording time and I absolutely love how it turned out.  This is spring/summer layering at it's best!

This week we are turning these track pants into a tube dress.  So you might be wondering why we would do this since track pants are so popular right now.  Well, the answer is simple: because we can.  I like athletic clothing and mixing it up with other pieces, but I love athletic inspired clothing and this seemed like the natural next step.  And with this dress, I love how you can dress it up or down so easily.  No matter what you wear with it, you're going to make a statement!

One of my favorite things to refashion are men's button up tops!  They are a great starting point for so many things.  I have been seeing these amazing puffy sleeve tops everywhere and I absolutely love how my version turned out.  It was so easy to make using three men's dress shirts that I got at the thrift store for a total of $5.00.  This one is definitely worth a try!

Raid the men's section of your local thrift store or your man's closet and get ready to make the easiest dress ever!!!

I first showed this dress in a thrift haul and it was highly requested that I do a tutorial on how to make a hoodie dress.  This is so simple that I actually feel silly for posting it, but I hope it's helpful.  I use this tutorial a lot for any thick oversized men's tops, like a hoodie, jacket, sweatshirt, or sweater (jumper).  They just make the best laid back mini dresses ever and they pair so well with sneakers (trainers).
