DIY: Bernstock Speirs Veiled Beanie

A host of bloggers and celebrities have been seen in these beanies, but you can make one yourself for a fraction of the price (the real thing retails at £150)



You will need: 
Beanie Hat
Milliner's net, about 1/2 a meter (I found mine in John Lewis)
Thread
Scissors 
Pins
1. Cut open the seam at the top of the hat, but only just enough to thread the net through
2. Fold the net in half then bunch the top up to a point.

3. Turn the hat inside out and put the net up through the inside of the hat.
4. Pin the net in place and sew it tightly to the hat. Make sure 
as little net as possible is sticking up on the inside of the hat.
5. Turn the hat the right way around. Try it on to see were the net is sticking up to much and use small stitches to fix it down. Keep trying it on as you do this.


6. Voilé! You have your very own designer hat

Jingle Bells

Yesterday was the first christmassy day I've had. I went to Birmingham Christmas shopping and stumbled into the Frankfurt market, 1 mile of pure Christmas! 

It was black friday as well and Selfridge's had 10% off across the whole store and urban Outfitters had 20%, perfect day.






I have gone a little crazy for the tartan trend as I used to wear it a lot but now you can buy it everywhere so I am fully taking advantage.

#OOTD

Well not quite OOTD, this is what I wore yesterday to college. There is certainly a feel of autumn in the air and this is the first time I've worn tights in about 2 months! Although it's a very black outfit, I tried to keep it sweet with a T shirt shape and collar done all the way up.

I christened my new bag as well. It needed a big bag for all of my collage stuff (huge sewing kit) and this one from Zara fit the bill. I adore the pebbled leather and gun metal chain handles. 

For the weekend I'll be collaging and drawing for my first project at college *eep!*.
