Ragged Priest inspired jacket...

I have gushed about my love for The Ragged Priest in an earlier post. 
All of it is very original looking and vibrant but a little too expensive for my student budget so I decided to attack an old denim jacket with dye & bleach to re-create my own version.



It was a pale blue/white denim with a humongous black current juice stain on the back of it from last year's Isle of White Festival. I soaked it in pale pink dylon dye and then tie-dyed it in bleach for 20 mins. It turned out great and the stain has been camouflaged out almost completely.



Now I just need to buy some studs to toughen it up a bit and then I am good to go. Very on-trend for this season and when I get bored of it I can just dye it black or navy.

My favourite colour is...

I decided to get a bit creative with my old battered converse. I have literally had them since I was 16 so that's...1,2,3...4...errr okay let's just say for over 5 years now :) and they resembled a white pair of converse that maybe had had a little too much fun (grey, stained, ripped) so I have put a new lease of life into the poor old things in the form of
'Bahama Blue' dye from Dylon (£4.99)

Before...


After!!!
Not bad for under a fiver!!!
They will compliment my new Topshop nail varnish perfectly.
