Style Journal: London Calling

For some reason I love dressing for rainy grey days. Soooo here is my rainy monday/school look

Blazer: Gabriel Brothers
Sweater: Van Heusen Outlet
Grey Hoodie: Sports store
Skinnies: Kohls
Black tie ups: Thrifted
Ciao Bella Bag: Souvenir from the Florence Leather Market
Headphones: Beats by Dr. Dre

       

              

 Headphones are a hot trend this spring and if your a music lover, it's definitely worth the investment. Top designer fashion stores such as Colette in Paris, I.T. in Hong Kong, and Isetan in Tokyo have started selling high-end stereo headphones alongside designer clothes and jewelry. They have come to be seen as an extension of peoples' personalities, aka an accessorie.

Typography Art Poster

 Now, I don't know about everyone else, but I have been noticing all these really neat and creative typography posters/art works. So I decided to try something of my own. I found a photo on Pinterest that I really liked, and mimicked it, so it is not an original idea. :)
Here is my result:

Supplies:

Water Colours
Water
Sharpies [fine point and medium tip]
Pencil
Q-tips
Cotton ball
Soaked tea bag
Drawing paper
Hi-Polymer Eraser

1. With your soaked tea bag, stain your paper to achieve a vintage/old school effect

2. After the paper has dried, either by waiting or blowing drying it, sketch out your design 

3. Fill in your pencil markings with sharpie and decorate your paper with your taste of colours/pattern/anything really. I took cotton ball, and sponged a cloud like image around my words. I also drew a photo of a bike and traced it in with my desired colour using a Q-tip.

And that is about it. Each piece of course would be different, but here is one example. These would make great gifts too instead of buying them off etsy for 10 or more!
