The end is near.

Blazer and necklace; H&M, Pants: DIY, Heels: Nelly.com
Can I just say that I will be laughing my ass off tomorrow if the world does 'end'. 
I'm a bit skeptic about it, because I do think that something will happen.
But I think its more because of something we people do. Like the internet will crash or something.
So if the world does end, thank you for following me haha, it's been a great journey.
& Now I'm off to make some food, and then I'll go to the city with my friend to get another piercing. So excited! byeee x

Another DIY.

I'm on fire with DIY's lately! haha not really but this was yet another easy one I wanted to share with you.  So here we go!

Step 1. 
Collect a lot of old (broken) jewelry/earrings/buttons/studs etc. 

Step 2.
Select the fabric you want to use & make an outlining for the size necklace that you want.
And start securing all the jewelry etc you collected. Make sure you secure everything good, you don't want the jewelry to fall off when you're wearing the necklace!

Step 3.
When you've secured all the jewelry, cut out your necklace leaving a bit of fabric on the edges.
Step 4.
Cut out the same size for the back, you don't need to put anything on it, it's just to make the necklace look good from the front and the back ;)

Step 5.
Put the front and the back piece together.

Step 6.
Make straps, make them as long as you need to, otherwise it's hard to wear the necklace hmm.
And secure them to the necklace itself.

Step 7. 
Sew the lines of the necklace, make sure you don't put any buttons or jewelry near the side like I did, because it makes it almost impossible to sew the outlining. 
Then all you need to do us decide how you want to secure it, I used these things;


Et voilà you have a unique/vintage looking necklace! Good luck! 
p.s. do you like these kinds of posts? x

New DIY

I wanted a studded bra since the first time I saw one.
But I never found one that I could afford, I refuse to pay a shitload of money for a bra!
So when I found an old bikini top that I never wore. I decided it was time to make my own.
It's really simple, all you need is an old bra/bikini top and a lot of studs (I used about 300 studs), and patience! Because this does take a lot of time.
You just need to secure all the studs et voilà. 
Do you like it? x

Leader of the pack.

Blazer: C&A with a little DIY (studs), Shirt: Unknown, Skirt: DIY, Heels: New Look. Necklace; Ebay.
I finally received the 400 studs I ordered on ebay, so since I had my day off today.
I figured I'd give it a try, put some on my blazer and now I'm working on something else!
My brother (who took the pictures, thaaanks!) said I had a Michael Jackson look today haha.
It's probably because the jacket! 
Now I'm off to cook a lovely meal, I'm starving! Enjoy your day! x

I want it all, so I get it all.

Jacket and necklace: H&M, Blouse: Primark, Sirt: DIY, Heels: Nelly.com, Ring: Random store in Amsterdam.
Simple skirt, odd material.
I always like to play around with different materials when I make clothes.
When I came across this neon colored fabric, I couldn't not buy it haha.
Especially since this fabric is neon colored, and my blog's name is neonsign.
Get it? ha-ha. No but really I love this skirt! You'll see it more often ;) x

The moment of truth

Ahh I'm so stressed out, tomorrow I have to go to Utrecht for my admission at HKU.

Well wish me luck! x

Somebody's in my head again.

Blouse: H&M, Pants: DIY, Shoes: Nelly.com
Oh and I'm not mad, I was tired, it was early in the morning when I took this picture.
I adore my pants, especially because I made it myself.
It took me about 8 hours, and some needles in my fingers.
But I think the result is good, for the first pants I've ever made.
I'm already working on my second pair of pants.

Oh and tonight I'm going to see The Pretty Reckless.
I'm soooo excited, and I will bring my camera.
But for now I have to go to school and make some tests.

So I decided to make one myself, it's really easy haha.
Hope you like it!

Although I'm not sure yet, because my hair is still a little bit red.
I just hope it's going to work out nice, and if not..
Too bad for me haha.
