DIY The Look


Put together the perfect Birthday Party Outfit for #DIYTheLook with Carla.

I have to attend my father-in-law's 90th birthday party, being held at his country club, in July. What to wear has been on my mind! So, this is the outfit I've pulled together, with that in mind. It must be something classy, beautiful, and easy to do, in a hotel room - and budget friendly, without me feeling under dressed. The single cocktail is so I go in with a relaxed, devil-may-care attitude - and it's the Bee's Knees!




Recreate the style of Shane from The L Word in #DIYTheLook with Jo from Hiccupknitting.

Probably the most loved, hated and lusted over character. The style and character is iconic with anyone who has ever watched the show. Casual, stylish, lesbian tom boy. A skateboarding lesbian, tattooist, hair dresser and photographer (she's lived a life!) I'm also showing my age with remembering the first time this look was popular (the show first aired in 2004). I thought it'd be a cool project to do as The L Word: Generation Q aired in 2019 with Katherine Moennig in the role of Shane again.




Recreate the look of Blackpink Lisa in her Ddu-du Ddu-du video for #DIYTheLook with Alternativelychiic.

Blackpink's Lisa's is a fashion inspiration to me because she is never afraid to try different styles. I love that in the music videos she is always wearing daring, un-conventional outfits. She wears pieces of different clothes that you would never think of to put together. In the "DDU-DU DDU-DU" video she is wearing all these amazing outfits, but the one that caught my eye the most is the outfit where she is wearing a graphic tshirt, with a blazer, sparkly shorts and boots, and green gloves. This is a combination that one would think would be unappealing, but she pulls it off as she always does with anything she wears.




Recreate the look of Valkyrie from Thor for #DIYTheLook with Anjeanette Artist.

I love a redemption arc, and a strong warrior woman- Valkyrie is both- a badass hero on a mission! The character is amazing in Thor: Ragnarok, and dazzles as the warrior Queen of New Asgard in Endgame. Renowned for her prowess in battle, Brunnhilde or Valkyrie carries the enchanted sword Dragonfang in a sheath on her breastplate armor beside a royal blue cloak. Her smoky eyes, bubble style mohawk, and white face paint (or homemade eyeliner, perhaps in pearl?) complete the cation package! Here are 12 projects to get the look inspired by actor Tessa Thompson. I suggest starting with the brewing of the Mead so it's ready when your creating and work up a craft warrior sweat! Skol!




Create a grunge inspired outfit in #DIYTheLook with Rachael.

I grew up during the punk, then grunge eras...it was the most fun of my life. I still love these styles. Nothing more that I adore than a ripped up, patched up pair of jeans, "ruined" flannel shirts, fingerless gloves and plaid pants. Big sweaters are so comfortable and kewl! All my favorite musicians from Patti Smith to Chris Cornell and Soundgarden, all of my life for for 40 years has been tied to these musical movements. I love PUNK and I love GRUNGE even more.




Get the mermaid look in #DIYTheLook with Lindsay from Lacquered Lawyer.

For the girl who has everything. Inspired by Ariel from The Little Mermaid, these mermaid approved looks are just what you need this summer. Ariel is young at heart, a free spirit, and her style is all about the ocean and those beach-easy vibes. #mermaidhairdontcare.




DIY yourself a professional outfit in #DIYTheLook with Diver.

DIY Professional. Breakfast to get your morning started right, then make up and hair, nails and a DIY top and skirt. Plus with a little weekend prep, you can have a bath bomb to come home to as a reward for a job well done.




Fight off the autumn chill in style with this #DIYTheLook outfit from Traci.

My Autumn Chill outfit is all about staying cozy during those “sweater weather” fall mornings when the frost just starts to invade. I love all of the textures and layering this outfit affords, as well as the different accessories to choose from.




Beat the winter blues and create a gorgeous tropical outfit in #DIYTheLook with Adrienne Crafty Little Gnome.

Winter is coming but that doesn't mean you can't still live like the weather's warm. Check out this Tropical Style and DIY the look yourself. Conjure up memories of hot summer breezes and cool ocean spray. Get in a tropical mood and pretend you're headed on a trip to the islands even if you are just bundled up by the fire side.




Create an awesome Y2K Goth Girl inspired outfit in #DIYTheLook with Isabel from I Fly A Starship.

I've been super into Y2K goth girl vibes recently! I love how over the top looks were in the early 2000s, and goth/punk Hot Topic vibes have a special place in my heart!
