Like-wise the cut-out trend is well and truly in, if you're feeling brave you can get chopping with an item from your wardrobe you want to grunce up a bit!
If you're scared to use the needle and thread or start cutting away at your clothes, then fear not, tying and knotting excess fabric is an easy way to create a new design to an outfit that needs a little pazzazz.
Sometimes, all an outfit needs is a little bit of tailoring. An easy way to get an outfit looking effortless is for it to be well-fitted, you can achieve this with just some ribbon and safety pins!
Have your clothes fit you like a glove by attaching a safety pin on either side of your garment inside and threading the ribbon through. Tie it off to snuggly follow your figure and there you have it – it looks like it was tailor-made for you!
You can even follow a tutorial online on your flexible smartphone, just prop it up whilst its half-folded and get crafting – easy!
