Urban attack

By far my favorite fit for the winter to spring transition. The weather is amazing outside! Hot but not too hot with a breeze. I decided to go on the urban side today with the boots and skully.
The plaid dress I got from Rue 21 for $9 . I wore it is a jacket though. I loved it bought last weekend and had to wear it today to compliment the look I was going for.

DIY PEARL VEIL BEANIE

I love hats!! Can't get enough of them. I got this inspiration from the pink veil beanie that Rihanna wore last year. To add a twist i decided to put pearls on mine, to give it an urban chic style.


Supplies
8in nylon netting
Beanie
Thread and needle
String of pearls ( i use glass pearls)


First thing I folded my nylon netting width wise. No need to trim the netting.

Next i place the beanie in the center of the netting. I didnt pin the hat to the netting because I knew it was not going to be difficult to sew it together.
Next thread the needle and sew on the netting to the hat. 

This is a side view of the beanie after i finished sewing on the netting. I put an inch of the netting below the beanie because i want it to cover my head a little.

The most time consuming part of the diy was sewing the pearls securely so they wouldn't fall off. 

I threaded the needle. Then I tied a note on the end of the thread. I pushed the pearl through the needle and sewed through the hole of the pearl back out through the hat.



These are photos of the finished products!
