Recycled Fashion: Fashion Inspiration: Neon

Wednesday, September 28, 2011

Neon; appearing frequently in fashion trends over the past year. A fluorescent glow certainly highlights an outfit, although it wouldn't be advisable to go overboard on the brights, for fear of causing a midday traffic collision! A little pop of neon might be the way to go. Here are a few handmade, vintage, and DIY neon fashion pieces to brighten your day.

DIY Tribal Print Canvas Shoes

Heres my first DIY project inspired by all the tribal prints I’ve been seeing on tumblr and the world of fashion. First I got white canvas shoes from H&M for about $12 and many small tubes of neon fabric paint from my local craft store for probably around $8. With a pencil I sketched out on the shoes what type of pattern I wanted, then later on just applied the paint in a funky tribal pattern. I referenced a couple pictures until I found what pattern inspired me most then just took a small brush and applied it. Shoes like these will be sure to brighten up your day and put a pep in your step! Enjoy! :D http://teaahnuh.tumblr.com/

Wag Doll said...: Ooh I adore the neon legwarmers! Altho it helps to have great tanned legs like the model LOL! Yes I've been wearing neon when I've had a (fake) tan as it doesn't suit my skin when it's pale. It always seems a summer trend to me though, not sure it would work in winter?; September 28, 2011 at 10:01 PM
