Express Yourself DIY

By Coko Galore

Two outings in a row recently, I've seen recognizable homemade outfits and accessories. Homemade usually fits the body better while custom accessories are unique and personable!

We are all caught up in trying to be so cool, waiting for the iPhone 3G and this guy I ran into brings back the videotape on a homemade chain! Seriously, when was the
last time you used a videotape - let alone wore it around your neck?! At home, you can make things up as you go along with old items lying around your house. Recycling is in. We won't even get into this guys' eyes and glasses tattoo. It's real. And of course, his personal message t-shirt. His boyfriend made him wear it. It must be the new way of telling someone what to wear: make the outfit and make the message clear - he's taken.

I myself would never wear any of these outfits as they're not for me - but it's great when people express themselves exactly the way they want to.
