    So it's been like forever since I last posted. Trying to settle down in school and it's sooo hard anyway today's diy is one of my favourite. Today I'll be giving a step by step tutorial on how to turn your suit jacket to a dress.

   So I asked my dad for one of his old suit jacket and he gave me...no qualms (I'm squealing rn, my friend thinks I'm a spoilt brat) anyway this is how to turn your jacket to a dress.

  THINGS NEEEDED

• Old suit jacket

• Scissors or blade

• Needle and thread

STEPS

•  Take your suit jacket and cut the sleeves off completely or better still loose the seams using a blade but remember to leave the inner lining.

• Remove the shoulder pad

• Fold and Hem the sleeves for a neat finish.

• (Optional) You can move the buttons to make the dress more fitted.

   And your dress is ready,  try using a belt to assentuate the waist and complete the look with a nice pair of heels and accessories to match. Don't forget to comment, share and subscribe. Feel free to follow me on instagram @makeupbyziza and twitter @styledbyziza .

    I came in like BOOM! Happy 2016 people....it's already five days into the new year and I can pretty much say it looks promising, forget the beach and vodka incident that happened few days back (lol believe me you don't want to know).

  So it's a new year and well after we done with the holiday festivities, school came calling back and I'm like I don't wanna go I really don't want to but I don't really have much choice actually I was kind of anticipating resuming this year.

  Anyway enough of the story. As some of you may know I'm a law student so Monday to Thursday I'm meant to be wearing black and white (how monotonous could that be) so I've been thinking of stylish ways to rock this corporate monochrome outfits and being the unconventional person I am, I see myself swapping my flats for sneakers and really going out of the norms.

  So my personal style today is a nice white long sleeve shirt (Gosh white is so hard to maintain, I can't believe I'm already complaining) and this really nice black skirt I got in a boutique over the holiday and I completed the look with a nice black low heels which I later swapped for a white sneakers. You can steal my style for just 10k or less.

  Remember this is a new year so in all things you do remember to stay stylish.  I wish you all a wonderful year ahead. Don't forget to comment and subscribe. Also follow on instagram @makeupbyziza.
