Taking inspo from fast fashion, but making it myself!

I fell in love with this skirt but didn't want to buy fast fashion, so I made it myself with some thrifted jeans, a couple thrifted belts and a few yards of fabric. I’m not saying it was easy, but it was fun and well worth the effort! I love my LDH Scissors and have agreed to be part of their affiliate program.
