Beaded Collar to Necklace

Wednesday Jun 24, 2009

Here’s a tip – while thrifting learn to recognize interesting details that you can remake easily.  For instance, I saw this great collar last shopping trip – it’s beaded with gey pearls & rhinestones.  I knew I could cut it off to make a statement collar/necklace.  Easy!

Just check out how cool it looks once liberated from the dated shirt:

It might be a little too “playboy bunny” when worn with the points in front but I think worn backward it’s a great statement collar.  I side bonus is that I still have the rest of the shirt to work with.

What do you think?  Have you ever had one detail on a piece of clothing speak to you?
