Refinery29 has a video on DIY Metallic Trim Blazer similar to the Elizabeth and James blazer you see in the above picture. Click here<\/a> if you want to make something similar. I tried painting an old pair of Michael Kors sunglasses to give it a gold blocked look using Jacquard metallic paints<\/a>. A painter’s tape might help you achieve a cleaner look. Do you like my project? <\/span><\/p>\n

The dot based pieces on Moschino Fall \/ Winter<\/a> show were amazing and inspired me to paint my old android phone case with gold polka dots. I also love the starry night look of Chloe bag and I think it’s perfect for fall. Do you like my project?<\/span>

<\/span>Would you try these projects? What do you think of them? Would love to read your comments.\u00a0<\/span>

<\/span>I think the idea of mixing luxury and mass-market fashion is very modern, very now – no one wears head-to-toe designer anymore.<\/span>
