London 2012!

After thousands of cheers, emotions, experiences and weeks of hard work and  competition 2012 Olympics are now over [ :( ].
I really found myself the past weeks very interested in all competitions, always sneaking around in all places to find a tv to keep myself updated of who won medals and screaming in front of the tv like crazy. I was glad to have the opportunity to go live to London, and I must say it was an incredible experience. London was an amazing host for these 2012 Olympics, and I think these games made each one of us proud of our country!
Stay tuned cause i´ll post pictures of my trip to London 2012 soon!
Lots of kisses, Aura.

What´s New in my Wardrobe!

Hello guys! how´s everything?!
Sorry for not paying much attention these days to my blog, but now i´m a little bit more free to update it, because i finished my summer courses.
My vacation trips are getting closer, so I think it was important to renovate some clothes and match some looks. Here are my proposals...what look do you like the most?
You can find most of this clothing on Nasty Gal or in Zara

Much Love, Aura.

Let´s talk about shoes..

Hello sweethearts!
Today i´ts a good day to share another D.I.Y I´m in process of making: Neon orange flats!
I´m taking a course that teaches all the necessary steps to make ballerina/flat shoes this summer and I´m loving it! I had the chance to chose the color i would like to make them, I was between a light pink color, yellow or neon orange; I decided orange would be cool, to match them with a purse i bought from Forever 21.
I´ll show you the result pretty soon!
Kisses, Aura.

Want to share you my next D.I.Y

I think I already told you, but I´m taking clothing and pattern making courses, and this month we are learning to make different types of skirts. Right now I´m in love with salmon color, so i decided to start making this amaizing kind off semicircular skirt and i must say is going very well!
Promise I´ll show you the result when its done!
Lots of love and kisses,
Aura.

D.I.Y: Dyed Denim Shorts

Hey everybody! Today I´m here with this great and easy D.I.Y to transform those old jeans that we all have, to some grunge dyed denim shorts  super cool and original.


Things we are going to need:
-Cut off shorts with fabris scissors
-Fabric dye
-Cutter
-Rubber bands
-Bucket
-Extremely hot water


P.S: Sorry for the bad quality of the pictures, my camera was broken.

The first step is basically destroying your shorts with the cutter whereever you want, its totally up to you, but dont forget the line where we cut our shorts.

The next step is tying up your denim with the rubber bands to make a cool effect of washout when we dye. I decided to put rubber bands just at the buttom of our shorts.

Now we are going to mix the dye in a bucket with extremly hot water.
To make an affect of different tones, put little by little the dye in the hot water as we immerse the shorts.

Hold it for about 10 minutes, and then let it dry 30 minutes.

Take off the rubber bands.

To use them, first wash them separately  to prevent stained clothes if denim release dye.

Voila!
Hope you liked this D.I.Y! leave your comments :)
