Today's look was inspired by a favorite fashion blogger of mine, Sheryl from Walk In Wonderland. I had seen her rock a very similar furry bag on her blog and when I clicked the link to buy it, the store was sold out. I emailed the store to see if they would restock this item but they said no. I was so sad but I figured if I can't buy it, I can make it!!! So I went to my local fabric store JoAnn's and they had a few different fur's but they all looked very thin and cheap. I asked all my creative peeps where I can find this specific fabric but no one knew. I watched a DIY tutorial from another fashion blogger I follow Kier Mellour which gave me the idea to use my faux fur sheepskin rug I purchased a few years ago. She made her bag with glue but I sewed mine together. I borrowed a long chain from one of my other bags and this is how this baby was born. I hope you enjoy this look and if you'd like to see a detailed DIY let me know in the comments below.

Lovely outfit! I really like the name of the post- very creative :D I would LOVE to see a DIY! Can't believe you made that bag yourself- it looks sooo professional and so on. I'm quite impressed #respect.

Ahhh thanks for the sweet comment. It was not easy because I did sew it by hand. I will definitely do a DIY in the next couple of weeks. I have to buy the supplies again and make a whole new one. I might do a little giveaway on the blog for the new one I make. Thanks for stopping by and I'm very happy you enjoyed the post!! XO
