I must confess I do enjoying flicking through those pictures of real people that appear in fashion magazines like Vogue and Grazia where they go out and snap random people out and about. The fact that they are always selective, in that there are an awfully high proportion of models compared to mortals and no one ever looks less than marvellous is by the by. I found these pictures in this month’s Vogue, and they all show people who are having lots of fun with their t-shirts.

Ripping Yarns!

First off, a t-shirt that has been chopped into a cut off worn under a shirt, and teamed with high waisted shorts. Easy to do and a good way of extending the life of your t-shirt.

Simply Divine!

Next up, the Vogue photographer happened upon the beautiful Jelena, a model, naturally. Her t-shirt has also been customised, but quite well, and unless you are the fashion studenty type, this might be a bit beyond you. Looks fab tho!

Finally….

Hot Coco!

Canadian model Coco Rocha, is showing Vogue what she wears every day for a month. I love this shot of her wearing one of her husband’s old t-shirts which he wears for painting in (I can’t work out whether he’s an artist or a decorator). So this is my final custom tip. Paint splats. Easy peasy and will give you an air of authentic designer artisty-type.

Anyway, they’re all in style bible Vogue which means they must be good. So have fun splodging, chopping and stitching and see what happens to your t-shirts.
