With Spring break right around the corner, we are all in the mind state of “improving”. From your Spring break bod to your Spring break wardrobe these improvements can get costly. Here are a few DIY’s to get beach ready on a budget, but I can’t take credit for these fab idea’s, check out a couple of my fav DIY’s below and more great ideas at Goldfish Kiss.
Scrunch butt
DIY spiral galaxy tank
Take an old tee shirt, turn it inside out and cut into a tank (or leave as a tee). Place a garbage bag in the middle of the shirt, if you don’t want the bleach to leak through. Then, fill a spray bottle with bleach and spray random spots where you would like the highlights of the galaxies to be.
Inspiration: Nordstrom Lush Slash Back Tee $32
The slash back tee DIY is as easy as it gets! Just grab an old t-shirt and a pair of sharp scissors.
Cut slits up the back of the t-shirt with about 2 inches of space in between (or whatever you prefer for the look your going for). You don’t need to worry about how straight or exact you cut the fabric, after you wash it the fabric will curl up.
You can cut the slits in a diamond, square, or any design, it’s up to you! After your shirt is cut, wet it, and throw it in the drier to rid of the blunt, straight edge look from the scissors.
Then Voila!
A new, casual slashed tee! Wear it with leggings running around town or with shorts and a bathing suit to the beach!
You can cut the neck to add a more slouchy look, and the hem around the base of the shirt and sleeves for a more frayed/curled look matching the newly slashed back.
Enjoy!

I have a friend that’s currently attending Douglas J an Aveda school for cosmetology here in Michigan. Last night, we ventured into the world of ombre and dyed my tips blonde. After scrolling through many photos on a Google image search for “ombre,” we decided to attempt a look similar to the picture of Lauren Conrad’s below. (I find it funny that when you search ombre on Google, pictures of hair is all that you get…I wonder if that would have been the case a few years ago).
