Cropped Tops and Ripped Shorts | #tcfstyleexpo #OOTD
“Shine bright like a diamond” _ Rihanna

I love to play with fashion. My style can be described as whimsical glam. When I first saw these Missguided jean shorts I know I had to have them. It’s not offered that I see short ripped to this degree in plus sizes. They were fabulous alone but I know I was bringing them to TCFExpo I wanted to add a little something something to them to make them stand out.
I went to a local fabric store and purchased a rhinestone applique. Rhinestone appliques can be expensive however I found it to be worth it. I hand sewed the applique to my short. I’m not a sewer at all so believe me when I say it’s easy. I placed the applique on one side of the shorts and cut it to fit the pattern of the ripped jeans. I then sewed it down. I then repeated the process on the other side of the jeans.
Who you like me to do a video on the process? If so leave a yes in the comments!

I love your bold style especially when you rock crop tops. I’ve always been too self-conscious, but one day….Also, great job on the shorts. I dabble with DIY but applique is on a different level.
Thank you so much. Start off small with crop tops. I like to pair them with Kimonos for a little cover up. The appliqué was easy. I hand sewed it to the shorts. It isn’t on there for life but it works lol
so cute!
Thank you so much!
No problem!
