Kažu treća sreća. Ma, ništa im ja ne verujem. U teoriji je sve delovalo jednostavno - zašto u Zari platiti porez na idiote i kupiti lažnu, Made in China, maskirnu košulju, kada na Najlonu mogu lepo i patriotski da pazarim pravi military? Iako bi vam većina mojih prijatelja potvrdila da je moj duži boravak za šporetom sigurna najava smaka sveta, bila sam uporna, i čak tri puta pokušavala da ofarbam svoju vojničku košulju (klasa 2010, samo da se zna :) Naravno da je košulja bila impregnirana, da jadni vojnici ne bi pokisli, ali zato sam se ja osetila najpokislije na svetu kada sam shvatila da nema ništa od planiranog ombrovanja. Jedan nula za Zaru.
Manje iz ideje i plana, a više iz čiste frustracije grabim široku belu majicu za po kući, makaze rade svoje, potom je ubacujem je u farbu koja se i dalje krčka na šporetu. Šteta da se baci. A onda - magija, radost neplaniranog - možda se košulja nije dala, ali je zato majica ispala baš kako treba! Ovu wannabe Givenchy ogrlicu sam morala da imam, opsesije su ipak opsesije. Za kraj, DIY mrežasta haljina, stari znanac, ovaj put u novoj ulozi!

They say third time’s the charm, but I don’t buy it. Everything seemed perfectly easy in theory – why paying the idiot tax for a faux, Made in China camo shirt in Zara, when I can do the patriotic deed and thrift the real military from Nylon flea market? Even though most of my friends would read my prolonged stay around the stove as a sure sign that the end of the World is coming, I was really (three times) determined to dip dye my camo shirt (class of 2010 :). Military equipment is impregnated to keep the soldiers dry, but I surely felt as if someone has rained on my parade when I realized that the ombre camo shirt I imagined is simply not happening. Damn you Zara, you won this time!
Without an apparent plan, but 100% frustrated, I grab my stay-at-home-evenings plain white tee, cut the sleeves and dip it into the boiling dye. Nothing goes to waste. And then – the magic of the unexpected – I might not have planned it, but I’ve surely loved how my ombre tee turned out! SS 2013 obsessions are here to stay, so I simply had to have this wannabe Givenchy choker necklace. You all remember this DIY mesh dress, only this time in a different role!
