What I Wore : Black and Red & Belt DIY

This is what I wore last Thursday evening, when we went to see a play (that I posted about yesterday here). It was a casual theatre experience, so my outfit wasn’t overly dressy. The weather was warm enough to go out without a jacket however rain was in the forecast, so I wore leggings and boots. I bought this top recently because I really liked the mod looking colours and print, and the braid detailing around the neckline. But I thought it needed something around the waist, so I quickly made a wide elastic belt for it. (See last 3 pictures for this quick and easy DIY). The truth about the belt is that I had bought the supplies to make it a while back and not specifically for this shirt, and the desire to wear it with this outfit got me going and I finally made it. Not sure why I dawdled because it took me all of five minutes to make using my sewing machine.

I guess there’s not much more to say about the outfit, except for the details that I’ll give you below. I am noticing that outfit posts require little to no chatting!

I hope you’re having a splendid day!
