I’m With The DJ

DJ outfit

The concept for this DIY necklace started as a joke, but then I thought, "Why not actually make it?" I probably don't have to explain it to anyone who's ever dated a DJ. For others, let's just say I got tired of being hit on. Too bad, it didn't work! Not that I'm that super hottt, but chill alone at a bar for 10 minutes while the boyfriend sets up and before friends arrive, and the weirdos start swooping in.

  • DIY "I'm With The D.J." glam bib necklace
  • Burnout hi-lo crop top - I don't remember the brand and am out of town so I can't go check my closet. No1 Curr?
  • VS slip dress
  • Target gray leggings
  • DIY sequin bangle
  • One hot pink mesh fingerless glove - Why not?
  • Leopard print booties by Bamboo via GoJane

DIY bib necklace

The joke was originally to have this phrase on a t-shirt, but a necklace can be worn more often. I decided to make a bib style necklace out of cardboard. No tutorial here, it was pretty simple. Draw, cut, fill in with markers, top with ModPodge x glitter, top with Mod Podge, punch out holes, thread on a chain. The back is reinforced with leopard print duct tape, by the way. The whole thing is so glam! I love it and want to make more with different sayings and decorations--glue on some stuff. This was just so easy and fun.
What should the next one say?

    Style Eyes – Do you ever find yourself sitting alone at a bar for any length of time? That’s the key. It can give off the wrong impression. Hence the necklace! Lol..
