Sheer skirts appeared on runways and have been loved by many celebrities but the buzz about them started on the web. These skirts quickly became bloggers'favorite and started to be photographed everywhere. With so many bloggers suggesting you ways to style them it's your turn to fall in love with  the sheer skirt. Today I'll show you the easiest way to make a sexy but not to revealing skirt. I added a side slit that multiplies the ways to wear it. You can put the slit on one side, on the tight (like Angelina), on the back or on the center front.
You'll need:
  • chiffon fabric
  • lining fabric
  • 1 cm wide elastic band

Fold the sheer fabric and sew the side, sew only 40 cms- Repeat the process for the lining
This is how the side slit looks

Put the lining into the sheer fabric.
Turn over the sheer fabric on the inside a couple of cms.
Make two seams with 1 cm of distance. Leave one side open. This is where you insert the elastic band.
Cut the elastic band the lenght of your waist.
With the help of a safety pin insert the elastic band into the skirt.
You're adjusting the skirt to the size of your waist and you'll gather some fabric.
Block the elastic with a few stitches and the skirt is done!

DIY idea: mini + maxi skirt combo


Asos skirt

Maxi skirts are a must this season. Is it a trend anyone can pull off? In my opinion maxi skirs will look best on tall,lean girls,so what we can do? This asos skirt is the solution. Basically it's a short skirt with a maxi skirt over it in a sheer fabric. I think it adds a lot of mistery to the outfit and neutralizes the disadvantages of a maxi skirt (that makes legs look shorter). Plus we can copy this look at home. We'll take a rectangular piece of sheer fabric wider than the hips width,fold it in half and make a vertical seam on one side,now we'll obtain a "tube" . We'll then put an elastic band at the waist and the skirt is done. We'll wear it over a short skirt and the look is completed.

Le maxi gonne sono un must di questa estate ma non tutti le possono indossare! Sicuramente faranno più figura su ragazze alte e magre,come fare allora? Questa gonna di Asos è la soluzione. Praticamente è una gonna lunga fatta di una stoffa trasparente indossata sopra una gonna corta. Secondo me questa opzione aggiunge mistero al look neutralizzando gli svantaggi della gonna lunga (che tende ad accorciare le gambe). Per copiare questo look a casa basterà acquistare un rettangolo di stoffa trasparente più largo della circonferenza fianchi e lungo fino ai piedi. A questo mettete la stoffa doppia e fate una cucitura verticale da un lato e otterrete un "tubo". Cucite un elastico in vita e la gonna è fatta. Completate il look indossando la gonna lunga sopra una mini che già avete.
