Hi you guys! I'm in my car right now
because I am going thrifting and I'm
going to try and recreate ariana
grande's look from the billboard cover.
She's wearing a brown blazer with like
some draping over it. So I'm actually
getting my oil change right now. I have
to do that first because my light has been
on for a little while. Then I'll
probably go to Goodwill, and to Crossroads
and see what they have there.
So before we go in I wanted to share my
look of the day with you. I'm wearing a
black blazer that I actually got at
Goodwill for $1,
this white cami underneath, and my belt
bag from Topshop that I also got
thrifting, these ripped jeans from
Fashion Nova, and converse shoes. Here we
go. Maybe we can find something here.
That's kind of close, but not the right
color.
This one could work.
Or maybe that one. Let's see.
The sleeves are like
way too long.
This one's too small.
So , I think this could work.
It's from Banana Republic and it still
has the original tag on it and it's only
ten dollars.
Okay you guys I got a blazer
from Goodwill and now I'm at Michaels.
I'm gonna go look for the
rhinestones to put over the Blazer. Let's
see what we can find.
I'm in the jewelry section right now
looking for some kind of like rhinestone
thing, like a string of rhinestones. I
don't see any here. Maybe there are some
over here. These all look like beads
actually. They have these but I'm looking
for more of like a string. These might do.
Let's see there's any more of this color.
Here is the blazer and as you can see
it's new with the tag from Banana
Republic and new it costs one hundred
and forty nine dollars and I got it for
well it says here ten dollars but it was
50% off. So I actually got it for five
which is a great deal. I can't believe
that. Unfortunately I didn't find what I
was looking for at Michael's.
but I'm gonna go ahead and order some
rhinestone strings on Amazon. These are
the strings that I'm gonna order they're
only $7.99 and they should arrive in a
day or two. So we'll finish the tutorial
then. Hi guys, I am back to recreate
Ariana Grande's blazer from the
billboard cover. So here I have the
Blazer and I got three spools of
rhinestones from Amazon. I didn't want to
run out. This is what they look like. They
come wrapped in plastic and I also have
needle and thread. So this is the look
that we're trying to recreate.
Here's another shot of it. Okay you guys
can kind of see now I have the
rhinestones laid out on one side. Oh
ignore my Scottish terrier pajamas. And
I'm going to put some thread at the top
to hold it and then some thread here to
connect and then connect here like this
and then back down here and alternating
between the rhinestone strings of what I
connect if that makes sense. I'm going to
do this side and then I'm going to do
the other side of the jacket. I'm going
to use the brown thread so that you
cannot see it on the jacket. I'm
going to start with threading up here
and sewing it on. So I'm going to sew
these two together and then down here.
The needle literally just
snapped as I was trying to thread it. Do
you see that?
Man down. Okay apparently I bought like
the s*** sewing kit because look at
what happened to these scissors when I
tried to use them. I'm done and now I'm
doing this one I'm literally just going
over under over under over under and
making sure I'm not sewing the back of
the jacket to the front of the jacket
while I'm going under because I
literally just did that I had to cut it
and redo it. Okay so I just finished
one side of the jacket and I've just
been sewing little pieces here here here
as you can see and then I did a little
bit on the back just to make it stay. So
now I'm gonna do the other side. All
right I finally finished the blazer. As
you can see I made a mess but now there
are rhinestones on both sides and here
they're gathered on the bottom. I left it
open.
Ariana Grande's kind of like come
across like this but obviously I have to
put it on. Here's another shot of the
back so you can kind of see. It just sort
of dangles down and then loops around
the front on both sides.
I am wearing the blazer that I made to imitate Ariana Grande. I paired it with some Zara pants and I'm wearing some simple Zara black patent leather heels as well.
I have no idea where I'll wear this but
I love it anyway!
