DIY Faded Lettering Fix Up



T (my daughter) and I are the same size. So when I spy a take over from her throw away pile I'm all over it
We both have these Mock Victoria Secret sweatsuits but in different colors. I'm assuming T threw hers away because the letters were splitting and fading. I thought at first they would make perfect PJ's. Then I realized a little liquid paper could do the trick to be able to actually wear them in public longer

My first attempt went quite well. I am going to pick up some white acrylic paint for a better touch up job, but for now.....





I put some paper towel under the letters so the liquid paper would not leak through to the back







 It was a snap

Super Duper Casual - The Sweatsuit Kind



Although I do take casual pictures I don't usually take really really casual pictures. You know the type where I'm actually wearing a sweat suit. I don't know why? I guess I've always thought they aren't worthy. However I've decided it would be silly to have you think I dress up everyday because frankly, I don't

So lets kick the crap out of that idea right now!

I'm wearing:

Mock Victoria Secret Pink casual wear, bought at Santee Alley in LA
Sketcher sneakers
Walmart strapless top
thrifted sunglasses
