DIY CHUNKY 'SCARF'

'scarf': formally an ikea blanket
shirt, leather jacket, coat (similar): matalan
jeans: topshop
shoes: principles @ debenhams (similar)

RIP to the throw you used to be... or a blanket I don't really know. Ok I know I'm not funny, but a few hours ago this was a blanket, recently I've been wanting a really chunky long scarf and in the midst of it being really cold, not owning one and not wanting to buy one online for £20 I made this in less than five minutes. I cut it in half, quickly sewed the half ends together to give it extra length and voila, scarf. Admittedly I'm probably still going to end up buying one online because I do still really want a few massive scarves and they will probably be one of the most practical garments in my wardrobe, Primark are doing one for £6 aswell! I started off quite optimistically in just a leather jacket but I had to throw on a coat eventually, and I  literally mean throw on, bloggers seem to not know what arm holes are.

Let me know if you have gotten into the massive scarf trend in the comments below, thanks for reading and make sure to follow

    1. Thanks! I should probably sort out my bad cutting on a sewing machine but it can be easily hidden
