DIY The Look


Agnes from House of Illusions recreates the look of actress Sarah Jessica Parker for this week's #DIYTheLook

What I love most about Sarah Jessica Parker's style (besides being Carrie Bradshaw of course) is the mixture of couture with ultra feminine street wear. Even when she dresses down she looks elegantly chic.




Jenny creates her dream vintage look for today's #DIYTheLook

My girl is all about vintage. Loving the well turned out 40s to the fun and flirty 50s. Immaculate make up, beautifully styled hair. A make do and mend kinda girl who knows how to turn something ordinary into a statement piece. I included the cardigan, because even though it was intended as a children's project it would certainly work for 1950s woman who wanted fun and colour after the 1940s austerity,




Heidi from Hello Speckless recreates the look of Amelie for #DIYTheLook

Amelie -- the dreamer, the do-gooder, the imagination run wild. Here are a handful of tutorials to get Amelie's look: very simple, a little vintage, clean lines cut with a bit of feminine . . . a notebook to record adventures in and a gnome to share them with!




Erin from Hello Sweet Taco recreates the strong, patriotic style of Wonder Woman for #DIYTheLook

She’s strong, she’s patriotic, she’s beautiful, she’s brave and she's badass. What I love about Wonder Woman is that she looks so classy even when she has just come out of battle. Those red lips and flowing hair seem almost untouched, and she knows how to wear stars, be it on underwear, a skirt or even pants! Not many people can pull that off. Transform yourself into a casual Wonder Woman with these tutorials and get out there and save the day.'




Maggie recreates the look of the 90s for today's #DIYTheLook.

I thought that the idea of combining the 90s aesthetic with the idea of a goddess, incorporating goddess-like jewelry and headpieces with the 90s flair. I am drawn to the 90s feel, and its how I dress a lot of the time too - I'm especially happy that plaids/ditzy florals and dark reds and brown lipstick are back in vogue because I think its such a "cool girl" look, and has just the right amount of edge to not veer on the side of two "sweet".




Hannah from The Outfit Repeater recreates the style of Nicole Richie for #DIYTheLook

Nicole Richie is a style icon to me because she has her finger on the pulse of cool. Her ensembles constantly surprise and inspire me. From boho chic to old Hollywood glam, there's nothing that girl can't wear!




Amy recreates the look of anime, Cardcaptor Sakura for #DIYTheLook

Sakura Cardcaptors is one of my favourite animes, which I watched every morning on TV when I was younger. Sakura’s costumes are iconic, and the fact that in the show they were made by her friend makes it very relevant to Cut out and Keep. Her style is feminine and fun, unlike anything people normally wear! The costumes were a big influence on my later interests in Lolita and Steampunk.




Ntina from Happy Girly Crafty creates an everyday modern girl look for #DIYTheLook

It's a selection of what an everyday modern girl who is always on the move would wear. Accesories that compliment a minimal but flirty outfit and have a touch of sparkle and gold! I love a touch of gold on everything, from jewelry to make-up! Also a delicious cup of coffee is always by my side!




Eileen from 5 Feet Of Style recreates the look of Winona Ryder in Heathers for #DIYTheLook

Heathers is such an iconic movie from the 80s and stars one of my style favourites, Winona Ryder. In the movie she rocks a black pinafore and off shoulder blouse which is totally on trend at the moment! This black pinafore tutorial is perfect to recreate her dress, while the tutorial for the off shoulder blouse is so simple. I've added tutorials to DIY her accessories, make up and hair so you'll be a Heather in no time yourself!




Steffi from Anti.Muse recreates the punk style of Vivienne Westwood for today's #DIYTheLook

Vivienne Westwood is the mother of punk fashion. She and her former partner Malcom McLaren have been leading figures in creating the look of punk. Til today she is one of the most important women in fashion. In an interview Vivienne once said „Buy less, choose well and also do it yourself.“ is her claim, so in this spirit „cut out + keep“ would totally be her thing. Her signature look is a beautiful, wild mixture of punk elements and historical references, also the use of traditional tartan patterns and her draping techniques are very characteristic and unique. All in all I love how creative she is, her looks are never boring, but always different, inspiring and fun.
