Here are a few style tips on how to wear and tie scarves for any season and look ....

Here's what you need for this project:
- Long high-waist shorts (easily thrifted)
- Fabric scissors
- Fabric pen (or Sharpie, as I used)
- Tape measure
- Fray Check
Step 1:
Trim the length of the shorts. I did this a couple of times, trying them on after each time to see how the length felt on me. Be sure to save some room for the scallops, they will shorten the length a bit.
Step 2:
Measure the width of the leg. I wanted 3 1/2 scallops across the leg, so I divided this length by 3.5 and found a circular object around the house that matched this diameter. It just so happened that a candid lid worked perfectly. You can always fudge the diameter a little, but if you are going to do this, I suggest using a washable fabric marker rather than a Sharpie for the next step.
Step 3:
Trace the circular object across the width of the fronts and backs of each leg. A fabric pen would probably be better for this step, but I had confidence!!
Step 4:
Use super sharp fabric scissors to carefully cut on the inside of where you drew the semi-circles. I definitely suggest cutting the fronts and the backs separately to avoid any tragic mistakes.
Step 5:
Add a light coat of fray check to the edge of the shorts. When it dries, trim any slightly uneven spots or frays that are hanging out.
For this project, you can also use a long pair of pants.

Greek islands are among the most popular in the world for the summer of 2014, according to an analysis by hotel comparison site Trivago.
But for those unable to experience their beauty, why not bring the islands into your home. There is something unique and wonderful about the whitewashed homes against the earthy rock.
If you want to incorporate a Greek island feel in your home decor, here are some different looks and ideas....
Being the lightest hue of the spectrum, the color psychology of yellow is uplifting and illuminating, offering hope, happiness, cheerfulness and fun.
Yellow is the best color to create enthusiasm for life and can awaken greater confidence and optimism and it is the most highly visible of all colors.
And a great color for a beautiful summer. So ladies, be sexy in yellow ...
The watch has to be our favorite item, besides the shoes of course''!
Materials:
1 old T-shirt (the bigger the better)
1 pair of scissors
1 ruler
Steps:
1. Start with a large T-shirt. Any old shirt will do. Seamless is a plus.
2. Cut off the bottom hem of the shirt. Then cut 1 in - 2 in wide strips horizontally across the shirt from bottom to armpit. You can cut as many strips as you would like (I liked my thick strips the most). The more strips, the more strands your scarf will have. You can use a ruler to guide a straight line across the shirt, but don't worry if they aren't perfect.
3. Set the bottom hem aside. Stretch all of the remaining strips until they become ling, and the raw edges start to roll inwards.
4. Cut one end of the bottom hemline so it becomes a string.
5. Using the strip of bottom hemline, knot it around the strands to secure them in place.
6. Wrap the strip a few inches around the center of the scarf, and back over to meet the other ends. Knot the ends together tightly.
7. Trim the loose ends and tuck the knot underneath the wrapped fabric.
Here is a DIY guide on how to tie a draped skirt. I've used an old scarf from H&M, but if you have an old piece of jersey, it's just fine. My scarf is 75 cm wide after I folded it on the middle and 2,5 m long. You have to tie it as tight as possible, so it stays in place. Finally you place a hairpin on top your closure, to make sure it won't fall off when you're going crazy on the dance floor!
