It's about that time again for a NEW DIY! This week I have been drooling over the Alexander Wang Rocco duffel bag that I originally saw worn by one of the Olsen twins. After Looking around on google, more celebrities emerged toting this not-so-average purse. Of course the price tag retailed at $875 so I had to get crafty, but half the fun is getting something for less than half the price right?
I started off with a bag I got on clearance at TJ Maxx for $20.00. ( I'M A CLEARANCE QUEEN!)
I then busted out the spikes that I have used in a few DIYs (DIY:Spiked Leather Jacket & DIY:Burberry inspired clutch ).
I carefully pulled the stitching from the lining in the inside to allow me to poke holes through the bottom without ruining it. When I was done I took a needle and thread and easily patched that baby up.
The spikes on the bottom definitely adds something unique and even makes it look more expensive.
Enjoy!
