Vintage Chic Sometimes less is more.
Take your coat back to a glamorous time by simply
shortening your coat's sleeves to three-quarters length
(cutting just below the elbows)
Pair with long vintage-inspired gloves
and a rhinestone brooch to complete your vintage look

Warm and Fuzzy
Think mink! (Faux(fake), of course.)
Remove the fur from an old coat or buy new faux fur from the fabric store.
Measure and cut the fur to fit the collar and cuffs of your coat.
Sew or glue fur, and voila!
Your old coat is instantly more glamorous and warmer.

Faux Silkscreen Style
Turn your mass- produced coat into a work of art with a silkscreen-style image.Print out a high contrast image and transfer it to your coat
using the grid drawing method and washable chalk.
Then fill in the image with fabric paint.

Rock the Coat Take your coat from prim and proper to offbeat and hip with band pins.
Attach a ton of them to create a graphic texture that shows off your unique taste in music.
Coordinate the pin's colour with your coat and it'll look like they're meant to be together, kind of like your favorite band...

Retro Splash
Give your old coat an outrageous 80's retro look with splashes of fabric paint.
Use multiple contrasting colors for a highly graphic look,
or muted colors for a subtle textured look.

Crystals Forget diamonds, these glue-on crystals are where it's at.
Simply glue these tiny clear plastic faux-diamonds
to your collar or anywhere u like to make your coat sparkle.

Applique Patches Embroidered iron-on appliques come in all shapes and sizes,
from roses to butterflies to skulls and crossbones.
Find an applique that suits your style and personalize your coat.

In Stitches
You don't have to be a tailor to create
a simple running stitch with a needle and embroidery thread.
First, sketch your design on your coat with washable chalk.
Then stitch on your one-of-a-kind embroidered design. ______________________________________________________________
Rhinestone Fleur de Lis
These beautiful rhinestone fleur de lis
can be attached anywhere on your coat
to add a touch of sophistication and sparkle.
