DIY Chanel Drip Tshirt


This little chopped up vest is my homemade homage to Zevs and his series of liquidated logos.






(Images via Artnet.com)



I whipped up the drippy logo & popped it off to t-shirt printers StreetShirts, who had my badboy back in the post the very next day!
The whole thing cost less than a tenner, which I would probably have spent had I bought transfer paper etc to do it by hand.
The model shown is a mens small and I cut the sleeves & neck off to make it a little less boxy.
I ordered it in plain black but I actually got a sort of midnight glitter effect which I quite like!
If you fancy your own Chanel Drip, you're more than welcome to download the .jpeg I used. Just click on the picture bellow & save it to your computer.


Send it off to your printer of choice, ask them to 'vectorize the image' (get rid of the white background) & voila!
Your own little piece of designer graffiti.


There's no reason men couldn't wear this too, although (unless you fancy a bit of peacocking) stick to matt black & white. 





As for the rest of the outfit:
Boots by Asos
Blazer by Zara
Jeans by Diesel
Sunnies by Ray Ban
Watch is this mens Casio (UK) or here for US
Nails by Mavala
& my blue clutch is by Clair Vivier in Royal Blue Pebble


But to be perfectly honest... I just can't wait until summer when I can pair it with little denim shorts & sling it over a bikini at the beach! 
Although I'm sure if you follow me on Pinterest you're more than aware of my current summertime cravings. 
I have terrible wonderlust that just cannot be satisfied with anything other than the clearest waters & the whitest sand...
Ahhh, I can dream.

    Why are you giving these away? You could sell them for a fortune!
    Even if you sold them for £20 you'd be making a healthy profit!
    Idiot.

    1. Hi Anonymous,
      It's just a little gift to my readers. Hey, maybe I'll make it back in karma!

      Ignore the haterz, I think it's awesome you're giving it away!
      But, if you do decide to sell them for £20 let me know, would rather not deal with the hassle of cutting it up etc.

    I think it's sweet that you've given the .jpeg away! It's nice when bloggers love back. Where is Mavala stocked in London? I want that Matte topcoat!
    PS I've seen a bit of hate towards this blog lately - I hope you don't take any notice of it. It's classic Tall Poppy Syndrome. You're fucking fabulous! x

    1. Thankyou!
      To be honest I don't really worry about it. I get so many lovely comments (like yours) that the few who choose to be nasty just fade into the distance.
      You can't please everyone all the time!
      Mavala is stocked in Boots & JohnLewis babe, and you can find it on their websites too

  33. Rose, I love your little ensemble here - how you match everything so nicely: your top, your jacket and the trousers. Also love your nails! How do you keep them so long and healthy? Would you do an entry in your blog about how you take care of your nails? Mine dont grow that long and they peel as well...
    I am going to go and get that shirt done - specifically with the sparkling glittery black colour - like how it came up on yours. Just black would be too plain :)
    Thank you for posting so often

    Rose, I NEED to know what you work at, I mean you go to the most glamorous events, you have the most unbelievable wardrobe ever, such and amazing figure, go party at the best clubs, an amazing apartment and the greatest taste in food.
    You should post a biography of you, so we can know how to have such a perfect life as yours.
