DO IT YOURSELF - PATCHES

Patches are a trend. For the story, it appeared in the 70s as way of expression then in the 90s in a pop vibe with bold colors. Now in 2016, it's the revival again, I've seen it everywhere and every brand comes out with patches on anything. Clothing (denim, leather, etc), shoes and bag. But the great thing is that we can do it ourselves. The idea is to have an exclusif piece without spending too much money for it. You can find patches almost everywhere and customize something you have in your closet and give it a refresh.

I am partnering with Zalando on this DIY project and when they asked me what I would like to show, I immediately came out with the idea of the patches as I know that you would love. 

And just for your information guys and if you are interested in more DIY, check out Zalando website (https://www.zalando.ch/diy) as they have amazing videos.

STEP 1

YOU'LL NEED A BAG, STRONG GLUE AND SOME PATCHES. PUT EVERYTHING ON A PLACE WHERE YOU'LL BE ABLE TO WORK.

FIRST OF ALL, PLACE ALL THE PATCHES YOU LOVE ON THE BAG JUST TO SEE HOW YOU WANT THEM. THIS WILL ALLOW YOU HAVE A PRE-VISIBILITY OF THE FINAL RESULT.
