Upcycled pieces of clothes, be it a sock, a favourite pattern from a top that no longer serves its purpose, through to your mom’s old curtain material with a retro print that reminds you of your childhood bedroom in the 1980’s.
Little independents are offering some of the most creative options, cute little ditsy prints, your favourite Marvel/DC character, or even an inspirational quote (or not in some cases I’ve seen!) Here is a link to Etsy, a great website to search for what independents have to offer.
High street brands are also joining in with some very affordable looks, which won’t break the bank but will make you stand out on your daily commute! Here is a link to a great article from Glamour Magazine.
