A vintage nightgown. For when you need a “Princess and the Pea” kind of evening. Nightgown, Vintage

I dip all my tools in gold. Why? Because I covet them, just like all my jewelry. Dress, Bensoni; Blue Shoes, Kate Spade New York; Yellow Shoes, Christian Lacroix

Bright shiny objects are a girl's best friend. Necklaces, P.S. - I made this…

Nothing makes me HAPPIER than my j’amazing craft closet! It houses all my DIY bits and bobs in the most insanely organized fashion that opens up to 9 feet. P-touch labels make for a quick ID (from spray paint to rhinestones), removable bins for 1,2,3 easy access, every single kind of paint, paper, glue and tape your heart desires! -

P.S. - I made this… ring necklace! One of my favs in my book! PS - I seriously wear it all of the time. Made from loads of fun rings on a rope - anyone can make one! The enamel necklace is made from vintage napkin rings I found upstate in Millbook, NY that are strung on double-faced satin ribbon. It’s very Dries meets Marni. Necklaces, P.S. - I made this… Shoes, Keds x Opening Ceremony

My heart goes pitter-patter for all things that splatter! Inspired by Alexander McQueen’s Butcher shoes - I P.S.’ed these issuing acrylic paints on Frye oxford shoes. Made from tights and bouncy balls, these quirky and fun necklaces scream to be worn out on the town. Martha Stewart asked me to make versions for her dogs as collars (in her fav color: orange.) All, P.S. - I made this…

Forever inspired by Jack & Lazaro. It was a time when the world was dying over all things SS10 Proenza, so I thought I’d DIY some DYE. It was my first collab with Hillary & Katherine of WhoWhatWear too! Top, P.S. - I made this…

My book is an extension of myself, psimadethis.com and everything in between - It’s fun to open my DIY doors and welcome everyone to peek and play. It was the most rewarding project I have ever worked on… get involved! The prep patches are super fun! The marquee letters were left over from a shoot. It’s fun to spell things out. My friend Ben Watts left the shoot with letters to spell out his daughter's name “RUBY”. Necklaces, P.S. - I made this…

All systems GO for Equestrian j’amazingness. I fell hard for the triple strap crackle heels for reasons that need no explanation. I tend to stare at them more then I actually wear them, just because they are so darn pretty! I P.S.’ed an H&M trench into a Burberry inspired gold spike look using chopsticks I painted gold. Hanging from the jacket are P.S.’ed Military Earrings and Equestrian brooches using buttons, gems, from cupcake wrappers (both in my book). P.S. - the photo is a Robert Tabor Reprint… he is my hero! #Canyoutellthatimobsessedwithhorses Shoes, Chloé; Jacket, Earrings and Brooches, P.S. - I made this…

My mom wore this when she married my dad. She was a hippie. A flower child. A free spirit. A bride. Skirt, Mother’s Wedding Outfit

There is no dating of this blouse. The classic silk silhouette, the bold colors, it was chic in the 70’s, and remains to this day. My aunt probably paired with a pencil skirt… I opt for a jean or riding pant. #Timeless Top, Vintage from Aunt

Quote etched on necklace from Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter is Dead "I’M RIGHT ON TOP OF THAT, ROSE." Classic. That was one of the first movies I recall where I wanted to be that character. Sue-Ellen (Christina Applegate’s character) wanted to work in the fashion industry so bad, she did anything and everything to succeed at an early age. Driven, smart, creative, and cut a few corners, (very DIY-ishy). The “P.S.” duo, ARE doing anything and everything at such a young age. I’m blown away by their talent and am honored to share such initials with them. I bow down to them and all things Proenza Schouler! Bag, Proenza Schouler; Necklace, Custom

I live for this bracelet. I imagine I’m a bohemian princess from Santa Fe who reeks of chic and bleeds style. Necklace is gold spray-painted shells, mixed with grey pearls and some delicate tulle. Bracelet, Oscar de la Renta; Necklace, P.S. - I made this…

Crocs. Crazy bling. Crafts. That pretty much sums me up. The croc was in my Easter basket from my Mom (she knows me so well!). I collect lots of vintage and modern rhinestone pieces…I rock my Mom’s 80’s pieces all the time.

My horse is named Palermo Solace. He was purchased in Palm Springs (PS, obvs), and shipped back to NYC in a Calvin Klein wardrobe box. Tory, herself, actually wore this piece to the 2008 CFDA’s. Turquoise is an under the sea, OdlR dream. P.S. - I love statement necklaces. Necklaces, Tory Burch, Oscar de la Renta

I designed Givenchy watches straight out of college and became obsessed with timepieces, which are magical. I have been collecting them ever since. I covet my toolbox. I found this at the flea market on Melrose/Fairfax in LA.

F is for Finger knitting and friendship bracelets, both of which are always better when infused with a neon sensation. (PS - my lamp has a lady working with heavy machinery, please advise.) Bracelets, P.S. - I made this…

I P.S.’ed my jeans into a denim messenger bag with some added bling! The patchwork palazzo pants were sewed by my aunt, who was instrumental in my sewing/knitting upbringing. They are crazy cool. Pants, Aunt Domesek; Bag, P.S. - I made this…

I have a love affair with Sharpies. They are bold, colorful, and make a statement - what’s not to love. The bracelet was a gift from my best friend! (P.S. - Her name is Sass, really - I swear). Bracelet, Hermès

The Coveteur captures the essense of ELD: Taxidermy. Tassels. Text books. Earrings, Oscar de la Renta

This is my Power 90’s Karaoke dress. Dress, Vintage Joseph Ribkoff; Bracelet, P.S. - I made this…

Midas touch. P.S. - I made this… gold oxford by spraying, adding chain and brads. A winning pair. The scissors are awesome and I got them from Target (double awesome). I was fortunate enough to DIY hats with Donatella at the Art of Elysium’s Bright Lights event, where I worked with Dasani to create and customize Green Caps. PS - I helped her open her safety pins because her nails were so long. P.S. - I love her… so much. Shoes, P.S. - I made this…
