Create your own studded look...

You will need:

• Denim shirt (SAVI loves this Mango Mid Wash Degrade Denim Shirt, £40)
• Fabric marker pen
• Studs, available at Love Craft (http://www.love-craft.co.uk/studs-spikes-1.html)

1. Wash the shirt to soften the denim
2. When dry, mark on the desired position of the studs
3. Poke spikes through the material, covering the marker pen, and fold pack to hold in place

Savi loves embellishment on the collar and pocket

If you don't have the time or patience to poke holes through your clothes, a great alternative is a collar necklace. Savi loves our new one from Topshop:

Nails

You can now buy studs to go on your nails! Easy to use and available in all different shapes, you can create some long lasting nail designs to match your new biker gear...

Savi loves these Andrea Fullerton Gold Nail Studs, £5 from Amazon

 But if you can’t get hold of nail studs, here’s what Savi did instead...

Just apply a base coat and colour, then using a cocktail stick add gold spots for a 2D version.
