Summary:

Why throw out your old clothes when they can be transformed for very
little money? With an eye for all things 'stylishly vintage', Mary
Jane takes throw-away items and illustrates how they can be used to
create a host of covetable clothes and accessories. An old tie can be
turned into a purse, knitting needle holder, cute corsage and a belt.
Silk scarves can make a return as a sexy top or skirt, and T-shirts
as funky 40s-style turbans. 'Chic on a Shoestring' will take you
through - step-by-step - all you need to know to create fabulous
clothes and accessories you actually want to wear, and provide you
with lots of variations and inspiration to foster your own style. And
with advice on how to find useful treasures at markets, charity shops
and vintage stores, you will be making your own creations in no time.
