Is it a belt or is it a belt.....

Innovations .... the key to many kickass things you see today in front of your eyes, trust me you don't have to be Einstein or Newton to invent or innovate. An eye for fashion and good observation skills is all what you need... I was amazed myself when i converted a useless kept thing into a chic belt


I had bought a bag some time back and discovered this detachable strap inside it which could convert my hand bag into a sling bag. But i never really appreciated it and hence it found a lonely corner in my wardrobe. So once when i was hunting for an orange belt in my cupboard, i saw this belt like thing in a corner .....

I picked it up and said to myself " Wait a minute, this can be my new belt". And very excitedly i took it, adjusted it and tied it around my waist. And believe you me not even a single person realized that this is not a waist belt.

So, go clean your cupboard right now and you 'll find many unused things like these, convert them into something fab and be your own fashion guru....

Be innovative, Be stylish!!!
