Because YOU requested... The Toilet Paper Gown

Portia D.'s good friend was getting married last Thursday. At the bachelorette party, Portia D. found herself in the middle of the toilet paper contest.

She WON!

With this...

Everything is made from toilet paper, see!

Even the necklace!

The next day, she wore it as a skirt by just getting rid of the top. Cute as hell!

Top: Rue 21

Shoes: Fioni

Out of What?--Junk Mail

Deporian was given the challenge of creating interesting and unique outfits for an ABC party. What's an ABC party? Most college kids will know that it's an Anything But Clothes Party.

But there was ONE STIPULATION-- The outfit must be made out of materials EVERYONE has in their home.

And through much deliberation, Portia D. decided to create a garment out of Junk Mail.

And here's how it happened.

Step One: The Body

Cut Mail into long strips and weave together. Hold the pieces down with glue (preferably from HOT GLUE GUN)

This becomes the main part of the dress. Make sure it covers from your breasts to your hips! And give yourself extra length when shaping it around your body. REMINDER: It will look bulky!

Step Two: The Tassels

Use envelopes for the tassels. Cut the sides of the envelope so that it is open. Then cut strips up the envelope like this.

DO NOT cut all the way up the envelope or it will just become small strips of paper. The point is to have a BLOCK of strips that are connected!

Glue two or three layers underneath each other to create length, fullness and well... layers.

Step Three: Decorations

It's good to start with this little guy. Made from cutting mail into a long thin strip and twisting.

Then you can braid three pieces together or twirl them in a circle to make buttons.

Portia D. also glued some of the twists into the skirt!

Then you glue it on.

What's an outfit, without accessories?

PS, the belt helps give the dress shape.

Belt: Rue 21

Custom Necklace: Biloxi Bleau by Yvon Dion

Custom Bracelet: Biloxi Bleau by Yvon Dion

Shoes: Baker

Shades: Beauty Supply Store

She's ready for that ABC party... but she can never sit down again.

So what should she wear to the next ABC party?

Don't forget to rate and share this if you thought it was interesting!

11 Ways to Wear an Infinity Scarf! (Surprising)

Because of economic downfall and her family being committed to an asylum, Bea Dreary now has nothing but a tank, daisy dukes and a circle scarf!

With the help of her new lesbian lover, Bea discovers 11 different ways that scarves are no longer just for necks!

1. Monday's look--The Bodice

LizBeth returns as Bea Dreary

Made by double tying the scarf around her body.

2. Tuesday's Look--The Mini dress

Double tied around her body then pulled down. Then it was adjusted to her body.

3. Wednesday's Look--The Pencil Skirt. Bea had an interview with McDonald's. GOOD LUCK!

Double tied then pulled down to her hips.

4. Thursday's Look: The Belted Tunic. Bea has found a belt!

She put on the scarf like she was wearing a jacket and covered her breasts. Then placed the scarf up like a hood and belted around her waist.

5. Friday's Look: The Shrug 1: At the Beach

She placed the scarf once on her body, twisted an arm hole to put her arm through, then twisted another arm hole.

6. Saturday's Look: The Shrug 2: At the Beach, Day 2

Instead of twisting two arm holes, she put the extra fabric over her arm.

7. Sunday's Look: The Shrug 3: At the Beach, Day 3

She placed the scarf loosely on her body, then twisted a neck hole and placed her head through. She adjusted to cover her breasts.

8. Monday's Look: The Flowing Dress

She let the scarf hang loosely on her body, pulled out completely, then folded the extra fabric in front until it fit. This created ruffles. Then she belted it.

9. Tuesday's Look: The Halter Dress, for her date!

She placed the scarf loosely over her body, belted at the small of the waist. Then she tied the top parts around her neck in a halter.

10. Wednesday's Look: The Flowing Skirt

The scarf hung loosely and pulled out around her body, then belted at the waist. Then she laid the extra fabric down to create an extra layer of skirt.

That belt really comes in handy!

11. Thursday's Look: The Cardigan

She put the scarf loosely on her body, then placed the front behind her head and adjusted until the scarf looked like a cape in the back.

Tank: Kohls

Shorts: American Eagle

Scarf: Philadelphia

Belt: Tex by Max Azria
