Stylelicious has the remedy for plain wardrobe pieces. I jazz up a skirt and tank with a touch of tulle. Host Jesse Kelly-Landes adds some sass to some simple slippers. Host Jennifer Perkins has an idea to put some personality into your underwear.
When: Saturday March 28th 4:30amET
Episode: Time for a Change When wardrobe pieces get old and tiresome, give them a new lease on life! I’ll show you how to revamp an old sweater with a cool needle-felting design. Jennifer Perkins makes a hilarious handbag with girl’s training pants. A tired skirt gets a makeover with fishing line and a serger.

Watch as she gives us a primer.
