"If you&amp;#x27;ve got $30, some cheap necklaces that are collecting dust, and an itch for a new DIY project, then we&amp;#x27;ve got your cute new boots! Jen shares her style secret with us in honor of today&amp;#x27;s Reader Appreciation Day, after the jump! &amp;quot;Take a pair of plain old black moto boots and glam them up by adding chain necklaces around them,&amp;quot; Jen writes to us. &amp;quot;As an added benefit, if you shop at popular chain stores, your customization will ensure that you wont run into anyone on the street wearing the same thing as you!&amp;quot; Over at her blog, Glam Mafia, Jen tells the story of buying these $30 boots from Forever 21--&amp;quot;they&amp;#x27;re okay, but a little boring for my taste. To make them more my style, I decided to add some more metal to them.&amp;quot; She worked her magic with a $7 necklace from Walmart (just unfasten a few of the links with pliers or tweezers, slip the necklace through the loop on the back of the boot, and re-attach to fit your ankle). &amp;quot;It gives them a little more pop and now I don&amp;amp;#8217;t have to worry about running into a million other girls with the same boots as so often happens when I&amp;amp;#8217;m wearing stuff from Forever 21,&amp;quot; Jen says.
