My DIY game has been strong lately and I’m loving it! The summer months always leave me a bit uninspired in the DIY department but once I start feeling fall in the air and seeing the fall runway collections and thinking about fall fashion, my creative juices just start swirling and I’ve been trying to …
I was initially inspired by a a pearl ribbon choker necklace Kristen Bell was wearing in one of her Instagram stories and once I made it realized it could really be so many more things! I love DIYs like that and have made a few, but this one is feminine and pretty and I just …
I was scrolling through my Instagram feed last Thursday or Friday and Chiara (creator of The Blond Salad) popped up in this adorable pearled hoodeie sweatshirt which is from her 2017/2018 collection… and I immediately thought I HAVE TO MAKE THIS. I don’t think hers is available for purchase yet and mine most probably does …
I randomly clicked on Gigi Hadid’s Twitter account the other day and noticed her header photo was of just her knees, wearing jeans with strings of pearls within the rips in her jeans… AND I LOVED IT! I’ve done a lot of pearl embellished DIYs, and even a pair of DIY Pearl Embellished Jeans, but …
Inspiration Paige Denim Dolly Embellished Jimmy Jimmy Skinny Jeans $359.00 Scrolling through Shopbop‘s “What’s New” section, I happened upon these cute pearl embellished jeans by Paige Denim and immediately knew I had a DIY on my hands… AND I knew had all the materials on-hand to complete it ~ so I got to work. Of …
I saw this adorably cute cut-out sleeve and collar/pearl t-shirt on a model on Adam Selman‘s Instagram feed and fell instantly in love… and obviously, my next thought was, I CAN DIY THAT… and so I did. I have no idea who makes it or who the designer is, so if anyone knows, do tell …
Flipping through this month’s Marie Claire magazine, I spotted this fabulously asymmetrical blue bulky beaded necklace {pg. 112} and was immediately inspired to make one of my own. These dripping beaded statement necklaces called Diorganic Leafy Waterfalls were shown on the Dior Spring/Summer 2014 Runway, but it wasn’t until I saw one lying flat in …
I’m so excited to be DIYing again! Though I’ve done a few here and there, it feels like it’s been SO LONG since I’ve had time to be open for new inspiration and creativity AND THEN have time to make it too. So fun! I love a good accessory that works for so many different …
Collars and embellished collars have been making their rounds on the internet and blogs for the past couple of years now. I think we can point our fingers at Miu Miu and their pretty kitty & swallow collars for starting the trend. But because I thought I saw so many refashioned collars and collar necklaces …
I’m always worried now when I have an idea for a DIY that one of the other DIY bloggers has already done it. Sadly I don’t have time any more to look at too many blogs so please know that if someone else has done this, it’s by complete coincidence that I have too. I …
My original idea was just to easily string these jumbo pearls through the ribbon, knot either side, and call it a day. The pearl holes, however, weren’t large enough for my glitter ribbon to fit through and I didn’t want to spend all day trying to make the holes larger. So instead I went with …
Flipping through the October 2011 InStyle Magazine, I came across Lauren Hutton’s picks and found this delicate pearl necklace from Calypso Sea and loved the contrast of the raw leather with the pretty pearls. I went to my local bead shop to find some really great pearls but they were closed so I used the …
I love this pretty chain, fabric, and pearl Lanvin Necklace but for $595 I thought I could definitely make my own! It comes in a few really pretty colors but I had a similar fabric in this nude-y fleshy tone that worked perfectly so I went with it. It’s not terribly difficult, but you will …
