Happy Monday Lovecats! I was just getting ready to prepare a Monday Motivation post when I randomly ended up on Pinterest and spotted this lace and chain finger glove and swiftly added it to my DIYs category… when I clicked on it, though, to see the source, thinking it would be handmade from Etsy or …
DIY Beading Jewelry Kit by Saskia & What I Made
I must admit, of all the DIYs I’ve done in my life, jewelry and beading has never really been high on my list. The only reason really is that I didn’t know how to do it. I never really learned or taught myself to DIY clasps and closures and so I avoided the whole category …
New Frames by David Kind | Eyeglasses Made Easy
I’ve always wanted eyeglasses. My mom has worn glasses since I can remember and my brother needed them at the age of five, so my whole tribe wore glasses but me. Though I was grateful for my good vision, I felt left out. And then as I grew up, I wanted glasses to wear as …

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 …
Palm Tree Print Pouches & Tropical Sunset Reflections
Tropical prints are a huge trend this Summer, but I’m loving these photographic digital prints vs the illustrated version we’ve seen for years. Not only do they SCREAM Summer, and are perfect for your essentials, they’re a great way to ease into a print you may not be ready to adorn your entire body with …

In My Closet: Pulling Glam Red Carpet {Style} Looks…
I’m driving down to LA tomorrow for another little filming session with Tide & BlogHer, and while I have a million and one other things to do, I’m pulling red carpet looks from my closet to translate into wearable Spring style. Here are a few closeup shots of my {messy} closet {at the moment} and …
DIY Victorian Beaded Lace Ribbon Choker
I recently {and finally!} started the Downton Abbey series… and not 2 episodes in, I was itching to DIY a fabulous choker inspired by their attire. For this particular look though, I was inspired more by the high necklines of many of their dresses rather than a necklace specifically. But I’ve already got ideas for …

Collars & neck accessories are on trend right now… actually, they have been for quite some time and I just love the extra detail they add to a shirt or outfit. So fun for Fall. In 2008 I made a little black lace collar {seen below on the red shirt} and listed it for sale …
Trend Spotting: The Pageboy Cap & Newsboy Hat

French Pouf Accessory : Pin, Belt, Hair from Ban.do Okay, to be honest, this wasn’t exactly a reader request MIY but when Holly {who is planning her wedding} posted about it here, I was very inspired to make it for her as a little wedding gift. But since I couldn’t find the exact peachy-nude chiffon …
Neck Candy : Found : Vintage Original vs New
I’ve been sort of lusting over all the long pendant necklaces from my Neck Candy post and last week while perusing The Sherman Oaks Antique Mall again, I spotted this amazing gold circles necklace with little dangling plum colored stones and what could have most possibly been the inspiration behind Theodora & Callum’s Majorca Necklace …
