Dressing up is too much FUN and with Halloween just around the corner, hopefully I can inspire some exciting new ideas! Below is my step by step DIY Merida Costume from the Disney‘s Brave, which can be worn short & saucy or with a long, full skirt for a more authentic look. Merida Inspiration… This …
I know, I know, everyone and their mother has done a DIY cat ears project and tutorial, but none like this {maybe?} lol. I searched for a leather pair a little bit like this cat ear headband by Fleet Ilya {$518} but less like Bat Girl or Cat Woman {though they would work for those …
Flipping through my September issue of Bazaar from back to front, the way I always read magazines, I quickly spotted this gorgeous deep teal dress covered with small and large critters from the Lanvin Fall 2013 RTW collection and fell in love. While some of the critters are made of large gem stones, sewn directly …
Totally inspired by a kid’s Fall fashion editorial {see more here: Little Punks! Cute Fall Looks for Kids it’s the last photo} who had faux feather mohawks adorning their heads, I got busy thinking about how I could replicate the look and how on earth I could get it to stand upright on my head …
Last week, or maybe it was the week before, and inspired by a pretty photo of the back of a sweater closed with a bow on Pinterest, I pulled out two sweaters from my closet that I never wear to makeover, transform and adorn, with pretty bows. The one you see here did indeed receive …
Well, I forgot to take a before shot of me wearing this sweater, but you can see in the photo below that it was a simple crew neck, and it was a big snug and uncomfortable, and though I’ve had it for ages, I’ve never worn it. But it’s vintage. And I usually have a …
T-shirts are one of the most DIY-able items of them all. Their cotton jersey fabric is easy to cut, stretch, stitch on, and turn into just about anything you can imagine. I’ve made DIY necklaces from old t-shirts as well as a DIY belt, a cute DIY ruffled baby onesie, and even a DIY bag …
I fell in love with hair combs the other day after writing 18 Statement Hair Combs | Brooches for your Hair and was totally inspired to make a few. In all honesty, I had purchased a pack of plain hair combs about a year ago to do this DIY, but I just haven’t had the …
This Pearl & Safety Pin Necklace DIY by Honestly WTF is kind of amazing. Not only is it ridiculously easy to make, it’s ridiculously fabulous and looks like a million bucks. Especially compared to the original Tom Binns pearl and safety pin necklace spotted on a NET-A-PORTER staffer where they pulled inspiration from, which kind …
I’m in the middle of renovating one of our guest rooms {which I’m excited to share with you very soon} and needed a new ceiling fixture to replace the standard gold and glass “boob” which reside in almost all of our upstairs bedrooms. But 1. I needed it FAST and 2. I didn’t want to …
Years ago, after we watched “What the Bleep {do we know?}” for the first time, we were instantly taken by Water Crystals and Dr. Masaru Emoto‘s studies on how our thoughts and feelings affect our reality, and specifically, how they affect water. And since “WE” are made up of mostly water, that our thoughts and …
I’m not exactly sure what I’d use these for or where I’d hang them, but I love them. They’re probably best utilized at events but they’d be cute strung around a patio or deck or even together with little white lights or maybe hanging from a brown wood fence, or like beaded curteins to create …
I love when something can be used in so many ways, for so many purposes, and not just as fashion, but as decor as well. Scroll to the end to see how I’ve used and worn this fun and versatile {and sparkly} accessory. I mean, think of all the uses! How would you use/wear it? …
A few weeks ago, after what seemed like a never-ending decor battle with my console table design layout {I know, so dramatic}, I decided that the wall above it, which is part of it, needed something that was pretty enough to draw attention but not so much as to distract the eye. It seemed like …
When I spotted these socked heels on the Fall 2013 Alexander Wang RTW runway, I immediately thought it may offer a new and fun way to wear my heels out in these cold wintery months. Already wearing my leg warmers, I ran to my closet, slipped on my heels, folded my leg warmers under, aligned …
