DIY/Inspired

These cold, rainy months come with lots of creative juices. Plus money saving tips that can help everyone around the holiday seasons. (Or help people like me who like to shop for themselves as well as other people.)

I've been really intrigued by all the metal collar necklaces and detachable metal collar tips on button up shirts, so I mimicked with what studs I had at home to make a similar western-effect.


This necklace can be found at http://dannijo.com/

I also love all the asymmetrical dresses and skirts seen all over, so I made my own simple version of one using a basic men's white t-shirt.



I've got a lot more ideas in mind, so be prepared for many more DIY fashion updates! xo

Spring Lust

So over the past few months, I've become consumed with certain trends.  These are my must have's (or must create) for Spring;


Elin Kling's neck ring design created for H&M (only sold in Sweden, which is a huge disappointment).. but I'm dead set on finding a similar design. 

White blazer. I've been unlucky finding this perfect little number.. the ones I do seem to stumble across are either embellished with something, or cropped WAY too short.. one day soon I will have the perfect white blazer.

Crystal bullet necklace. I've found a couple designs on Etsy, but alas all others found via interweb are WAY out of my price range... I foresee a DIY project on the way...

CABLE KNIT SHORTS. Best creation ever made in my opinion. You get the comfort, the style, and the warmth!! Urban is selling a fantastic pair priced at $138 (ouch) which I cannot justify. I'm needing to find a pair of skilled knitting hands to make me my own custom pair!!

Ear Cuffs. Adorned in their own right.. and just plain cool. I haven't seen anything quite like these ones, however. 

A leather bustier. So simple & sexy. Paired with high-waisted patterned drop crotch pants.. how could you go wrong?

Candy colored oxfords. So cute, and so fitting for spring/summer months.

Black lipstick. I love the severity of this look when paired with camel/nude pieces.

Leather shorts. I don't really think it's necessary for me to explain why I need a pair of these.

Jeffrey Campbell's Litas. The perfect combination of tough & feminine... can be worn with practically anything. 

Velvet dress. I've already a pair of leggings that I wear way too often. I could live & breath in velvet for the rest of my life!


Turbans, turbans, turbans! These head accessories are so fantastic. Especially while you're trying to grow out your fringe like I am at the moment. Or if you're just plain having a bad hair day. 



What are your favorite trends at the moment?
