Chic Happens

It comes so easily to fashionistas, but are well aware that we are chic 100% of the time. 

Love this bloomies ad! One of their many ads from their 100% Bloomingdale's Spring Campaign!

OOTD Please!

Check out my OOTD! 

With Spring approaching I can start to bring out all my fun print collared shirts. 

One of my favorites is this cheetah top, because we all know cheetah print is now a neutral in the fashion world. 

This J Crew shirt is a classic in my closet, paired with Banana Republic straight leg jeans and H&M black flats. I paired this look with some pearl jewelry and some gold arm candy to finish it off. I left my top un-tucked and wore flat shoes for a more casual look for class, but you can dress it up with a tuck-in, belt and heels for a night out. 

Personally, I love bold colors, prints & patterns, but if you're more conservative, try to go with a less crazy print. Maybe solid colors with printed cuffs, and eventually you can work your way up to bold, comfortably. 

I love to go out with a fashionable BANG each and every day, so if your're like me, bring on the BOLD! 

Stay Cheetahlicious! XOXO

Spice Up your UpDo!

Calling all DIY and hair enthusiasts! 

Here is a great way to turn a drab up-do into a fab hair creation!

All you need is a pack of bobbi pins, some craft-store necklace pearls (various sizes) and thin craft wire. 

The picture above shows you exactly how to make these cute hair accessories, but I'll share with you some of my tricks too! 

First, I would spray the end of the bobbi pin you're using with a bit of hairspray to give it a little stick. Then, pick the desired size pearl and thread about 4 inches of wire through the hole. Thread the bobbi pin with the same wire that the pearl is attached and begin to wrap the wire through the bobbi pin tightly. Continue wrapping tight until you feel that the pearl is secure in place and cut off the excess wire. Spray it once more with hairspray and let it sit for a while for the hairspray to set into all the cracks. VOILA, you have made your first fashionista Pearl-Bobbi! 

You can also do this with any other type of bead you like, but I usually stick with the pearls. Always a classic and they match with almost everything!

Hope this was helpful! 

Stay Crafty! XOXO

Make a Statement while staying Warm

Make a statement with bold printed coats this fall and winter. 

Animal prints are very in this season, and that doesn't just apply to your shoes and tops. Bold printed, animal printed or bright colored jackets are a super cute statement piece to spice up your outfit as the weather gets cool. 

When we have to resurrect our jackets after the warm summer weather, I know we always dread having to cover up our fashionable outfits with dreary coats to stay warm. 

If you find a super cute coat, like the one above, you can stay fashionable but still stay warm while you take on the cold weather. 

Since these bold coats are a new trend, they may be on the expensive end, but they are definitely an investment, because they're a classic and will stay in style forever, so spend a little extra and I promise you won't be disappointed! 

Stay Bold! XOXO
