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

Look Stylin' for the Holidays!

Everyone loves the holidays for more reasons than one, especially the fashionistas! 
This is a time of year when there are a continuous stream of get-togethers and parties to get dolled up for. 

This holiday season beads, sparkles, sequins and intricate dresses are SO in. 
Whether you're attending a low key Christmas party or a high class New Years bash, you can never go wrong with a dress or top that fits the theme. 

Dress it up this holiday season with some glitzy and glamorous outfits! 

Stay Sparkly! 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

Perfect Fall Outfit

Today is going to be short, sweet and stylish!
I wanted to share my go-to perfectly seasonal outfit for fall.
All you need is 4 main pieces:
1) A stylish scarf
2) A simple sweater
3) Jeans or leggings
4) Riding boots
Throw this outfit together, mix and match the colors and you are set to conquer the day in a fashionable manor. You can spice it up with boot socks (you can find how to make DIY boot socks in a past post) or some cute jewelry, style your hair and you are good to go.
Not every cute outfit requires a ton of energy, so here is a quick, easy fix for a cute fall outfit. Throw this together if you're in a rush or don't know what to wear!

Stay Cute! XOXO

No More Floppy Boots

DIY Boot Fillers! 

Calling all riding boot lovers, here's a practical, simple and cheap fix for your boots! 

Pool noodles are the perfect shape and size to fill your boots to keep them in great shape for as long as possible. All you have to do is but a few and cut them down to the size of your boots. 

I've been using blow-up boot fillers and magazines, but this is definitely my new go-to fill. I know we all have those favorite pair of boots, so if you store them right they'll last forever. 

Hope this helps all of the fashionistas that love their riding boots! 

Stay Shapely! XOXO
