DIY Louboutin's

You might not think of yourself as crafty, but this project from ...love, Maegan (reblogged from Blah, Blah, Blahg) is totally doable and such a perfect and fun addition to your shoe collection for this summer! It would be a great project for the long holiday weekend:


I have some black strappy heels I can dig up at my parents' house that would be perfect for this! I can't wait to get started!

This also gets me thinking about somehow recreating these next...

Oh so self-involved - The Celeste Edition

After my post about items that share my name, my friend, Celeste, told me she did some searching and there was absolutely nothing cute named after her. Well, I was determined to prove her wrong, so I did some searching on my own...

Look what I found!

Even though each item could be considered bland because of their coloring, what makes them all great is how each item has some sort of texture, pattern, or shine. I love combining otherwise untextured, "plain" outfits with accessories high in texture or other unique quality. It's a really nice contrast and makes your accessories pop even more than usual. (Oh, and just in case you missed them, those ankle boots are to-die-for, not to mention affordable at $80. That alligator bag, on the other hand? $6,500. *gulp* That's okay, though. Real reptile skin accessories sort of give me the willies.)

Post a comment with your name and I'll track down some items for you! Come on, don't be shy!

Weekend Hideaway

I wish I had a secret hide-out to escape to for the weekend. Even better? An outfit to match the secret hide-out!

All I can say is, I'm so happy it's Friday. Enjoy your weekend!
