witchy black dress

Bewitched: Black Dress, Black Cat

in Living, Style on 10/20/16

Can you keep a secret? I know he can. This black dress is everything. It has a dramatic keyhole front, bell sleeves, and a criss-cross corset style back that laces down and loops into the base of the skirt. The ties leave a long tasseled bow that drapes down to the bottom of the maxi-length skirt. This is one of those… View Post

DIY Wire Wrapped Beaded Hoop Earrings

in DIY, Style on 09/29/16

Statement earrings are so fun. What better way is there to make a statement than with a unique beaded hoop that is both modern and organic. I love the way these diy wire wrapped beaded hoop earrings combine structure and chaos with a firm smooth shape delicately strung in natural stone and shell materials. A threaded hoop closure keeps the… View Post

Off Shoulder Floral Top

in Style on 09/24/16

Fall is officially here, and along with it my new favorite off shoulder floral top! This month is so all burgundy everything, and it makes a great neutral base for a print. The vintage-inspired floral print has a linear element that keeps it looking a little more contemporary than some of the other big romantic vintage floral prints. Florals are more of… View Post

The Best Plaid Plans – Fall Plaid Style

in Fashion, Style on 09/10/16

Fall is officially here, which means it’s about time to break out that fall plaid. It may not be quite warm enough for flannel in Texas yet, but it’s at least time to move that to the front of the closet. My favorite fall plaids this year are red, running the gamut from a spicy sriracha to a mulled burgundy…. View Post

DIY Macrame Braided Friendship Bracelet

in DIY, Style on 09/08/16

Macrame friendship bracelets aren’t just a summer thing! After Labor Day, fall colors suddenly flood our closets. Rainbow friendship bracelets make for such summer fun, but neutral and fall colors are a little more versatile for layering as the temperatures start to drop. This diy macrame braided friendship bracelet only takes about 30 minutes to make and a lifetime to… View Post

diy ladder necklace

DIY Ladder Necklace

in DIY, Style on 08/23/16

This diy ladder necklace tutorial with quartz is a necklace you can make that you won’t be tired of wearing in like 3 weeks. You may have seen the ladder bracelet tutorial, where beads are threaded between two pieces of leather. A ladder necklace is a similar construction concept, only a little sturdier for your neck. Beads are threaded on… View Post

diy flower lace choker

DIY Flower Lace Choker

in DIY, Style on 08/16/16

This simple DIY flower lace choker combines two of my favorite things from the nineties: daisies and chokers. I made my flower lace choker from a crochet daisy lace I found at Joann’s Fabrics, but any kind of lace will work for this project. Shop around for the different kinds of lace at the fabric store near you. This daisy chain was… View Post

DIY Choker Lariat Necklace

in DIY, Style on 08/10/16

This choker lariat necklace style is everywhere right now. Chokers are way back. I haven’t worn a choker since middle school, really, so it feels like an exciting new wardrobe piece. They’re a great accent to all of the high neck and off shoulder styles right now. This choker diy imitates multiple wraps with crimp ribbon findings that make an adjustable clasp… View Post

Wear It Now: Fall Styles

in Style on 07/23/16

Even though it’s so hot outside, summer is starting to wind down as fall styles come flooding into stores. It can be hard to think about adding layers when the heat makes me feel so tired and heavy. Hair, clothes, bags – everything feels heavy and I just want to take a nap. Thank goodness we have air conditioning in… View Post

diy double wrap leather beaded bracelet

DIY Double Wrap Leather Beaded Bracelet

in DIY, Style on 07/10/16

A double wrap leather beaded bracelet uses a technique called “laddering”, where beads are threaded between leather cord, like a ladder. These bracelets were popularized in the nineties with Chan Luu’s double wrap pearl bracelets. The lustrous sheen of a pearl does complement the sleekness of leather well, but I love the way these bracelets look with organic gemstones, sparkle beads,… View Post
