Finally, the sun has broke through what seems like weeks of grey skies.  Given the current sunny state, which may or may not last about an hour, I think its safe to say many people are counting down to summer ( official date of Friday, June 21st).  And that means….summer fashion.

Now summer does have fashion ( at least a little), although sometimes it appears most people equate summer with one outfit: cutoffs, tank top, and flip-flops. But just in case you’re willing to step outside of this staple southern outfit, here are a few trends to test!

Weekend DIY Project: From the Heart

May 6, 2013

Level2_Childhood_Safety_Mom_Daughter_Holding_Hands

This Sunday is Mother’s Day, and while I always rack my brain to come up with something for Mom, she always tells me the same thing, “I just want your love.” Now that I am a mom, I understand more what she means by that. While bling is nice, I would much rather have something that was made from the heart. Read the rest of this entry »

What to Wear to that Upcoming Wedding!

May 1, 2013

weddingThe first day of May marks the beginning of Wedding season ( and what a long one it is, through to October!). If you’ve been lucky enough to be invited to attend someone’s upcoming nuptials I’m sure your deliberating on what to wear!

Picking out an outfit for any event can be a process, but more important events like weddings require more energy and effort.

A huge part in deciding what to wear for a wedding depends upon the formality of it. Here are a few tips to help you determine what the best outfit is for that upcoming wedding.

Weekend DIY Project: Perfect Your Inner Perfectionist

April 30, 2013

a girls 2I was only half kidding a few posts back when I said that Pinterest makes me feel like a failure. I have a healthy love/hate relationship with Pinterest. I love love love the creativity and inspiration I find with every search. Yet, I sometimes feel like I’m not worthy to hold a candle to the rest of the Pinterexperts. I think I’m a crafty person and I know I’m a thrifty person, but there are times when I doubt my ability. The perfectionist in me shouts out – it needs to be better! Read the rest of this entry »
