Woodsy




This is my outfit from few days ago. I have just been so busy that I haven't had a chance to share it yet! On Thursday I went out to dinner with a friend and then we went to see A Chorus Line, which was excellent. Today I went thrifting, I only picked up few things though, including a vintage hat, and a piece for jewelry. As well as some bananna chips and some cherry soda for lunch.

I got this dress a few weeks ago at a sale at Old Navy, I love it so much and it was only four dollars. I paired it with the cardigan and tights for a neutral look. I thought that the best way to complete the outfit was with the deer pin that I made and a necklace that I made as well. I wore this outfit to class and then out to lunch at my favorite deli market.

DIY Wednesday: Make a Mobile



It's DIY Wednesday...better late than never at 11:21 right! This week I thought that it would be fun to make a mobile for my room, and you could really put anything on it..but I had a plethora of feathers left over from last weeks DIY and thought that they would be perfect! All you need is some dowel rods, string, and whatever you are wanting your mobile to consist of..which is in this case feathers. I think that it is a great addition to my room and I absolutely love it! I hope that this inspires you! Happy DIY'ing!!!

DIY Wednesday: Feather Earrings



For today's DIY I made feather earrings. As some of you may know, my ears are not pierced, and you may be wondering, why earrings? Well, someone placed an order for them for next month, and I wanted to practice earrings with what I had lying around. I suppose I will have to give away the results of this little endeavor. They are super cute and super easy. I think that they have a very bohemian, summary feel. All you will need for this project are feathers, wire, and the parts to an earring. You can buy all of these at your local craft store. Simply shape the feathers how you want them, and put them together in your chosen arrangement. Then take a few inches of wire and begin wrapping it around the feathers. Make sure that you get all the feathers in the arrangement. Once you have about an inch of wire left, attach the ear piece and shape. Finally, wrap any leftover wire around the feathers, then, Enjoy!

Happy DIY'ing!!

Walk About Town




Hello, dear readers! I hope that you are all having a fabulous Sunday afternoon! I am going to play a little catch up today and share my photos from Friday as opposed to today's outfit! I went to a cookout at my grandparents today, and the weather was absolutely perfect! It is supposed to get ever warmer as the week goes on and I can't wait! I ran errands on Friday and took a walk about town. It was such a lovely day and the weather was so sunny and perfect. I intended to post these on Friday night, but every second has been filled since then! It's been super busy! It was a great time though!

Concept Board




I finally finished my concept board last night and I could not be more thrilled. It was such a time consuming process, but it was well worth it and such a fun project! My drawings aren't too top notch, but I tried! The theme was Garden Party, and I was inspired by The Secret Garden as well as a bit of Mad Men style. I would love to wear any of these clothes, now I'll just have to make them!

P.S...sorry about the photo quality, I took them on my phone right before I turned it in!
