Several months ago I saw the above pair of hot pink shoes, and I was disappointed when I realized that they were sold out. As the months went by I kept wishing that they were part of my wardrobe, so I decided to make my own. I gave an inexpensive pair of flats a makeover […]
Sunday Street Style
With all the fur in this week’s street style roundup, I feel like I need to mention that I’d never endorse buying fur. While I like the look of it, I’d never wear anything other than faux (or possibly vintage, but I can’t really stomach that, either). So here’s hoping that these cozy-looking ladies are […]
DIY Idea: Refined Studs

Spring 2012: Minty Fresh
Lately I’ve been taken with the pretty pastel shades popping up everywhere for spring. I made a Pinterest board to catalog the looks I love, and I noticed a lot of mint. Which is not surprising, considering that I love both the flavor and the color of mint (just look at my blog header and […]

In honor of Valentine’s Day next week, I made these printable cards for you to give to anyone who appreciates a little silly romantic sentiment. Only two of them actually say anything about Valentine’s Day, though, so there’s no reason the other […]

Outfit Post: Pattern Mixing Lite
The only reason this qualifies as pattern mixing is that the shirt underneath my sweater has tiny little black polka-dots. It’s subtle, but technically it counts! I’ll try to be more adventurous with my patterns next time, though.
