Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen

I love (I think I think it is) Mary-Kate's dress in this photo.  (I can hardly tell them apart sometimes.)  Mary-Kate and Ashley have such a unique style which I love to follow.  They have quite the fashion sense which definitely shows in their collections also.

Amazing Jewelry from Etsy Accounts!!

Yesterday, I began my post by saying how much I enjoy creative people.  Today, I want to continue yesterdays post by showing more etsy accounts which have amazingly creative jewelry.
This brooch below is from "Hairy Sock," which has jewelry pieces which are made of clay.  Not only are the pieces cute, but they are subtle statement pieces.  
Next are my favorite pieces from "Lost Apostle."  These items are exactly my style.  They are different, weird and kind of scary.
 I really like "Day of the Dead" things, they remind me of Tim Burton movies.

These items are from "Zephora."  I am a big fan of the really cute little accessories, they are fun conversation pieces.



The freakiest for last.  These amazingly intricate necklaces and pendents are from "Twistedsistercrafts."  I am amazed at how real the eyes look, definitely a great statement piece!

Tanya Aguiniga- Amazing Accessories

I really enjoy creative people.  On the Urban Outfitters blog which I follow way to much; I found an article on Tanya Aguiniga.  Tanya is a furniture designer and accessory designer.  Her creations are incredibly intricate looking, and innovative...very innovative.  I saw the pictures of the rope bracelet and love it.  I really like massive and extreme accessories, anything that makes a statement.  I then went to her website, only to find this awesome necklace with a matching bracelet.  Her things are so fashion forward and chic.  Her furniture is also quite amazing.  She has a lot of talent, and I can appreciate how she uses her skills to the best of her ability.




                   Here is a close up of the necklace.                                Matching Bracelet.

Urban Outfitters

Yet another busy week at school, the fun never ends.  Today as I walked to my car to come home, I realized that I am so sick of the heat and humidity.  Anyone else ready for fall?  I want to wake up one morning and have to put on a coat and shiver as I walk to my car.  I want to wear my lace up boots, a oversized scarf and have my make-up last the whole day because I will not sweat it off half way through the day.  I can not wait for fall weather when the leaves change, we can open the windows in our house and drink hot coffee.  Fall is my favorite time of the year, I just hope it gets here soon.  Here are some items from Urban Outfitters which remind me of fall, and what I want to wear for fall.  These pictures are from their website.
An adorable and comfy hat.
A large scarf.
 A large tote.
 My signature v-neck, and a cute jacket.
Sorry for the tiny pictures, I could not find them any bigger.

Glitter Heels

Ever since I was a little girl, I have loved anything that has glitter on it.  I remember when I was about six years old I found a pair of white glitter shoes with a 1inch chunky heel.  They matched a dress of mine perfectly and I wanted to wear them non stop.  I guess the 90's really are coming back as glitter heels are now back in style.  I still really like them and would totally wear them.  I know where to find a few multi colored pairs, yet they would not be to practical for school.... yet I wonder....  Let me know what you think of this trend.  Love it?  Hate it?
Miu Miu booties

What I have been up to....

The past few weeks I have been a little skimpy on my posts.  Many of you know I have started school at my four year school where I am focusing on fashion design.  I love it and am so excited, though I have had a lot of work and papers to write, hence the short posts.  Last weekend was my sisters bridal shower, and the past two weeks have just been jammed packed with school stuff on top of it all.  If you are also wondering why I have not posted many sewing projects, that is because I am sewing little samples of techniques in my sewing class and also making my bridesmaid dress for my sisters wedding.  I can't wait to share the final product with you all.  I just need a full weekend to finish it, I can hardly find time.  Hope that everyone has a great, safe and fun weekend.  I am so ready for it!

I have to study a lot, so here is just a short post.  Tavi has an adorable magazine cover on L'Officiel.  I have followed her blog for a long time now, maybe two years.  I am so happy for her; she has such a bright future!

Christopher Bailey for Burberry Prorsum

Christopher Bailey can do no wrong.  His clothes are always innovative, and offer something different from his other lines; all the while keeping with his design aesthetic.  For spring he created several fabulous cut and fitted coats, skirts and dresses.  I love the color, patterns and the way that he manipulated the fabric into fabulous geometric shapes.  These clothes are so interesting to look at as there is so much to look at.  The use of weaving, crochet and braiding, is also simply gorgeous.  The bags and shoes are also great, got to love it all.

 Christopher Bailey always has great mens clothing.

Outerwear from Forever 21

Today during a break at school, my sister, my Mom and I all went to Forever 21, just for fun.  My Mom got me two adorable $1.50 necklaces, one a silver spoon, the other a gold fork.  I like how the two clash a bit, yet they go together so well.  As we were walking around I found an amazing sequined hoodie which I just love.  I get obsessed with the oddest things and I love this hoodie.  They had it on display with a jean vest over it and a cute t-shirt under all of it; so cute.  I also found a ton of adorable leather jackets and fell in love with a red one, which had all of these little metal studs on it.  The red leather and studs reminded me so much of last years Balmain fall line so much.  If you need new clothes then I suggest heading out to Forever 21, they have great sales and plenty of cute items.
