DIY Friday: Animal Planters

I've seen these animal planter around but never really gave them much thought, that was until I saw a step-by-step DIY project on one of my favorite blogs, Love Meagan. I always love her fun projects for some reason I love the randomness of this project along with the playfulness of it. The best part about it, you can choose any animal or dinosaur and even paint them any colors that go with your home. Click here to see more on how this fun project is done.

Burgundy Hats

After obsessively searching fashion bogs hours upon hours I started to notice a little trend literally popping up on top of so many fashion bloggers little heads. These Burgundy hats are striking and definitely grab attention. Not mention I love how they seam like they wouldn’t necessarily go with an outfit but these bloggers so seemingly work effortlessly.

Bloggers Attend A Dinner Party by Kelly Wearstler

Recently, several bloggers have been sharing their experience at a dinner party at the house of Kelly Wearstler. Right away, I am beyond jealous. Everything that Kelly creates, designs, or even touches is amazing. The dinner party held by Mrs. Wearstler was to celebrate her new ready-to-wear line, that seriously to die for. I have loved, and envied every photo shared from various bloggers sites that they took from the party. From the decor, which as you can imagine looked amazing, all the way down to the place settings looked fabulous. Perhaps the best part about it, the invited bloggers got take home one of Kelly's clutch's from her new collection. It's to die for!

Those lucky bloggers in attendance; the Beckerman Bite Plate sisters, Because I'm Addicted, Karla's Closet, Who What Wear, Sincerely Jules, Thats Chic, Late Afternoon, Bleach Black, Mrs Lilien, Song of Style, Cupcakes and Cashmere.

Although I am clearly jealous of these bloggers, I enjoy all of their blogs and have of course drooled over the photos they have shared from the night.

Gold Spray Painted Fashion....Again

So last week I posted a sort of potential DIY project to revamp your jeans with gold spray paint. I originally found the idea over at A Pair and A Spare, and then found several fashion bloggers rockin’ gold pants that could easily resemble a spray painted pair. Anyways, I then found this DIY project over at the wonderful Runway DIY. The always talented blogger took inspiration from a Stella McCartney gold sweater. To get her sweat she took a can of spray paint and introduced it to a swat. The end result, another beautiful piece of spray painted fashion.

Affordable blogger fashion

Despite what fashion bloggers say, they don’t match up to the everyday girls fashion affordability. I love Niki over at Tiny Sailor for her impeccable fashion and style at every price. She makes things from places from forever 21 and target seem so much more expensive and high fashion. I give this fashionista more then just an A+ for not just her style but her realistic clothing budget. Here are some great outfits that fit everyone budget.

Dress from Target (2 years ago!) Love it!

Top and necklace from Forever 21, skirt from Urban Outfitters, shoes from Old Navy

Sweater and belt thrifted, skirt and collard shirt from Forever 21,  shoes from Steve Madden

Sweater and shorts from Forever 21, shoes from Wal-Mart!

Fully Clothed In The Nude

Like a recent post from last week I showed you all about bloggers in bright colored pants. This time, I'm going to show you some great bloggers is shades of nudes, tans, and creams. Yes, this color does sometimes get forgotten or over looked but its really a great color when paired with warmer tones. Here are some great looks with nude touches...in color that it. Oh, and perfect for more fall inspiration looks.

Sister Act

Two sisters make fashion blogging a family affair. Two girls (sometimes their mom) with one greatly distinct style that seemingly fits their spunky portrayed personalities perfectly. I love visiting their blog; Beckerman Bite Plate, for great funky inspiration to lighten the mood of the sometimes too serious world of fashion blogging. Here are just some bits and pieces from their amazingly fun blog.

Shoes on Display

So, as I have a serious addiction to shoes, I really loved the post on Song Of Style offering an idea on how to display your shoes using molding on the wall. I love this idea, although it would only work for heals. But that’s not a huge problem here....Anyways, I loved this idea so much I wanted to re-share it. Enjoy!

Great Interior Design Blogs

Personally, I can obsess over interior blogs all day long, possible more then fashion blogs. I know i don’t share much on interior design but I wanted to take a moment and share some great design blogs that I love. So get to clicking and enjoy.

Blogger Spotlight: Mrs. Lilien

No cheesy self photo shoots here, just great Photoshop skills matched with impeccable taste, and an eye for the best. This blogger, post after post delivers great themed photos of great items with anything from clothes, to cars, to food, all conveniently themed or even color coated. Love, it all. To me, the work from Mrs. Lilien is a design obsessed playground. Everything she posts is great. Okay, enough drooling, I think you get the point. Anyways, here a few recent photo’s that I stolen my heart forcing me to share them with you. As always, ENJOY!
