Fancy Feet: Post 1.

Hello Friends of Fashion!

It has been far too long. Hope you all have enjoyed these past few weeks and have been able to add summer enhancements to your closets without breaking the bank. For me, this past month has been filled with summer events that have kept me away for a while. Unfortunately, plans for a busy August will most likely continue to keep me away. However, it will be an excellent month filled with party planning, weddings, and concerts.

As I may be MIA for most of the upcoming month, I felt I should leave you with a taste of what is to come later this year... This post is a preview for those of you who are, what I like to call, "Shoe-a-holics." ;)

Sometimes, I find shoes at thrift stores that seem as though they just need a splash of personal adornment. Other times, shoes that I already own begin to seem repetitive and just need a bit of upgrading. Often times, I simply crave a shoe that offers a unique style and a touch of personality. Being a lover of crafts and fashion, it was fun and easy to discover new ways to fancy up my feet and I am eager to share them with you!

I invite you to "step" in to the magic of sprucing up your shoes.

Step 1: Find a pair of simple shoes. Look in your closet, at thrift shops, or in the clearance section of your favorite store. Anything simple will work: Flats, Wedges, Stilettos, Sandals, etc.

Step 2: Add details with ribbon, buttons, fabric flowers, fabric scraps, feathers, bows, etc. Create looks that are unique and that represent your personal style. The possibilities are endless.

Step 3: Admire the work you have done. There is nothing more rewarding than going out on the town in an item that showcases your creativity and your inner fashionista.

Example:



Stay tuned for more on "Fancy Feet" this fall. 

Here is to dressing up your feet! Remember to have fun and get creative. 

Stay Lovely,

Denim '4' Days: The Button Down

Hello Beauties! It is time to bring out your denim, folks! This week, I am excited to start a new series for my blog..."Denim '4' Days." Denim is timeless and is one of the easiest items to style using a 2WBT1 label. Most of you probably own a variety of denim. If you are looking for ways to reuse and adorn these pieces, this series is for you. Dress it up. Dress it down. At the office. On the town. Here are 4 ways to wear your denim. The Button Down: Denim button downs are everywhere right now, making them the perfect item in which to kick off my "Denim '4' Days" series. I was able to find this denim shirt at a thrift store ( RR-Embrace Secondhand ).  Denim has yet to fade out of style and I am quite certain it never will which makes thrifting for denim inexpensive, easy and fun. Day 1: For my first look, I chose to give my denim a dressed up feel by throwing it over the top of my favorite LBD (Little Black Dress). Becaus...

I Have My Mother's "Jeans".

Hello Beauties!    Hope you all have been able to discover some lovely looks while playing dress up in your closets these past few days. This week, I am posting for those of you who enjoy a look that is fashionably funky.    This week I am very excited to show you two ways to wear a very easy to find "hand me down" item. ( RR-Embrace Secondhand ). Anything high waisted is one of my favorite looks for this year. Fortunately, most of you probably have a lady in your life who owns a pair of "Mom" Jeans. If you don't, no need to fret, they are very easy to find at your local thrift store. Look for a pair of high waisted jeans in any color. If they happen to have a wide leg cut, here is a quick trick to help give them more of a modern feel. Step 1: Put on a standard pair of jeans with a wide leg cut. Step 2: In the back, tightly gather the bottom of the jeans and tie a hair tie or rubber band around the bunch you have created. Step 3: Roll the jeans up...
