Pattern Play




Shop This Look:
Top & Pants: H&M // Shoes: JustFab // Bag: Louis Vuitton (gifted) // Wristwatch: Avon

Total Outfit Cost (minus bag) : Approx.  $69.95

Remember this top from my little Valentine's day outfit idea (last seen here)? I changed it up to make it more appropriate for church and daytime by wearing a black cotton tank top inside to cover up the back. I'm really getting into these loose fitted pants (jogger pants? Is that what they're called?). They're so comfy, and if you get a good material and print, they can also be very stylish.

I'm usually not a fan of sandals of any kind: flats or heels, BUT I'm ABSOLUTELY in LOVE with these sandals! I challenged myself to spend only $50 per month on closet shopping. For someone like me, $50 can buy a whole lot, but I also decided to get staple pieces that would stand out in my closet. So I picked these shoes for my February buy, and I'm so glad I did. It's called "Ankara" by JustFab. Zara had a similar pair sometime last year. You will be seeing these on the blog a whole lot, so brace yourselves. lol

What items are you stocking up on for Spring/Summer?

Bring your shoes back to life!



Hey guys,
This is a very simple DIY. It takes less than 7 minutes to complete.

Do you have any peep toe heels or even flats you are getting bored with? Here's how to make them interesting again! (I learned this from a friend)

What you'll need:
1. Any peep toe shoe
2. A small piece of fabric
3. A pair of scissors
4. 5-7 minutes

If your shoe is a plain color, use a printed fabric but if it's printed use a plain one.

Steps
1. Cut out 2 sizable rectangular shapes from the fabric. (cut depending on how big you want your bow)
2. Tie the bow at the peep toe part of your shoe. (tie it depending on how dramatic you want it too)
3. Check for any mistakes or imperfections.

Viola you're done! Your shoes should look different now!

*I don't recommend using glue just in case sometimes you don't want the bow!
