DIY; denim cut off

Summer's here! That means: showing off your legs. 
First idea that pops into our mind? Cutting your jeans. 
Wonderful idea and looks easy but such a waste of beautiful denim if you do mess up. 

Here's how to get the most perfect denim cut off.

DIY: how to organize your accessories

Since I'm a big fan of organizing I like all things that involve structure and storaging. 
So as you probably figured, I'm a big fan of this video of Popsugar!

"Resolutions are like headaches. You forget about them as soon as they stop hurting"

Almost the beginning of a brand new year, the ideal moment to make good resolutions and start with a clean slate! Less unhealthy habits, more exercise and lots of water to drink every day. Also more laughter, more friends and enjoying every moment more. That all sounds very properly. But let's not forget our fashion resolutions for 2013! 

1. Time for change
   Change of look is life. Brighten up your wardrobe and experiment with color. Get a new haircut or try a new trend.
2. Sales items
   Buy classics and basics. Because if you buy trendy trendy pieces they are already or almost out of fashion. Think about the future and look for a nice jacket, well fitting jeans and decent boots. If you are looking for something for a special occasion or if your wardrobe is missing that one special piece, go take a look at the more expensive shops. Who knows they still have it in your size! That way you also have a piece of very good quality.
3. Have a big cleanup in your wardrobe
   Count half a day to get this done. The stuff you almost never wear can make room for new items. So away with it, please. But be carefull with buying new items; Why spend money on impulse purchases that you never wear or that don't match other clothes? Think before you go shopping carefully on how much you are willing to spend, what kind of items you need , which trend of the season you want to follow and which one not (in order to avoid bad buys). Below you can find a short movie of Allison McNamara and Beth Zeigler, they show you how to handle that cleanup and give you a lot of useful advice!

DIY; Create glitter shoes

No matter what kind of plans you have for the holidays, add some glitter shoes to your outfit. With the current trend of glitter, studs and everything shiny these shoes won't make you look overdressed. Depending on how hard you want to shine, add some other shiny accesories. 

Below you can find a tutorial of Allison McNamara and Liza Kaplan on how to transform your ordinary pumps in the most extravagant pair of shoes ever. 

Enjoy!

Have fun!
