Final Color Combo Series (#5)

Growing up, we all played princess on a daily basis (I still do) and had tea parties with great and noble teddy bears. When asked "what is your favorite color," the reply was always PINK & PURPLE. So ladies, today we are reliving our childhood with 2 ever popular girlish hues. 
Pink & Purple



Outfit #1- Not the princess outfit you were expecting huh? These purple & pink dyed shorts are shouting inspiration at me. This could possibly be a DIY post in the future, that's IF I'm brave enough to take on the dye process. Pairing it with a rocker/band tee and Dr. Martens kinda says "hey you, i'm sort of a bad ass." Don't you think? You could dress the shorts up with a white blouse that ties at the neck and some pretty wedges or platforms. 

Outfit #2- Here's the look suited for a beautiful princess. A high low skirt typically suits all shapes and sizes, and don't forget to tuck in your tank to accentuate your waistline. I love the contrast of the pale pink and dark purple together. Maroon also goes well with this color combo and I think it adds a little more lux-glam to the outfit. Go with a statement necklace and keep the rest of the jewelry simple. 

Outfit #3- Here's a subtle way to add in more colors to your outfits. Pick one color to showcase in your clothing and add the other in with your accessories. White denim here, because we've all dug them out of the deep dark pits of the closet for spring. Have you noticed the necklace yet? The outfit overall is very cutesy-girly, so I threw in a pistol...haha. 

Doing this color combination series has been a lot of fun for me. I'm a very visual person, so when I can create ideas in my head and share them with you it's exciting. Now I'm trying to think of what type of series post I can do next! If you have any ideas that you would like to see on my blog shoot me an email.

Gracelynn Rose Designs & GIVEAWAY

Today I'm very excited to introduce everyone to Gracelynn Rose Designs! The owner, Stephanie, is one of my closest and dearest friends that I consider more of a sister. The first time we met it was instant friendship, now we've known each other for 5 years. Even though we're currently thousands of miles apart it's as if we never left. Swirly Pink Black Lampwork Swarovski Crystal Bracelet Stephanie has been designing her own jewelry since 2001 and selling it to customers along with a few stores. Each design is her own, delicately handcrafted, and unique. She did an entire jewelry line based on Twilight (which of course I loved every piece) that was so beautiful AND she sold a line of pearl & crystal bracelets to David's Bridal and those were stunning. For my birthday Stephanie sent me a pair of earrings in the mail and I fell in love with them and wear them every chance I get. Might I add that they are 1 of a kind, not another pair like them...   It&

Short on Inspiration?

HOLY COW! There is so much inspiration out there for denim shorts! Usually I'm more of a skirt/dress person in the spring and summer, but I'm just really feeling all the cool shorts out there and wanna be a part of it all. I wish you could all come to my house and have a big ole' DIY party, sip on mojitos, laugh, and have a good time. Instead it looks like the hubby is gonna be helping me out because I can't wait any longer to do this. Originally I was going to wait on this post until after I finished making the shorts, but I just couldn't wait. I mean can you tell how excited I am about this?  Okay, so I can't tell you ALL the ideas that are running around in my mind that I'm sure is run by mignons , then there would be no element of surprise. But here are a few... My two faves are the purple & green dyed and the flag shorts! Tonight I am going to the Airmen's Attic to scout around for good denim that I can turn around and destroy.

E.L.F. Cosmetic Brushes...Fave or Fail?

    Admittedly I've been using the same Mary Kay makeup brushes for a while now, along with a few other random brands thrown in. I was just satisfied with my MK brushes because they washed well and have help up for a really long time. But it was definitely time for a whole new set and I had trouble making up my mind on which makeup brushes to try. At first my plan was to snag a few from different companies to see what I liked best, but then E.L.F. Cosmetics had a 50% off sale with free shipping over $35. Naturally I had to give it a shot since I was getting so much bang for my buck. I already knew that I wasn't too fond of their cheaper $1 brushes so I opted for the Studio Line which ranges from $3-$10 and I'd heard great reviews. All together I got 15 brushes (1 didn't make it to the picture) for only $37, definitely a steal! Keep reading to find out if it was worth it.     I am extremely pleased with these E.L.F makeup
