Tribal Try


This is my Tribal Try. I think I succeeded. The pink mixed with the crew-neck hip-hop vibe and a tribal inspired skirt rocks!






This sweater is from the Mary Kate and Ashley for Walmart. It is 5 years old!


This skirt is from Ardene (it is actually a strapless dress!)
The print up close!

How To Make Perfume/ My New Fragrance!

Me and my sister developed a fragrance called Lone Star. This is a basic fragrance with Lime as the top scent, Blueberry as the heart, vanilla as the base and cinnamon as the extra. Keep reading if you want to create your own fragrance. This is a fun, scentsy thing to do and it only takes a few hours.
Ingredients:
Vodka (not for a scent, to keep it on your skin longer)
Essential Oils, Extracts or Natural Flavors (orange juice, lime juice etc)
Water
Bottle (to put perfume in)
Spoon
Bowl

Step 1:  Mix 1 part Vodka to 2 parts water.
Step 2:  Mix your top coat, stir, then your heart, stir, and finally your base coat.
Step 3: Mix in an extra scent. (optional)
Step 4: Add another dash of cold water.
Step 5: Put your fragrance into a bottle (spray or not).
Step 6: Enjoy Your Perfume!

You can make whatever scent you want to!

Be like your favorite Celebrity!

Are You Boho or Classic?

This is my first outfit post of the new year! This is a school casual look!

These are the cuffs up close. You cannot see them in the picture above.

This is a hand-knitted Panda bear hat.
This necklace is by Lia Sophia.
I do not know where I got this necklace.
A closer look at the top.
The knit over-throw is from Ardene,
The Pink floral top underneath is from Mexx,
and the belt is from Romeo And Juliet Couture (it came with a knit dress).

This is a paper mashee (is that how you spell it?) bracelet!
I hope you enjoyed this outfit! Thanks ! Love you all!

Tea Dying!

I don't know if you can see this, but this is Tea dying, a staple in my wardrobe. I will teach you how to Tea dye. This is a fun and easy way to get that old, indie look, that I can't I get enough of! You can use any fabric or old piece of clothing, this also works with paper!
Here's how:
Steep 8-10 Tea Bags in Boiling Water. (8 is a lighter shade, 10 is darker)
Let Steep for 5-10 minutes
Stick Clothing In Tea for 2-8 hours.
After you reach your desired shade of brown, take clothing out and wash in cold water.
Enjoy!
Here's some examples.


I hope you get to try this out! It is super fun. If you do it post it on your blog, and post the link here, I'd love to see them! Love Y'all!
