The Looks: Bebe Maxi Skirt | Mango Maxi Skirt | Forever21 Black Maxi Skirt | Forever21 Coral Maxi Skirt

Spring! So excited to wear gorgeous flowy skirts and pastel shades again. I came across this feminine high-low skirt and instantly fell in love. Such a beautiful soft shade of pink and I love the light grey color on the sides. I paired it with a simple sheer off the shoulder top to keep the focus on the skirt and added some great accessories. Don’t you love the turtle pendant?! To complete the look I wore these amazing gold cuffed sandals. They are perfect for your next vacation!

I hope you love it.

I’ve been looking for an affordable leather pleated skirt for ages, and was so excited to find this one at Forever21. The faux leather skirt has boxed pleating and a banded waistline. To keep the focus on the skirt I paired with neutral colored tee with spikes and studs on the shoulders. Amazing! I wore my favorite tri-color metal stacked rings and completed the outfit with silver spiked flats.

I hope you love it!

The Looks: Forever21 blouse here | Forever21 skinny jeans here | Forever21 sweater here | American Eagle skirt here

Ahh.. It’s my birthday! When I was little I was obsessed with dreaming of all the dolls I would be unwrapping and what color the frosting on my cake would be. These days getting older has come to mean more about just receiving love from the people in your life and having them shout it out a little louder. I do still look forward to a good slice of cake.

I wanted to wear an outfit that made me feel feminine and gorgeous. I fell in deep sequin love with this blush pink sheer blouse at Forever21 immediately. How can a gorgeous sequin collar not make a girl happy! Immediately I knew it would go perfect with this skirt I just painted. You can see how to do that in this DIY post

The outfit is so gorgeous by itself that I wanted to keep the jewelry simple. I added this cute charm bracelet from WetSeal. You can buy a similar one online here. To complete the look I added a pair of suede tan wedges. 

I hope you love it! Don’t forget to enter the American Eagle giveaway here if you haven’t yet!

Time for another DIY! This time I’m going to be showing you how to do a really simple fashion DIY. I have to admit the idea of painting a skirt was a little daunting at first but the metallic rose chrome color came out gorgeous. Easy to do, with absolutely no mess.

I purchased all my supplies once again from Michaels. What does that store not have? Here’s what you’ll need. Find a plain pleated skirt you love. I bought mine at Forever21. Purchase a metallic fabric paint- I picked up ‘Rose Chrome’ from the Martha Stewart collection. The only other supplies you will need is a fabric paint brush and a roll of duct tape.

Place a strip of duct tape across one side of the skirt, where you want the paint to stop. Start painting the bottom of the skirt making a line close to the duct tape first so that you don’t make any mistakes. You can see from the picture below with the duct tape, you’ll need more than 1 coat of paint. That is with 2 coats, so don’t worry if the color isn’t looking solid. Allow to dry overnight and the next day add the third and final coat. And you’re finished!

I hope you love it and keep a lookout for more DIYs in the next couple of weeks.

Enjoy!
