Valentines Day Looks
It’s the notorious day for love and crazy consumer spendy. If you are going out or staying in, single or coupled up, take time to love on yourself.
- Wear heels.
- Style your hair differently then your normal do.
- Do bold makeup. Not all over, pick a spot. Think cat eyes OR red lips.
- Use your ‘good’ perfume.
- Sport a shiny red manicure.

Festive Little Extras
Let's face it, many of us girls love our basic black. What is not to love?! Invest wisely in those solid wardrobe staples and dress them up with inexpensive accessories. That basic black ensemble is entirely interchangeable, just by swapping the little extras you can go from classic to trendy to chic to whatever your occasion so commands. So take it to the holiday's by adding some festive little touches.

Tis' the Season to Repurpose and Wrap it up!
Pinterest is ever so inspiring. I got some of my handmade gift ideas there this year. Most of my crafting comes from loving to repurpose and reuse common things.
Let's take it from the top and work clockwise, shall we...
1. Wrapped Bangle, no pin to link to for this one. Wrapping out of style cheap-o jewelry is kinda my fave thing to do. I usually use fabric scraps but I picked this cotton string up for the organic look.
2. Newsprint bow, never again will this gal buy a bow, well close to never. See the instructions here. What's in the package you ask??? A DIY scarf, see that post here..
3. Twig Candle Holder, nature + reused glass jar = awesome. Here is how to do it.
Handmade gifts offer something original and personal for the receiver. The giver gets a chance to channel in to their creative side. I say it's a win, win.

Sparkle for the Holidays
![]() |
| vintage necklace and sparkle polish |
Ugly sweaters everywhere can stay stuffed in the attic. You can look festive without sporting santa, candy canes or Christmas trees. To sparkle this holiday season, dress up your usual style with some accessories. Don’t forget to spread the holiday cheer to your manicure. The little touches make a big impact.
The sparklers of this outfit are my vintage jeweled bow tie necklace gifted to me by my grandmother and OPI's Visions of Sugar Plum from 2009's Holiday Collection. The blazer is American Eagle and top is Relativity.
Some choice colors for the holiday season are wintery whites, blues, plum, gold and silver. The standard green and red work too, especially when you break away from the traditional colors and go with emerald or a brick red. It gets the point across and looks upgraded. Cori at la vie petite has great accessorizing tips to share in her post, trim your-self.

What I like. Holiday Edition.
Holiday Edition. by amariebeauty featuring a black coat
I love the Holiday season. Winter itself...not so much. Here is the short list of some things that I love and make me feel all warm and festive.
Comfy slippers, classic coats, anything sparkly - especially polish, cherry lips, warm tights and candy cane stripes spell Holiday to me. Oh and cookies.

Halloween Costumes on the Cheap | Shop Your Closet
Shop your closet for a quick and creative costume. Store bought Halloween costumes aren't coming cheap these days and they can be a little lack luster. So stash your cash and use what ya got! Everyday items can be paired together in different ways to make a killer costume. Think outside the box and you are sure to score. Amp it up with over the top makeup and hair that coordinate with your character or costume. If you find you are just shy a few pieces or accessories of a complete ensemble borrow from a friend, hit the thrift store or dollar retailer to make it work on a dime.
