stop and smell the roses

Thursday, November 10, 2011

I've been very impressed with the amount of DIY talent in the blogosphere lately. For example, this adorable headband made by Carrie got me really excited. She mentioned in the instruction post (here) that it's very easy and fool-proof so this means I can make it without a) pricking myself in the finger b) spending hours pondering how I can construct it. Yay!
I would also like to mention that I was so excited about the overhwhelming repsonse to the last few posts. You guys are so lovely and it's really motivating to get such postive feedback all the time. So, thank you ♥


Anyway, back onto the fashion side of things, casper&pearl (the gorgeous brand I hosted an interview with a while ago) have released another gorgeous lookbook full of lace, florals, vintage shorts and flower wreaths. Basically everything I love!
Enjoy the rest of your week!
