If there’s one thing I cannot deny, it’s my love of Boston Terriers. I can’t imagine saying no to a cake pop in their image. Could you? Highly doubtful. Although I’ve heard cake pops are horrifically difficult to make, I’d give these a go just based on the cuteness factor.
As you all know, on the top of my accessory wish list is plenty and plenty of beautiful wrist candy! I’m loving all the gorgeously piled bracelets I’m seeing on my favorite fashion bloggers and random Pinterest photos. They are just so playful and youthful. I think that if I had an arm full of color and whimsy, it would be impossible to not look down and smile multiple times during the day, am I right? Here are some of my favorites that I have stumbled on while surfing the Internets.
1. ASOS coloured cube bracelet – $8.06
2. ASOS retro skulls friendship bracelet – $21.49
3. Forever 21 lacquered wing bracelet – $6.80
4. ASOS pastel bunting bracelet – $14.32
5. Bauble Bar octagon initial bracelet – $50
6. Nasty Gal Leo zodiac bracelet – $48
Also, my birthday is only in 3 months, you know. 😉
So a very long time ago, all you lovely people suggested that I feature some of my favorite girls. I always had this idea on the back burner, but just never got around to it – mainly not knowing how to incorporate it into posts. Now I know. Every month, I’ll play a little role reversal on Hump Days, giving the girls a chance to shine as well.
And let’s face it. All us ladies have a few good girl crushes, right?
I had to start it with the absolutely lovely, Zooey Deschanel. She was the inspiration for my most recent haircut, and one of my most favorite style icons. I think she’s all sorts of wonderful (we even share a gluten intolerance – aw). And how amazing is her show, New Girl? It’s the highlight of my week, seriously. Plus, check out her adorable blog, Hello Giggles. Heart: bursting. Even more when she comes paired with the gorgeous Joseph Gordon Levitt. God, I love them so.
I have been in love with Organic Bloom frames for as long as I can remember, but definitely not with their prices or accessibility (or lack thereof). That’s why when I saw this DIY idea, I had to give it a go. Then, I noticed all the hateful comments on said DIY and all other repins from what I imagine are proud Organic Bloom owners? Or representatives? Either way, it made me start to feel differently about the brand (these comments have since been removed).

It rubbed me in such a bad way that these commenters kept saying there were no after photos of this project because it was such an awful idea that I had to do it. And post an after picture. In fact, several. And guess what? It looks great! So neener Organic Bloom – this is more than a worthy DIY project for those of us that want the look but without the dollar signs. Photojojo even posted a similar craft!
Plus, you can find more affordable alternatives at this Etsy shop, as well as at Cut It Out.
