Trend: Print on Print

(Thrifted blouse and belt, Forever 21 skirt, asos necklace, dolce vita wedges)

Hi all!  Here is my take on the print on print trend.  I love this trend because I love mixing prints together.  I think the key to this trend is to make sure that you can blend them together. Make sure to take risks and have fun with it! I have a upcoming DIY post that will be up this weekend! :) 

Weekly Thrift Finds #3

For Mother's Day, I took my mom thrifting. She loves thrifiting as much as I do, maybe even more.  She was the one who introduce it to me when I was younger.  And if you think I'm good at thrifting, wait until you meet my mom.  She's a master thrifter!  I was actually begging her to leave Goodwill after an hour or so, and she still wanted to stay.  Anyways, here are my finds from last weekend.  I love love love all the vintage blouses I found.  I also finally found colored high waisted jean shorts, yellow and forest green.  There were a couple of other items, like a dress and a few other blouses, but I have no time to take pictures.  It's been pretty hetic with school and my home purchase.  I'm going to be closing in two weeks!  Crazy!  I have a busy weekend ahead of me, so I won't be able to blog any DIY or thrifting post until next weekend.  Once I get settle in, there will be tons of exciting post, I promise!  Also, due to high demands about buying my thrifting items, I have decided to open my own vintage shop.  It has always been a dream of mine.  So, now I will have two online stores that I have to managed.  =)  Stay tune for more information.  Have a great memorial weekend!

There is still time to enter the giveaway!  See the post below for instructions. 

DIY: Hair Bows

Hello all!  Here is another fun and easy DIY for you.  Cute hair bows that anybody can make. You can make little bows or big bows.  I got the steps from www.domesticfashionista.com.  Usually if I do things a little different I would take pictures, but since I did everything exactly like how she did it, I decided to just show her steps.  Let me know if you have any questions and have fun with it =)  This floral fabric was from a skirt that I alter and I saved the extra fabric.  So, you could just take a old t-shirt that you don't want and use it.  Comment me below if you do try the DIY, so I can see how your bows turn out.  Have a great day!

Supplies:

-Fabric

-Needle

-Thread

-Some type of hair clip {or you can always bobby pin it into your hair}

1. Cut rectangular piece of fabric.  The bigger the piece, the larger the bow.  

2. Hold over the top and bottom.

3. Fold again to tuck in non-sewn edge.

4 and 5. Fold over right and left side of fabric so they slightly overlap in the middle.

6 and 7. Hand stitch the two sides up the center.

8. Pull the thread so that the bow gets cinched in the center and wrap remaining thread around center and tie.

9. Cut a small piece of fabric for the bow's center.

10. Fold over the top and bottom so they overlap and hide frayed edge.
