Finding Your Neverland...

So come with me, where dreams are born, and time is never planned. Just think of happy things, and your heart will fly on wings, forever, in Never Never Land!

-Peter Pan

What's your magic.. What makes you soar above the clouds and drift between being asleep 

and awake...the place where you remember your dreams... What makes your heart dance 'round flower gardens and sing the songs of sirens... Is it art of the ages or lyrics of now...

Find it all and let your creative genius free

xoxo

Ode to Keith Richards and All the Rocker Greats ....

Dressing like one of our Rock Gods of the past is always a major look for all hallows eve...

Keith, Mr Tyler, Morrison, Hendrix and more really killed it when it came to putting together the freshest threads!!!!

Everyone talks about rock these days; the problem is they forget about the roll.

Get Your Beauty Rest

Beat your case of the Mondays before they even begin...

Its Sunday night and we all know there is nothing less fashionable than heavy under eye bags and a bad attitude...

Take a soothing bath with calming salts or powders...

A great one to use is Burt's Bee's Bath Milk...It will definitely calm pre-work-week nerves!

After use soothing lotions to make sure your skin has a full night of rejuvenation!!!

When you wake up in the morning remember this week will bring you tremendous success...

and at the end of it all will be one of the best Holidays ever!!!!!!!!!!!

One of the Boyz

Im a strong believer in wearing a dress pretty much everywhere...

But there are times when putting on a pair of kicks can make things a bit more fun!

Keep you casual look slim and sexy... grab a loose fit T so it drapes perfectly, a slim armed cropped leather jacket, stay flirty with some serious cut offs... and of course a little tough with a fun pair of chucks!!!

The boys will swoon that you keeping it down to earth and that you look ready to learn a skateboard trick or two...

Ombre Tulle and Incandescent Dreams

Dripping with glitter...

Covered in petals...

Armored in silver, bronze and rose gold metals...

Draped in fine silks spun round like a cacoon...

Layers of feather, fur and vines make me swoon...

Bright Eyes

Let your big beautiful eyes shine...

Take a Sunshine Stroll

BE INSPIRED!!!

Get outside...

and I don't mean in your car... either take a walk or jump on your oh-so-cute-beach cruiser.

Take in all the beautiful colors of fall... let them inspire your wardrobe...

Just like chameleons we like to fit into our environment... it brings comfort to mix well...

Take the honey glow of the sunshine, the dusty reds and oranges of the leaves, the pale greens of fading gardens, the warm chestnut hues and make them staple colors for your fall wardrobe.

If you notice colors in nature or other environments working well and flowing be certain that they will do the same in your beautiful clothing ensemble.

Hairs A Flutter

DIY

Take flight with this whimsical look for your next event...

Go to Michaels Arts and Crafts and pick up faux butterflies, flowers, feathers etc...

Grab a hot glue gun, some glue and your favorite clips at CVS and within moments you can create multiplicities of Fairy-esq hair pieces...

Let the hot glue gun heat up and then put a tiny bit of hot glue at the end of your clip and place your beautiful object on top... flip the clip and let it settle object side down so the glue can set....

XOXO

Beauty and the Braid

We all get stuck in a hair rut every once in a while...

We do the same blow dry, curl, straight iron etc....

Just like our clothing our hair should make us feel creative, inspired or just simply beyond pretty...

Feel ultra feminine with a full gathered side braid...

Keep the look tostled and loose and tie the ends with a faux flower, pretty feather or something that sparkles!!

XOXO
