Bobble-Dee, Bobble-Dee Bop

                                                        ...Here is my new Bobble Bottle

.... and here are some temporary tattoos 

What happens when they get together?

Simple..very simple that I don't even need to explain how I did it.  I did however seal it with clear polish in the hopes that the design will last longer.

 Question is ..why hasn't Bobble started selling decked out bottles anyway??

Cheap Tricks

                    I love decorating however...I'm pretty cheap.  So when it came to adding wall art to "Beans" nursery I looked around at what I already had and came up with these.

Now..I'm new to blogging about projects and crafts that I do so please forgive me for not offering a Step-by-Step on how I created these.

They simply consist of two gift bags I received- one with the baby animals and the other being a simple pale pink- some wrapping paper, certificate frames from the Dollar Tree, scissors, and a glue gun.  

The animal portion of the first gift bag originally looked like this..

I cut around the squares to where they all looked the same.  The only measuring I did was when it was time to add the wrapping paper and plain pink gift bag as backing.

The finished product looks like so..

I even used the string handles of the bags making them into bows and gluing them to the corners of the frames.  This was one of the best things I've done for her nursery because she absolutely loves these pictures.  They're placed right above her changing table and she's constantly cooing and smiling at them.  We call it her "talking to her friends".  And all it cost me to make one was about $1.10.  A dollar for each of the frames and $2.99 for the wrapping paper I picked up at Marshalls.

A win!

The Return

I've been on quite a hiatus! A lot has happened since my last post.  I actually found out I was pregnant about a week or so after my last post and have been "baby-brained" since.  The end result.....

My lil "Bean"!!!!

Essentially I will be keeping this a blog of Fashion first however there will be some baby, new parent, craft and projects I'll be working on added to it.  Hopefully it will add to it and keep me posting.  Lets see where this goes.

Striped Down

I'm all about sheer tops during the steamy days of summer...

This one will be a definite addition.

Although I am desperately trying to stay away from black/white combos, I will be making this one happen!


hahaha.. I even dig the cheesy tie!

Simply Sophisticated

I got my eyes on you..............

......Braided Leatherette T-Strap.   

I have a couple pairs of sandals in this color ...because if you follow my blog you know Cognac is my go to for shoes, so I don't necessarily need another pair.  But really for $24.50 who would turn these down?

Red Devil

You can't deny these devil red wedges wouldn't 

be fabulous with a pair of dark blue skinny's.  

These shoes are SO up my alley it's ridiculous!  I absolutely love the spike detail on the heel only.  It most certainly is enough, not to mention the touch of sweetness being they are an open toe shoe.  A little something to keep em guessing when you walk away!

...And Now There's This...

Uuugghh.  Talk about underwhelmed.

I used to LOVE Arden B.

Almost everything they had in the store I wanted to buy, but now there selling items like this....

... and this...... and this

... a cable "printed" top.. seriously?









 Now I did find a few nice things like this color block tunic but there weren't many.

 What happened to the sexy sophisticated clothes they used to sell??   Maybe my style changed once I got older, but I'm pretty sure I would have never walked out of the house in a fringe tube tunic!  Scary.
