Urban cozy

Hey everybody!

The outfit I wore today made me feel like I belong to Urban Outfitters. Even though nothing I have on is from there, it just has their signature style: effortless, boho, and always has a hint of dorkiness. It's pretty cute and a great look for the fall!







Sweater: H&M
Shorts: Abercrombie & Fitch
Tights: Gap
Shoes: Minnetonka Moccasins

I swear that my left foot is bigger than my right, because when I wore these shoes the left one was so much tighter... Odd. But I love Minnetonkas! Seriously so comfortable, and the fringe is something that I am loving these days.  

I hope everybody is doing good, and leave your comments below! :)

Faux Fur is Juicy

Hello hello!!

Faux fur is everywhere: Vests, scarves, hats, coat trims... I am on the lookout for an awesome faux fur circle scarf. Because number one, it would be warm, and number two, it would be warm. :P Today I added a small faux fur collar/scarf item I got from H&M last year. I think it adds so much Oomph and a lot more interest.



I wore this CHOOSE JUICY tshirt under a pretty sophisticated outfit to keep things sort of "age-appropriate." But then again, what really is "age appropriate" these days??


Oh meh gosh. Now this is a ring that I like to flaunt. It was handmade by the owner of the CUTEST tea party shop/eatery in San Fran called Crumpets. This ring pretty much sums up what the actual store was like. (So.cute.but.over.priced.) It's okay though, the ring itself is just so happy!


I got this small cross-body bag from the Mulberry for Target line last year. I stuffed the strap inside and carried it as a clutch! Seriously LOVED this collaboration.


Thank you for stopping by. Have a great weekend!!!

DIY Clutch! No sewing required :)

You guys have all seen the trend: oversized foldover clutches. I have seen them everywhere in all sorts of colors and textures. I decided to make my own after googling some DIY tutorials and found that it is very easy to make!

So, here it is! 

The materials needed are extremely simple: A magazine (to roughly size how big you want your clutch), ruler, zipper, superglue, and of course, your material of choice.

I used a patent black material, with a teal zipper.

1. Measure your material roughly with the magazine, and cut. Make sure to leave about one and a half inch of extra material on both sides so you have adequate space to glue! Having extra is always safe, because you can trim any imperfections.

2. Apply a line of superglue along the edge. Make sure you apply the glue on the side that YOU WANT to show. We will be reversing the material inside-out when it dries.

3. Foldover the material in half, onto the glue. Let this dry overnight!


4. Time to glue on the zipper! Apply a line of glue onto the zipper. Then, apply the zipper onto the material. Make sure you put the zipper onto the side YOU DON'T WANT showing, so that the zipper will look neat!

5. When the glue on the zipper dries, flip the whole bag inside-out! Yay it's finit!
Finishing touches: Put poster paper inside of the clutch to make it have more structure. I also added some pearls!

Stay tuned for a full outfit post with my DIY clutch!
