What Goes Around Comes Around

And I am not just talking about good karma!  These days we have to be aware of everything; from what we eat to what we throw away and our daily carbon footprints we leave behind.   That’s why recycling is so important these days.  Recycling is more than throwing your plastic bottles and cans in the recycling bins, it’s about Reusing and Reducing as well, and doing so has never been so chic!

Most people look at vintage clothes as unique timeless pieces (which they are), but they are also the best way in recycling beautiful pieces that is all ready made and out in the world.  Why waste mother nature’s time and energy when you can reduce your carbon footprint with these unique, vintage and recycled pieces below!  Cheers to good karma!

These eco-chic finds can be found on Etsy and The Daily Green

Yes please!

I am in love with cute pendants!  They are casual enough to wear everyday, yet bold enough to stand out and be a great conversation piece.  We can’t forget they are handmade,  giving each pendent a unique look.  I have a turquoise one on order, what color are you getting??

Kitchen Vixen

Your dinner isn’t the only thing that needs some spicing up!   Here are my five must do’s for any woman looking for her creative and sexy self, while cooking or baking.  These will not only help you create fabulous dishes, but also help you feel chic while getting messy in the kitchen.

1.  Wear a cute/sexy/vintage apron to get in the mood (of cooking that is ;o)

2. Try something new once a week- look online, read magazines, ask a friend for a new recipe.

3.  Think of cooking like looking at a piece art, its a blank canvas for you to create your own masterpiece, both mouth watering and eye pleasing.

4.  Keep health in mind at all times, anything can taste good with globs of butter, the trick is to make it taste even better without!

~ If you eat better, you will feel better, and you will look better

5.  Cook with your significant other, the aromas, the apron, the aspect of creating something together will work wonders in other aspects of your relationship.

~ If your single, find a good friend, turn on the music, and bounce ideas back and fourth while cooking.  You will have a blast and share a great meal together.

Thanks to these designers for their chic, classy, and sexy creations!

Putting on the Glitz

A great DYI project taking broken pieces of your grandma’s gems and turning them into functional and unique accessories.  I am in love with the gems over the shoulder, these look easy enough to do, whip out some crazy glue and put your imagination to work.  These are sure to be a conversation piece and the subtle hint of sparkle will make an entire outfit shine. Another fabulous DYI project thanks to www.marthastewart.com.
