Post image for DIY Beach Specimen Shadow Box

Whenever I’m at the beach, I always find myself collecting specimen to take with me. Usually heart-shaped rocks and tiny shells — and sometimes plant life, too. I love the idea of using a shadow box to create a vignette to display in your home, and this summer I couldn’t wait to make one using the bits and pieces I knew I’d find at the beach. Read more »

I do the same! Every time I go to the beach I collect some shells or little rocks. My purses are full of specimen. Thanks for the idea. The shadow box looks very nice :)

Post image for DIY American Flag Cuffs

With Americana being the featured trend on our homepage this week and the 4th of July around the corner, I knew it was time for a patriotic DIY. You may remember last year’s American Flag Cutoffs — well this year, I went for something a bit more subtle. Read more »

This is a cute idea and using an old printed tee for the cuffs is fine, but cutting up an American flag is disrespectful to our wonderful country. Our flag should never be cut up or worn as an article of clothing. The only correct way to dispose of an old flag is to burn it in an official burning ceremony which usually occurs at your local VFW or American Legion once or twice a year. Check out the Flag Code on google.

Post image for Our Favorite Hats For Summer

Hats are always one of my go-to accessories no matter what season it is. They can really add that extra touch and complete an outfit — not to mention they are perfect to throw on if your hair isn’t quite up to par in the morning. In the winter, I’m all about the beanies. During the summertime, wide brims are my favorite. They can keep you cool and shade your face from the sun, so the wider the better in my opinion!  We have a handful of hats online right now that are made out of lightweight materials in fun shapes, so I wanted to show how I would style three of my favorites:

Yes, I have one hat of his style. Mine is yellow color. It looks like a candy and it is suitable for summer!

These are great! I have gotten much better about wearing a hat when I am out in the sun. These all are so cute and functional. ;) http://happinessiscreating.com/

Post image for Office Style: Summer Prints

This week’s office style was all about fun, summery prints! Prints are great all year round, but bright-colored florals and bohemian patterns are what summertime is all about. I caught some of the girls looking quite similar this week, from matching jean vests worn over sun dresses to lightweight embroidered tops paired with skinnies. I’m sure the warm temperatures inspired these girls when they were getting dressed in the morning. Take a look at how they wore prints this week! Read more »

Summer is now in full swing, and I couldn’t be happier. To me, music is an essential aspect of this season. Whether I am going for a walk, relaxing on the beach, or even just chilling in my apartment with the windows open, it is essential that I have good music playing. I always find myself coming back to certain bands in the summertime — both new and old, they are the ones that always seem to capture the exact feeling of summer that I want to surround myself with. So here they are, my top ten summer bands — who would make your list? Read more »
