Mani Monday:: May Flowers

Happy Monday y'all! I think it's time for a joke to start your week off right.. :) 
What did the stamp say to the envelope?!
Stick with me and we'll go places… Hahahha
Even though I did a small version of florals last week, I was requested to do a different style and more florals, so here yall go! I just love the florals look, especially with it being Springtime! It just goes so well with everything! (sorry for the picture quality this time around, forgot to charge the camera!)



Check back later this weekend for a recipe and an OOTD recap!

Mani Monday:: Springtime Florals

Happy Monday everyone! Beautiful, beautiful day! How could you not be happy and smiling at everyone?! 
Well today's Mani Monday is a fun, flirty, girly, and festive one, filled with little roses and pinks! Learn how to make this floral design yourself by following the steps below!
First start off by painting your base colors.  
Then with the lightest shade, like a light pink, make random polka dots. They do NOT need to be perfect!
Then take a toothpick or thin brush and with your darker shade, make random lines around the dots, like shown before.
Lastly, get a green polis and add random lines/dots around your roses to create the leaves!

And the final step!

Check back later this weekend for a fun outfit of the day!

OOTD:: HOW TO-- Mixed Prints

Floral and Polka Dots

So I was at a flea market the other day trying to find some vintage things to put in my apartment when I came across this huge frame.  Because of my countless hours on Pinterest, ideas came rushing through my head about what to do with this frame. Since I'm still not yet home, I obviously couldn't do much with it so I put it aside only to realize it is great for photo booth  pictures! If you ever want to try something fun and creative with your pictures, simply get an empty frame and snap away! =)
Onto the outfit of the day, mixing prints can be one of two things:: dangerous or playful. 
I mixed floral and polka dots to give a fun and flirty statement.  The flowy skirt helped bring in its playfulness while floral is always a classy, timeless look.

 Heres some dos and don'ts of mixing prints::
DO::
  • when in doubt, choose a neutral base 
  • mix loose and fitted prints
  • pick colors in complementary fmailies
  • use same prints in different scales
  • mix neons with prints
DON'T::
  • be sloppy with fitting 
  • pile on too many trends at once
  • mix animal prints in same colors
  • add too much accessories to your style when already having a lot go on by mixing prints
  • fear clashing
Here's how celebrities mix prints::





How daring are you today?
