A teeny bit of furrrrr

Hi everyone! Soooo, have you checked out my jewellery design HERE. The competition is nearly over and I would be so appreciative if you could vote for my design.  To vote just click the LIKE button just under my design- THANK YOU!

The Autumn leaves continue to fall and more and more skin is getting covered up! I've snuck a teeny bit of (faux) fur into this outfit- a $12 scarf from Target. So cute.  The shirt is a bargain as well, from BigW and three sizes too big, I tie it at the front to give a bit of shape.

DIY- Colour Block Bracelet

Firstly, thank you for all your ideas on how to wear the sizzling hot shoes from my last post.  I can't wait to show you what I come up with : )

Now to the DIY- I'm so excited about this post.  This is my first DIY tutorial- inspired by the current bold and brilliant colour block trend, and Proenza Schouler's designs  Hope you like it!  Here's a sneak peak of the final product...

Note: There will be a matching Part 2 very soon!!!

-------------------------------------------

DIY- HARDWARE & COLOUR BLOCK BRACELET

I started with the (free) purple cord from a shopping bag handle, a Cue bag in this case & found this $4 quirky brass latch at the hardware store. THEN pretty much,with no plan in mind, sat down at my outside table in the sunshine and had a muck around. I'm so pleased with the result : )

 1. Grab your materials!  Some cord, a clasp and whatever coloured cotton you like.

2. Put cord through the solid end of the clasp, cut to the right length for your wrist and start winding a contrasting cotton around, and around, and around.

3. When you get to the end, use a needle to thread the cotton back through the cord to hold in place.   

 

4. Choose a contrasting colour of cotton and at one end wind around, and around and around.
5. Once again use a needle to push the thread through the cord to hold in place.
6. REPEAT- Choose another contrasting colour of cotton and wind around, and around the other end.

7. Voila!! A colour block & Hardware bracelet:

GOOD LUCK!

I would love to hear how you go : )

Hello lover

Check out these babies- HOT huh!  I spotted these on the Siren shoes website the second they appeared and last weekend I finally tried them on... just for fun, really... BUT these on my feet created a ripple effect through Myer as everyone in the vicinity said "YOU HAVE TO GET THEM", old ladies were stopping, children, mothers and daughters, stopping I tell you, just to say to me this is an amazing shoe are you going to buy them?  Really folks, what could I do- my hand was forced and now they are all MINE! ha ha haaaa

Any tips on how to style these? I was thinking my black Amercian Apparel double U neck dress with an oversize black blazer for starters.  But it could be fun to wear them with colour...  TELL ME, how would you wear them??

P.s.  YES totally agree that is an extremely high heel- 15cm (6 inches) in fact.
