Denim Cutoffs and Polka Dots!

When I saw that the link up at the Fashonista Next Door was going to be denim cutoff I was more than happy. So I bought a pair of Lucky Jeans at the Consignment Store and made it into these shorts. It was very easy I used a pumice, a cheese grater and sandpaper to make it look like I have worn this for ages.
I am glad that I am part of the Fashionista Next door link up this week go and check her and the other bloggers out.
On another note, I am happy it is Friday cause that means Movie Night. Have a great weekend you'all.

What I made recently.

Recently I have been keeping myself with sewing , at times I got a bit frustrated since things didn't go how I wanted. I manage some how to make a couple of beautiful things though.
My friend dragged me to a yard sale that had a lot of vintage thread spools I decided to make an art piece with that one.

Cat Eye Wear!

"I love glasses, especially cause they give my outfits that special touch. Lately I have been searching for affordable, fabulous and high quality prescription eye wear at the Sunglass Hut and BonLook. In both cases, I fell in love with their cat eye frames. If you like to change your look, they have many frames to choose from. I have picked out three that I am considering purchasing very soon. What is your favorite  Cat eye look???"

Project: Makeover Teenage Bedroom

Kimmi has been asking for a bigger bedroom for a long time now, so this Summer we decided to start paiting the room and then go out and find the right furniture.
She wanted a nice soft beach color, we found the Sea glass swatch color at Home Depot but since I do not really  like their paint I took it to Benjamin Moore and there they matched it for me.
I wanted to see everything organized (I am a bit of neat freak) so we bought baskets to keep things like diaries, old pictures and other stuff.We bought the bed, light fixture and chair at Ikea and the desk was from Pottery Barn.
I framed black and white pictures for wall art and at Hobby Lobby I found the Paris art one, which is a reminder of our Paris trip 2 years ago.
 I used a book shelf for a vanity we didn''t want to crowd the room with another furniture piece , the advantage of the shelf is that only the things she needs will be on there so it won't get cluttered.

Sunday's best : D'orange

I wore this dress to church this morning, a friend invited me to visit this morning. I bought this dress in April , I needed something to wear to a reception celebrating the Queen of Netherlands birthday, Orange is our color. Now we have a King and a Queen. It's a beautiful day I might head out and enjoy the sun. Happy birthday to my brother who is on a plane heading from Aruba to Atlanta.
