curled up do



This is my sister Keslie she was so sweet to let me do her hair. I braided the front bangs back then put the hair into four pony tails. I curled every piece and pinned them up randomly I thought it turned out good!

one hour dress



I pieced this baby together in one hour before church! it was my moms old skirt that i snatched at our family garage sale before it sold! she thought it was amazing that i changed it so much. i love how i didn't even spend a penny on such a keeper.

just because


Hey everyone! this is just a little show off of photoshop editing. i love photoshop for these types of things. I also wanted to show you the quote on my first picture. "To see a rainbow you must first deal with the rain" its so true to me because usually after a really hard time the best things happen either during the hard times like a rain bow or after wards. I saw a rainbow the other day and it reminded me to keep moving on.

square shirt




Look this is so easy! you cut out two squares. sew the sides together up until where you want your arms to go through. Then cut out a neck line. sew the shoulders together and your done! i added a pocket to make it a little cuter. Me and my friend Madison made this kind of shirt together.

plain to fancy jean pockets

This was simple... cut out the size of lace you need and sew the sides to the pocket and...WA la! simple to fancy in minutes. I got the lace at Handcock fabrics for only $1.50 for the whole spool! these are brand new jeans for only 10 dollars at forever 21. talk about super saving!

lace love

I Always get so sick of layering a dress with the same cardigans so i decided to put sleeves on it! its a nice modest way to stay cool in the summertime and still be fashionable.

re-style ruffle shirt

This is my new way to get school clothes. I go buy simple things with no pattern and make them into my own signature clothing brand : ) i love it because its super cheap and cute! plus nobody will have any of the clothes that i do (not to mention that its super fun to use my creativity).
