Can you believe it’s the last day of January already? Me neither. With the holidays behind us and a few more months of winter to get through a Glamour Girl can’t help but look for a little splash of color to make her wardrobe POP. Look no further than Nanette Lepore’s Spring 2012 Collection filled with more color combos than a jumbo box of crayons….Enjoy!
There’s just something about the early morning hours when you look into the confines of your closet (filled with one fabulous item after another) and all you can think is ”I HAVE NOTHING TO WEAR!!! ”Truth be told ..there are numerous selections that would look great on you BUT somehow it just isn’t formulating fast enough. You find yourself trying on one outfit after another..tossing the remains aside and leaving the house feeling frazzled and not quite as “cute” as you’d like. (Does any of this sound remotely familiar??) Thought so.
Here’s a tip. an easy one at that ….Why not figure out your outfits for the week ahead on Sunday night or really anytime you have open for about 30 minutes on the weekend. Put them together as a Stylist would… with outfits hung together by day. Think of it like your own mini version of FASHION WEEK. I know this advice so so.o.o.o simple and elementary BUT will you do it? Try it and find out. Not only will you get dressed in the time it takes to brew your morning Cup of Joe…but it will be so easy and stress free you’ll almost feel as if you’re in a meditative state as you roll out the door for the day ahead.
Namaste!!!!

Take fashion fabric (pictured here-illusion netting) fold numeorus times to the width that you desire. The more layers =the fuller the flower.Pin pattern down and cut carefully around pattern edges.
Adjust layers so that each is at a different angle...keeping center of flower intact.
With a needle and matching thread stitch center of flower together.
If your an advanced seamstress you can attach beading with thread OR the easiest option is to attach a store bought button with glitter or pearl in the center.
