These are perfectly good jeggings. (Spell check tells me “jeggings” is not a word, but we all know better, right? It’s a terrible word, but a word nonetheless.) And in fact, these jeggings are so perfectly good, that I might have a second back-up pair in storage. I was just ready to change up the…

Christmas Crafting Week: Foam Paper Ornament
OK just one more craft for the week. I am DIY-ed out. It had to be easy and it had to be inexpensive. With my logic, ornaments are small – therefore faster to finish – so I figured I’d go in that direction. This one took longer than the ribbon ornament because you have to cut out so many squares,…
Christmas Crafting Week: Tinsel Tree
Oh, this tinsel tree. I made so many mistakes that it took forever and I had to redo it 3 times. It’s not difficult by any means, but I didn’t have a tutorial to follow, so I was winging it. And we all know how that goes. My uncraftiness really had a chance to shine…
Christmas Crafting Week: Pom-Pom Garland
These pom-poms are kind of my favorite. I loved having fluffy little pets all around the house. And I enjoyed throwing them at Stevie’s head continually while he wasn’t looking. Perfect rainy day activity. Plus, they look so cute on the mantle! Baby Jesus and pom-poms go together right? Here’s where I found the easiest…
Christmas Crafting Week: DIY Rustic Ribbon Ornament
This week, I’ll show you a few of the craft projects I attempted for Christmas. My whole entire life, I have always tried to be a crafty person. But I’ve realized over the years, and all of the failed attempts, that I’m just not. And that’s ok. These ones are actually so easy, they made…
DIY Visual Schedule for Toddler
It’s no secret that Stevie can be… difficult. And I’m being so very kind when I say this. Yesterday he threw such a tantrum leaving the park, that I literally had to drag him by his arms all the way to the car. And when we got to the car, I was so frustrated, I…
Easy DIY Updated Ankle Boots
Since ankle boots don’t seem to be going anywhere anytime soon, I’ve been on the hunt for a pair. Just basic, simple, easy-to-wear-with-anything, all-around ankle boots. I liked these from Steve Madden, but I’m trying to stay on more of a budget here. And one day while I was perusing Target, I came across these…
DIY Ombrè Pumpkin
Here is a simple last minute tutorial for a cute pumpkin. This is what I decided to do this year. And by this year, I mean 10 minutes ago during Stevie’s nap. Playing up the ombrè trend. Our carved pumpkins always seem to fail, so paint is the way to go! Supplies: Pumpkin 3 paint…
Sweatshirt Obsessed: DIY No-Sew Cropped Sweatshirt
As this Fall is finally feeling like Fall (for the time being), the only thing I’m really interested in wearing is sweatshirts. Comfy jeans and cozy sweatshirts. Just saying it out loud makes me feel like getting a hot cocoa to go along with it. I know it sounds like I’ve given up on fashion all…
DIY Tank Top
I noticed the other day that the t-shirts I jog in are giving me a farmer tan. If I lived on a farm, this would be perfectly fine. Probably even expected. But in the grand city of L.A. I don’t even think it’s allowed! I’m pretty sure there are rules about that sort of things…
