DIY: Dolce and Gabbana Inspired Floral Sunglasses

Hello Lovelies! I was totally inspired by the Dolce and Gabbana floral sunglasses, but at around $300 a pair,  I decided it was completely doable for me to DIY a pair for a fraction of the cost.
Here is what the final product looks like:

Materials you will need:

Sunglasses- I chose a simple cat eye pair from Forever 21 for $5.80 just in case the DIY didn't turn out as planned.  You can also just use a pair of old sunglasses!
         I do suggest getting a pair of cat eye sunglasses (they have a perfect amount of space to glue           flowers on at the edges), but other thick framed glasses will work as well!

Glue- You will need a super strong glue to make sure your glasses last! I personally used E6000 (around $6).

Plastic/Ceramic Flowers- I purchased mine from the seller MyTasu on Etsy. Click here to check her out. Also since I painted my flowers, the colors didn't matter much to me, but she has a wide array of colors in case you want to keep your flowers in their original colors. I spent $11.45.

Spray Paint (Optional)- This is only for people who wish to paint their flowers. I purchased the Krylon Dual Superbond in Gold Metallic. ($6.00)
         If you do choose to spray paint your flowers you'll also need some newspapers or something to
cover your working area!

All in all the total price for this DIY was around $29.25, but I had many leftover flowers, glue, and spray paint, so you'll have much left over for the next pair of sunglasses you wish to do!

Now finally let's get started!

   First, if you are going to spray paint your flowers, go outside or find a well ventilated area, and    cover the ground/table/etc. with newspapers and place your plastic flowers on it.

Next, paint thin coats until the flowers are covered, wait until dry (check your spray paint's instructions!). Then flip the flowers over and repeat!

Next, play around with the placement of the flowers until you find something you like. And it's finally time to glue on the flowers!

Wait for the glue to dry, and you are done!

I hope you  guys love this DIY as much as I do! I will definitely be flaunting these sunnies proudly and I hope you guys will as well!
I also am going to be adding a new part to my blog posts that I hope you guys will like! I always write my posts with music playing in the background, and at the end of the page, you will find a list of the songs/albums I listened through!

Until next time~XOXO

Wearing Spring Trends: Pastels

Hello lovelies!~
So this is a start of my spring trends series where I find some wearable trends that are currently in this spring 2014.
To start it off, I'm  going to start with a trend that I wear regardless if it is "in" or not.
Pastels! 
I already love this trend as for some reason, I am strangely attracted to pastel shades.
Here are my tips on wearing this trend.

1. Do not overdue it! Keep it to around 2-3 pieces of pastels, as seen above, I only used two pastels.
2. White is lovely with pastels, it really contrasts well with the pastels and brightens up your outfit!
3. If you aren't a huge light and girly color wearer, I suggest maybe going for some pastel nail polish or jewelry.
4. Color block! If you aren't afraid of jumping on this trend train, color blocking is a bold and fun way to wear this trend.
5. With pastels you can either go girly with lace, frills, peter pan collars, etc.
or even edgy with cleaner cuts; you don't need those frills!
6. If this isn't really your trend, try a neutralish base; white jeans, faded denim, black blazer, etc!
7. Gold jewelry really stands out against the pastel shades, while silver blends in more and is a softer look!

That's all for now! Comment below what you think of this trend, and any suggestions that you have for wearing pastels!
Until next time~ XOXO
