Dress Up Bobby

Looking for a fancy hairpin that won’t cost you an arm and a leg? Instead of dropping big bucks on a designer clip at a retail store, make your own using industrial strength glue and gems from home

To pull away a few errant strands of hair you may only need a few regular bobby pins. However, if your hair is thick or you would like to secure an entire section of hair, you may need quite a few larger sized bobby pins

Are you looking to dress up an outfit or need something funky or unique to accent a new look? Your overall design plan will dictate your approach and what type of gems/accents you will need. Make sure not to over decorate. That could just make it look bad.

    Before you look outside your home, dig through your jewelry box to identify loose pearls, faux jewels or other pieces of broken jewelry that could be repurposed for your project.

    Head to the arts and craft closet at home because you may have the perfect accent piece hiding in a box or bag. Don’t discount anything until you have explored every possibility.

    Consider what you can create from your loot. For example, you could glue three faux pearls and a faux diamond together to create a flower that could be affixed atop a bobby pin

Maxi Skirt

A maxi skirt is a skirt that drapes to ankle length. Maxi skirts can be flowy or curve-hugging. A timeless classic that never dates, these skirts have a place in every woman's wardrobe, even if just for evening. And no matter your height, you can wear this skirt well. Choosing the right fabric, matching it with a pretty top and picking complementary shoes are all key to looking great in a maxi skirt

Walk in it, swish around in it and see if it feels comfortable first. If you're tripping up, it's too long. Then check how it looks in the mirror––the more streamlined styles will be the most flattering, while the flouncy Bohemian styles can add weight and don't flatter all figures

 There are two options here––monochrome (all one color) or matching colors. Avoid using colors that clash, as with any clothing.

    Monochrome can look very slimming and elegant, as the same color all the way down your body creates a sense of elongation. However, be careful to match the shades well or it can look slightly off color.
    Don't mix patterns. A patterned skirt works best with a solid color top and vice versa. Definitely avoid mixing up spots, stripes, florals and diagonals.


 If you're petite, wear heels to give you the added height to cope with the skirt length and to elongate your silhouette. If you're taller, flats or heels will work with a maxi skirt, although heels are usually preferred for evening wear. Most heels will work well with maxi skirts but always check in the mirror before deciding.

    Beaded sandals are appropriate for a flowing, Bohemian maxi skirt look. Espadrilles also look very casual and beach-like.
    Wedge shoes look great with maxi skirts and give you added height to carry off the longer skirt.
    Rugged styles can look great with many maxi skirts
    Avoid flats that are completely closed in, or loafers. These look frumpy with long skirts. Pointy toes and knee-high boots don't work either. And clogs and sneakers tend to look too chunky or dowdy.

Fashion - Salon

 Very intuitive and easy to be with. She did a great job with my hair, made really good decisions, and was very professional. However, the small things, like adding the hand massage, being so great with the shampoo, etc. made the experience very soothing. It was money well spent. Thanks.
The overall feel of the salon could be better; the ceilings feel a bit dirty and old.
