DIY: Make Me an Olsen

We have massive girl crushes on the Olsens, they probably developed ten years ago, probably while watching Billboard Dad. Regardless of which goth, hippie or just plain crazy phase the twins are in, our girl crushes are still going strong today and have, of course, transfered to their fashion line, Elizabeth and James, and pretty Read more →

DIY: Prada Resort Earrings

If it starts with P and ends with rada, it’s probably golden – or in this case, made of Swarovski crystals. The second we saw Miuccia Prada’s Resort 09 collection, we fell in love and began brainstorming how to get our hands on a pair of the earrings swinging from Kamila’s lobes. Once we realized Read more →

Hermès Makes a Paper Bag

It’s one thing to say, “Oh, I can totally make that myself!” and another to actually follow through. We’re constantly planning on making pretty jersey dresses and chunky necklaces for summer, though they rarely come to fruition, but we never planned on DIY’ing our own Kelly bag. Thankfully, Hermes has made it very easy. You Read more →

DIY: Yo Yo Ma Headband!

I was having lunch with my friend Kristina, fellow FIT student and shop girl extraordinaire, and I couldn’t take my eyes off her Wohl-worthy headband. Not quite as structured as Blair’s, but a little less lounging-in-capri than a headscarf, it seemed like a great way to hold back last season’s bangs that you’re desperately trying Read more →

DIY: Carte Blanche

I just moved into my first apartment, and was having some trouble with finding fashion related artwork for cheap. I might bid on one of those Bardot by Avedon portraits but alas, my trust fund hasn’t kicked in yet (kidding). But luckily my budget still allows for my magazine addiction. So thank goodness for Design*Sponge, Read more →

Step By Step, Ooh Baby

I promised you a Heidi braid how to, so I’ve done my best to capture the process in pictures. I personally think pretty much every hair style, whether up or down, looks better just a little bit messy – random out of place wisps and the occasional lump add character. Plus, by the time it’s Read more →

DIY: Dries-It-Yourself

If it walks down a Dries van Noten runway, there’s a good chance we want it. Like, really really badly. The arm cuffs for Spring 08 were no exception. And since safety pins are a little more in our price range, we took to the craft store for this one (and added our own creative Read more →

DIY: Paint Bucket

We’ve had grand plans of finding the perfect white dress at H&M and splattering it a la YSL. Or discovering the poufiest prom dress on which to duplicate Dolce’s wildy textured strokes. But we might have been thinking a little too big. The Sergio Rossi shoes on Elle‘s March trend page, however, were the perfect Read more →
