DIY Stuart Weitzman Inspired Fringe Sandals

If you did your homework (or read Stylefrizz lately), you know that the fringe is in this year! I’m a girl of many shoes (not) and I always tend to treasure and transform rather than get on a shopping binge each season.

I had this pair of high heeled sandals I could easily adapt for the new ‘trends’ and I hope this will inspire you to update your wardrobe on a budget! It may sound complicated, tuning onto the last trends, but you’ll have to take my word for it: fringe-ing the sandals you already own may be easier than actually shopping for a new pair!

DIY Flowers Hair Accessories Inspired By Valentino Haute Couture

Each Spring I feel humbled and overwhelmed by the beauty and the energy taking over the nature. I’m almost tempted to believe my girl who is firmly convinced that that there must be some magical Pixie Dust and tiny Fairies taking care of each flower bud, of each growing green leaf!

Being asked about where I would wear the dotted tulle with bow headband and knowing how I first put it on for a walk in my own backyard, I thought something less haute and more casual was a must DIY! Here I am, with hair accessories inspired by the Valentino Spring 2015 Couture Show!

Chappie Fashion Items Identified

If you’re a fan of AI movies or of Neill Blomkamp’s cinematic perspective, you have to see Chappie! Although I was a bit hesitant, knowing the main idea behind the movie (Artificial Intelligence), I admit I was completely blown away by the ultimate twist and the visuals of the movie.
