2016 Summer Trends

 Thrift stores are great places to shop for the latest trends. You can find unique pieces, possibly from the decade itself, not to mention inexpensive. Personally, I don't follow trends, I just go for what feels right, however this summer has some awesome throw backs that I don't think anyone, even myself, should miss.

Denim

Denim is on my radar when shopping for the latest trends this summer. I love how easy it can be dressed up yet look so chic by itself. I can foresee jean on jean being a true gem this fall, get ready for it!

Off the Shoulder

Forever21

Off the should has made its way back into the fashion world and I'm definitely not mad about it. It can make for a cute boho look, along with being super sexy. I also like the fact that you can wear this with pretty much anything and be set for any occasion.

Fringe

I think fringe has been on the market now for awhile now but full force at this point. It adds interest to any outfit and can be very versatile. Don't forget that it can be worn for all seasons too! Fringe is for sure going to be a hit all year round.

3 Easy DIY Scarves

 Supplies Needed:

Scarves

Yarn

Needle (Optional)

Acrylic Paint

Paint Brush

Glue Gun

Pom Pom Ribbon

 Scarf #1.)

I took a gray circle scarf I got from Old Navy ($1.00) and embellished (fancy word for hot gluing) it with pom pom ribbon I found at Michaels ($1.39). This is a tedious process but in the end it's worth it. So Cute!

 Scarf #2.)

This cream colored scarf, found at a charity shop ($0.25), was in need of a serious upgrade. Adding a whimsical print like the hearts, via red acrylic paint, is just what it needed. I free handed mine, but feel free to use a stencil for the perfect heart. Also, this could be really sweet for the upcoming holiday (hint, hint)!

 Scarf #3.)

 Animal print is a trend that will forever be in style. However, this Old Navy ($1.00) circle scarf just wasn't doing anything for me. Cut in half and enhanced with fringe, this scarf is now worth every penny! Here's a tutorial on how to revamp a drab scarf to fab, in minutes, so easy!
