Item Review: Vera Bradley, Vera tote

    Hey guys so from now on I will be doing item or product  reviews on things that I think that work really well and that I want to share with you guys. So lets get to it. I love purses and bags, but most of all I care about if they are useful. Lately I've been loving my Vera Bradley one shoulder Vera tote bag. I love the pattern on the outside of the bag and all that space inside of it. You can put so much stuff inside. It's more of an everyday bag, it can be used for work, school and play.

  The bags comes in twenty-three different patterns, it also has six pockets on the inside and two on the outside. It also can be washed in the washing machine and dried in the dryer. At the bottom of the bag there's a board to keep the bad standing. It is very light and it doesn't heart your shoulders when you're carrying it, because the straps are quilted. The bag costs $86.00 on verabradley.com and in the Vera Bradley stores.

DIY Halloween Costume Ideas

       Halloween is next week and I am super excited. Halloween is the day that you can be whatever you want to be. Personally it's my favorite holiday. I'm one of those people that don't have time to go to the Halloween store and pick out a costume. I think that homemade costumes are much more creative and glamorous. There are many pieces of the costume that you can easily find in your closet. Also your costume is one of a kind and very inexpensive.

Some very cute and creative costume ideas!
- Minnie Mouse
- Nerd
- Carly Rae Jepsen
- Dorothy
- Red Riding Hood
- Mad Hatter

      Mad Hatter: Usually more girls are the Mad Hatter for Halloween than guys. In this video by  Macbarbie07 of course, Bethany shows us how to create a more girly virgin of the Mad Hatter. Bethany also shows us how to make our own Mad Hatter hat. Most of the pieces of the costume were found in her closet. The key to the Mad Hatter costume is to be funky. I through that Bethany did a really good job recreating the look, it looks so gorgeous and special. 


Minnie Mouse: I think that Minnie mouse is the cutest Disney character. the essentials for the Minnie Mouse costume, are the mouse ears, a red and white pocka dot blouse and Minnie's red toto. For a tutorial you can visit http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cGmncKs0H1s&feature=relmfu. 

Nerd: A nerd costume is like the most easiest to make. You will need of course, some nerd glasses. Also you need suspenders, high knee socks, high waisted short or pants and a button up shirt. For a tutorial you can visit http://www.youtube.com/watch?

Scarves

   Scarves are one of my essentials things for fall and winter. I own many scarves and I think they just jazz up your outfit. If you're wearing a plain color t-shirt why not jazz it up with a colorful scarf. In my opinion scarves go with everything blouses, dresses, t-shirts etc. During the fall and winter scarves can keep your neck warm and add a touch a outfit. During spring and summer I prefer very thin and light weight scarves so you won't get too hot. Personally I like patterned scarves, they just give you that pop of color in your outfit!

Check out this video that shows you 52 ways to wear your scarves during the winter.

Have fun with your scarfs, turn your creativity on! They aren't just for wear around you neck anymore. Your big scarves can be made into many things   vests, cardigans, blouses, swimsuit cover ups etc. One scarf can be wore over 100 different ways. Also you can find very cool and unique scarves for a cheat price at many stores. I hope my blog post gave you more information about scarves, Bye!

Kate Middleton

    Kate Middleton has to be one of the most fashionable people I know. Just look at what she wears to all the events. On her wedding day back in April of 2011 Kate looked stunning in her Alexander McQueen wedding dress. Kate's dress let her show her neckline, the lace sleeves also add that edgy look. I was shocked to hear that Kate did her own makeup on her wedding, she looked absolutely gorgeous. Kate's style is classic and sheik . Kate knew how to mix and match, Kate is a true fashionista!

Kate's top outfits

                  
                Kate is a very ECO friendly person. She recycles and donates the clothes she doesn't wear anymore. Also Kate helps a lot of needy people around the world. Kate is a great role model for young people.

                However, being duchess  isn't so easy. Being duchess is much more than just being the prince's wife and being pretty, okay maybe you do have to be kind of pretty. You represent Great Britain, and the Royal Family. People look up to you. You got to know that people are following your every movement. You often have to represent the queen and go to very important events, it's a big responsibility. When there is a problem you have to "Keep Calm and Carry On."
