DIY INSPIRATION | Studded

11.04.2012



I know the Valentino studded clutches and shoes are sooo last season, but something about lining the edges of everything you own in studs keeps me coming back to these images. I love that it can give a bag or pair of flats in your closet a makeover, and after buying a bag of rounded studs, everything on my feet and in my arms is currently covered. Slay tuned for how it turned out!

I also wanted to take a minute to say Thank You to everyone who sent kind words and messages during the hurricane. The power and heat is back on in my apt, and things are getting back to normal in  my neighborhood. Sadly, not everyone in the surrounding areas were as fortunate. If you have not already, take a minute and donate what you can to the Red Cross.
