Have a good weekend!

What are your plans for this weekend?
Miss Heather, Raven, Tim and a bunch of other friends are all in Arkansas camping this weekend while I'm hanging around in town to celebrate my little brother's 19th birthday!


Priorities
Picture quote of the week sums up what priorities are...haha

Tom has gotten us all addicted to this crazy song. 

I think I want a pair of Hunter Wellies.
I'm leaning towards the classic yellow.

This cracked me up.
Come on, you've thought this at least before!

If you're from Missouri, you should come to Soulard's Oktoberfest on October 12-14!
It's one of my new favorite fall activities!

See you on Monday!

DIY: Cloth Name Banner

Early last winter I made some fun name banners to hang up in my room and this time I've come back to show you a fun new idea on the name banners! I wanted to make a little something to make my new roommate, Raven, feel more at home and hopefully this did the trick!

Supplies:
Cloth
Yarn
Construction paper
Scissors (you may also need an exacto knife)
Needle and thread (or a sewing machine)

Step One:
Cut out the letters you will need for the name.

Step Two:
Trace and cut out triangles big than the letters you cut out in step one.

Step Three:
Fold the top part of the triangles over and pin your letters to them.

Step Four:
Sew along the fold making sure to get the letter as well. Also cut off those excess flaps from you folded over the top of the triangle.

Step Five:
All that is left is to string the yarn through the tunnels you made when you folded the triangles. Then hang up your banner wherever you want!

I hung up my banners in the living room above the T.V. and I think they look so cute! What do you guys think?

Do or Don't: High Low

So another fashion trend showing up more and more is the high low trend. Whether it's a skirt, shirt or even a blouse the concept is still the same, high hem in the front and low hem in the back. 



I love this skirt!
Found this dress at The Spotted Moth

I can safely speak for Miss Mel when I say she definitely thinks they are a do. I mean look at that awesome dress she's  wearing!
Our friend, Ellen, and Miss Mel!

So what do you guys think? Is the high low trend a do or don't? 
I would have say they're definitely a do! I think the shape looks good on any body style and let's face it "one size fits all" rarely applies to clothes. If you haven't check out any out you should!
