I'm Back!

As you can see I've changed my blog around a little bit, I just got back from a wonderful
adventure. This blog was first intended for just fashion and fashion ideas, but I expanded it so there can be many other topics too, like celebrity gossip, news, recipes and just about anything stay tuned!

Fashion Winter Wonderland

It's getting colder and winter is almost here, what will you be wearing this winter? staying warm and still looking good is always nice because fashion is all seasons.

Scarves with matching hats always tones up your outfit in cold seasons.

Boots that flatter your outfit are always in style and you can easily find a pair to fit your outfit.

Jeans are always in the closet and they are a perfect match for your favorite scarves, hats and boots.

Shirts, well you can wear just about any warm shirt that suits your style.

Hoodies are in style this year (I LOVE THOSE).

Stay Warm.

Are you wearing the right shorts for your body type?

Here's a few tips so you can look good struttin' your shorts this summer:

If you have a Saddle Bottom wear shorts that resembles a flowing skirt or loose fitting shorts with an elastic band waist because it covers up everything you don't want to be seen.

Wild pattern shorts or surfer shorts are the right ones to wear when you have No Bottom.

Shorts with big legs are just not right for Skinny Legs, they can make your legs look skinnier, daisy duke shorts (short shorts) are the perfect shorts for shinny legs.

Short Legs need to have lots of leg showing to make their legs look longer, short shorts are the perfect choice.

Tummy Sticks Out A Bit? wear shorts that is dark in color to camouflage the tummy and try classic cut shorts that sits on the hip.

So there, you have no excuse for not wearing shorts this summer.

My Top 5 Summer Fashion No-No's

Not trying to be offensive but..........

• Do not wear belly shirts if your belly sticks out noticeably.



• Cotton stretch pants are great for lounging around the house, but not for outdoors, the knee part looks too baggy when worn and overall it's just not a nice look for outdoors.



• Incorrectly self tanners (too much can give it a orange look) YUCK!



• Colored or patterned panties under white pants.(looks very tacky).



• Nice sandal on feet that's not cared for. (get a nice pedicure so you feet can look good in sandals).

Tie-Dyeing T-shirts Using Powder Dye

Tie-dye t-shirts is one of the world's favorite t-shirt and is quite easy to make, you can also make them for personal use or for profit. You'll need:

1. A soaking tub or large pot.




2. Dye (to save money use powder dye).




3. Rubber gloves (to protect hands from dye).




4. Rubber bands.




5. Dye pre-activator (to help the dye absorb through the fabric).




6. Plastic.




7. Squeeze bottle.

Directions:

• Mix powder dye with water in a squeeze bottle.




• Shake the mixture (make sure you protect your hands w/rubber gloves).




• Soak the shirt in the dye pre-activator for 10 minutes.




• Fold or gather the fabric and wrap rubber bands along the length of the fabric (rubber bands create the pattern by blocking the dye).




• Dye is squeezed into the shirt to create a pattern.




• Wrap the shirt in plastic for 24 hrs. to set the dye before you rinse it.

And........Voila! you have a Tie-Dye T-shirt.
