If You Want Something Do It Yourself: Ombre Desk Decor


I can never keep the same surroundings for too long when it comes to my desk. I like to change things up a bit so that I'm constantly inspired. When I saw this rhino decor, I knew I had to have something like it for myself. And because I couldn't find a rhino, I went with a deer instead...they're just as cool you know. Anyway I've really been into the whole ombre trend so I thought it would be perfect to apply it to this diy project.

Want one too? Here's how to do it yourself:


Just a few tips:

If you have white spray paint, I would use that instead for the first step.
If you don't, when applying the paint I found the color went on better when I sponged it rather than painted it on.
Oh and yes I know the supplies picture has red paint but I changed my mind and went with yellow...go with whatever color will make you happiest.

Sponsor Question of the Month: May

Every month I like to ask the sponsors a fun question so all of you can get to know them a bit better. This month I asked, Who is your dream celebrity best friend?
Here's what some of them had to say...
_____________________________________________________________________



Can it be a TV character too? Then I think I'd go with Angela from Bones, so I could share her amaaaazing wardrobe!  I'd love her as a friend because she's so sweet and helpfull, and always finds the right words.


My dream celebrity best friend would be Emma Stone. She seems so down to earth and nice, not to mention absolutely hilarious! Emma, I'm totally available if you want to grab some fro-yo and laugh til it hurts! ;)


My dream celebrity best friend is.... Johnny Depp! I admire him not only as an actor but also as a person. If I could be friends with any celebrity or just meet them, it would be him..... Plus I think he's pretty cute ;) 
_____________________________________________________________

Last time, some of you were wondering my answer to the question so I decided I would answer it this time...

When I was younger my dream celebrity best friend or should I say friends were always Mary Kate & Ashley Olsen. What girl didn't love those two growing up? These days if I had to pick one celebrity to be my best friend I would go with Lauren Conrad. The girl has got some serious style, seems so sweet, and I pretty much love everything she does.



So now I want to know from you. 
Who is your dream celebrity best friend?

Interior Design Turned Fashion: Chevron and Sequins


I'm guessing it has to do something with my love for stripes but one of my favorite things about this room is the chevron rug. Also I'm loving the color combo going on here: lilac, green, raspberry, and seafoam...they just seem to work perfectly when all thrown together on a neutral palette. I tried to put these fun design elements into this look with a skirt that has a pretty drape like the curtains, a sequin collar that shimmers like the eye catching mirror, a multi color chevron bag that's even more gorgeous than the rug, and of course having fun with the color palette.
