DIY flower headband.

So i'm going to a wedding next weekend, and I wanted something fun to wear. I got a pretty plain black dress and decided I wanted to add the fun factor with a floral headband. So I scoured the internet for the best DIY tutorial, and got started...

Now that i'm finished, I decided to make my own tutorial to share with you what no other tutorial wants to share with you...THIS SHIT IS HARD!!!


Let's get started, shall we?!



Ok, so for the materials I went to Michaels. They had everything I needed and a pretty good selection of fake flowers. 
Here's what you need:
1. Whatever fake flowers you want.
2. Floral Tape.
3. Floral Wire.
4. Pliers. (not pictured cause i'm an IDIOT and didn't use them.)
5. Wire Cutters.

 This project took me about 1.5 hours to complete, and $20 for materials. 

Step 1:
measure the wire to fit your head how you'd want to wear it. [headband, crown, etc.]  then times that by about 3 so you have enough wire to wrap around the circle.* 
*this part fucking SUCKS. they don't tell you this in those super easy sounding DIY tutorials. It took me about an hour to wrap the wire, and my fingers now feel like I was just holding hands with Edward Scissorhands at a middle school dance.

Step 2:
cut down the fake flowers  to be just under the flower  part with a little extra plastic to wrap. Layer the flowers however looks good to you. wrap each flower with the floral wire. [if you don't want to repeatedly stab yourself the whole time, use pliers.]

Step 3:
Once you have all the flowers wrapped and looking how want, use the floral tape to wrap the ends of the wires.
*you can wrap the tape all the way around if you want to make it look a little cleaner.


Step 4:
You're done! try it on for size and to see if you need to add any flowers in.


I'll blog some pics from the wedding and my outfit all together for you guys next weekend!!

Have a good week!

Danielle.






         

Sometimes you gotta just jump back out there...


 You guys...I'm starting to date again and it's getting serious. We've been hanging out a lot,pretty consistenly. 4 nights a week and we stay the night together sometimes too. We laugh,cry and enjoy music together which is super important to me. It seems like for once in my life, I'm really being understood and I never feel like I'm let down....HBO Go, thank you for being there for me and giving me Entourage,The Wire,How to Make it America and Big Love. I really feel like this could go somewhere. I'm excited to see our future together.

TGIB...S?

Obviously my life has been a litttttle bit hectic as of late, so hectic in fact, that Friday came, and went, and I honestly wouldn't have even thought twice about it if Kat hadn't texted me and said "D..babe friday? its almost Sunday!"

I apologize for slacking on the eye candy, my friends.
This weeks babe is someone who is my current leg workout inspiration..
Her legs are about to be gracing my vision board...
and as I've tweeted before...they should have their own cult following...Not only does this country babe have the best gams in all the land...she's real easy on the eyes...so enjoy yourselves some Carrie Underwood on this early Sunday morning.

remember 2005 American Idol Carrie?!

girl sure has stepped it up in the past 8 years!



Now let's all take a moment to admire the perfection that is Carrie Underwoods legs...





oh yeah, lets not forget the lady can sing, too...

People suck

I'm on one.


   I realize more and more how much I really don't like people. Most of them my friends. Ok, if you're reading this and you're my friend, chill the fuck out,I like you.....if we are true friends. But being born and raised in this small ass city,(believe me, we are all one degree away of having slept with each other), I know waaay too many people and I really don't care for half of them. I think in my old age of 29, I know I'm not old but in my sober state I've been enduring the past two months, I've realized that I am waaaay too nice to people who do not deserve it. I also am waaay too giving to people who smile at my face and talk shit about me behind my back. Believe me I know what you say people, other people love to tell me and I'm better at it then you are!! It stems from being a bitch for so many years. I've recently have slowly backed away and removed myself from toxic relationships and group settings that lack substance because I just don't care about these people or things anymore. I also stay off of social media. Which is the number one way to make you feel like shit about yourself when you should be telling yourself how fucking awesome you are!! I mean, I will post a pic here and there but I don't scroll through the bullshit to see people's whack ass lives. Life is not a popularity contest people. If you are my friend, you talk to me and I talk to you. Simple as that. Communication and upholding the friendship. Just wanted to share some things that have been on my mind lately and it makes me grateful for the wonderful people I do have in my life. Which honestly,I have way more than anyone ever should. Also, I need to start smoking weed again. Good day.

Clear eyes, babe hearts..

I decided on whim after Kat shared a link with me of Matt Saracen's real life wedding (you should really check it out here ) to re-watch Friday Night Lights.

So I am dedicating this weeks Babe Friday to the one and only Taylor Kitsch, better known as Tim Riggins. If you haven't had the pleasure of watching Taylor in all his babeliness on FNL, you should probably start that, like, yesterday! its on Netflix streaming...you're welcome.

Babetown U.S.A.

This friday I wanna take some time to introduce you all to my favorite babe of the moment. 
L.A. based pop-princess BANKS.

[Here is her just released single 'Warm Water']

[and my personal fave, and current anthem 'Before I Ever Met You']

You can also follow her on pretty much every social media outlet, if your little heart desires.

Trendsetter

I don't pop Molly, I rock Tom Ford. - Jay Z (trendsetter)

 I sometimes wonder what I'm capable of getting people to agree to do. Whether it's committing to a trip to taking a shot. I was getting my hair did the other day and whilst being under the dryer, I sent D a selfie because she has to know my every move. Obvi. 


Yeah. I know I'm pretty. (This is what unemployment looks like kids.)  

I say lets do pics with no lips. 
Automatically D sends me one back. 


 I then decide this is hilarious because I'm a child and want more. I proceed to send this text to people I talk to on the regular to see how many will oblige.


How many you ask? This many do. 


The people in my life rule. Good day. 
(I swear I will get a job soon.)

Xo,
Kat

Some people wear their heart up on their sleeve. I wear mine underneath my right pant leg, strapped to my boot.
-Ani DiFranco







I feel like I never even got a summer, but alas, Fall is almost here. No one is a bigger fan of boots than I am, So I would be lying if I said I weren't a little bit excited for coats, and scarves, and pumpkin spice lattes, and boots
I'm rounding up some of my favorite looks for you guys to check out.

Clockwise from top:
