My Outfit ~ Rose, Black, & Gray

Hi lovelies and happy Friday!  Today's look is a bit conservative but major fun.  I wanted to wear this rose hued pleated skirt from Target that I bought months ago but hadn't worn yet.  So I challenged myself to throw something together in my normal 2 minute getting dressed morning haste and came up with this.  I'm kind of loving it, and the vibe is very me.  {More after the jump}

My Outfit ~ My Eclectic Style & Swarovski DIY Giveaway Winner

Hey lovelies!  It's Wednesday... we're halfway there right?  Well today I've got something different for you... it's (gasp!) an outfit post!  Usually I feel that what I throw on in my morning haste (getting myself & the kids fed, lunches packed, dressed and out the door) is definitely not worthy of sharing, and I do hide under my casual work dress code.  But yesterday, I decided to throw on something different, and I loved it and needed to share!  {More after the jump}

Swarovski Elements Create Your Style Giveaway!

Hi lovelies!  Create Your Style with Swarovski Elements recently introduced me to their new Create Your Style Color Carousel app, and I find SUPER useful when creating jewelry and other DIYs, as well as when putting outfits together.  I'm showing the paper version above, that I keep handy.  But you can download the app for your iPhone or tablet at the iTunes store too! You choose a main color, and then it shows you what coordinating and contrasting colors to use with it to make your design pop!  {More after the jump}
