Awesome blog find!

So I don't know how I missed this, but there's a blog called P.S. - I made this and it's GREAT! Obviously, it's filled with D.I.Y. fashion and the results are amazing... who knew so much could be D.I.Y? Here are my favorite posts:

wrap heel
w/ Proenza Schouler
statement necklace
stud a shirt!
Preppy necklace
Tie-dye shirt
Embellished headband - so simple!
punky cuff bracelet
cork earrings

So, of course, I like shiny things, and what better way to control the amount of shiny than DIY? Here are a pair of earrings I made for a friend:


They's so pretty!

I have a confession to make: I am a contest addict! Here is a picture I posted on the REVOLVE Spring Style contest on Chictopia.com :

It took me forever to make the spring imagery around me, but it was soooooooooo much fun! The flowers and birds are origami, the tree trunk was made using GIMP (free image editing software), and the rest was hand-drawn.

I am sooooooooo bad at contests where you win by the number of votes you get! I need to stop doing "popularity" contests! But they often have the most awesome prizes...... sigh........ what is a contest addict to do?

Bluefly contest

Bluefly is doing a $500 contest where you upload a picture of the fly-est thing in your closet and the one with the most votes wins!

Check out my entry here and please vote for them if you think they're fly! I'd be happy to return the favor - just leave your link in the comments box :)

I'll put the picture here too because I'm so proud of these babies:

I hand-rhinestoned and flowered every detail into these shoes... they cost me at least $100 and a LOT of time but it was so worth it! I love them.
