I got a wild hair up my arse yesterday and decided that I needed a multicolored belt, so instead of running to the mall like a fool, I decided on what may be the easiest DIY in history. I took my three go-to skinny belts, braided them together, and voila! I thought it looked pretty sweet.
I needed a new white dress since my steady F21 eyelet dress finally bit the bucket after years of neglect and spray tans. I chose this one from J.Crew and wanted to make a few notes in case you were in the market for a LWD. The eyelet material isn't thick to the point where it won't wrinkle (obviously) so know that going in. I had it on for a couple hours and it was definitely a big wrinkled mess, hence the reason why I didn't do any full length pics in this post. On the other hand, the light material is great for the humid Texas heat we are experiencing right now. All in all, it's a keeper for me since it's conservative enough to wear to work.
I am absolutely in love with this eyelet dress from Target. How amazing is the back. It's on it's way to me as we speak and I pray that it fits!

ReplyDeleteThat's actually an awesome idea I haven't seen yet - just pinned it! It's an adorable dress even if it is a wrinkle mess by the end of the day! You look fab! xx, Allie
ReplyDeleteBraided belt idea is pure genius! I have several and can't wait to try it!
ReplyDeleteYou look lovely - as usual.
The belts look great braided together like that! What a smart idea. I love how the neon pops against the white, too.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea! I love the pops of colour against the white dress and as always, your hair looks fabulous....why can't I get mine to do that?! :-)

I have the straightest, stringiest hair and until I found the Remington T-Studio Pearl Curling Wand, it wouldn't hold the curl. I love it!!! I bought the smaller one at first because I didn't think my hair would hold the curl, but it was too tight, so I traded for the bigger one. It doesn't burn my hair and it lasts through day 2 with some dry shampoo.
