I’m going to tell you a secret that shoe retailers and your shoe repair man don’t want you to know. You can turn your dated round or almond toe shoes into a classic pointed toe pair, and you can do it yourself. I had this pair of brown suede Chanel mary janes. The suede had seen better days and the almond toe pump was dating them far more than the few scuffs. However, I have a sentimental attachment to those…
While runways and high street are the things fashion fantasies are made of, I am most inspired by street fashion and personal style.

You probably own a scalloped lace trimmed dress, skirt or tank that you’re over, so why not reconstruct it and make a chic…
Since I’ve been on a painting kick lately, I decided to keep the momentum going and finally DIY the Chanel Striped Top I’ve been lusting after. When I first saw this street style inspired take on a classic Parisian striped tee worn by Sienna Miller I had two thoughts: 1. I want that, and 2. I can make that. If any of you felt the same way, you already know we pretty much had to since this beauty sold out…

Know before you go. Call (this won’t work at most locations, but it worked at Target last time) or…
