Chiffon Rose Embellishment On Thrift Store Finds

Embellished cardigans are big this fall and winter..

They can also be super pricey..

How can you be in style and not break your budget..

Create your own one of a kind cardigan!

We are doing chiffon roses for ours, ours being me and my 11year old and 9 year old daughters..

We find a cardigan we love and "jazz it up" to make it our own couture style.

I found a great DIY for these roses from Calamity Kim's blog .

What other ways can you think of to make your clothing one of a kind.??

Fall's Must Have....

This autumn as I scour through the fashion magazines, one things stands out besides the skinny jeans (that only a select few can pull off) is the cardigan!!!

I started digging around in my closet to see how many I had.. To my horror I had a couple and in non basic colors and a couple in basic colors.. Don't get me wrong I LOVE the sky blue and hot pink ones I have, but it is always good to have your neutrals to match everything..

I am all about all diffrent types of cardigans, so I am giving examples of what to be on the lookout for. Long, short, bell sleeved, cashmere, polyester I love them all!

I have highlighted a few of my favs from (in order) DownEast Basics, Metrostyle and Newport News.
