  • Easy Fixes To 9 Common Fashion Problems

    Easy Fixes To 9 Common Fashion Problems

    Fashion problems can occur at any moment.  Here are common fashion/style-relate problems and say ways to solve them.
    pexels-photo-267292.jpeg
    Blisters From Shoes –  Lightly coat it with chapstick you likely already have in your bag.  Then use a thin piece of tissue to act as a barrier to protect it.  That should make them a bit more comfortable until you’re headed home.  Also, avoid wearing heels that have really thin straps.  They can press into your feet causing blisters, too.

    Maxis That Are Too Long – Tuck in the bottom like a hem.  Use a safety pin to secure the temporary hem.  Be sure to secure from the inside to hide the safety pin.

    Deodorant Stains – Rub the spot together with a deodorant-free part of the dress and watch it will disappear!

    The Smiley Face Bag
    Where To Put Your Bag? –  Tables, countertops, bar stools and other public areas are so dirty.  And I’m talking about the germs you can’t see!  To avoid this, rock a bag that has a crossbody strap.  When sitting it will automatically stay in your clean lap, no worries about putting it on the bathroom counter when washing your hands, and dancing handsfree is definitely the way to go!

    How Much Cleavage Is Too Much? –  There are no cleavage zones…church, work, and your kids school play, for instance.  Other than that, you decide your own cleavage.  As long as you are completely comfortable with it.  That’s the major key.

    Chipped Polish – Use a marker or even a pen as a temporary fix.

    “This dress makes me look/feel chubby” – Try it with a belt or with high heeled shoes.

    What To Wear – Don’t overthink it.  When in doubt.  Keep it simple.

  • The Key To Following Trends (And Setting Them) Without looking Like You’re Trying Too Hard

    The Key To Following Trends (And Setting Them) Without looking Like You’re Trying Too Hard

    This might come as a surprise but…you are a trendsetter.  If you didn’t already know, let me be the first one to give you the good news!  Don’t get me wrong, the celebrities, musicians, and bloggers whos’ style some immolate are trendsetters, too.  But what makes them any more of a trendsetter than you?

    Their bank account.  Who says you have to be wearing a $350 dollar t-shirt to be a trendsetter?

    Their social media presence?  Contrary to others opinion, you don’t need millions of followers to set trends.  There are other ways!  

    I can go over a mile long list of excuses but the truth is two things separate us from you.  Confidence and fearlessness.  They have the confidence to wear it.  Along with the fearlessness of not giving a shit what we think about it.  That’s it!  Sounds simple enough, right?

    Let me break it down for you.  Following trends and maximizing the trendsetter in you will be too easy with these tips.…

    When it comes to following trends…

    • Wear one trend at a time – too many trends at once screams, “Please think I’m cool!”
    • Make it your own –
    • Don’t copy, get inspired – I don’t know about you but who likes a copycat?? I’ll wait.  Exactly!  Let the styles that you see on tv, videos, and social media inspire you.  Don’t let it make you want to become an exact replica.  Putting a pink rinse on your hair is one thing.  But having surgery to make your ears flat like theirs…come on now!
    • Accept that all trends aren’t for you.  Just because someone said it’s a “thing” doesn’t mean it has to be your thing!  Clear vinyl tops and skirts are a thing too, but you won’t catch me in one.  Just saying…

    When you want to show off the trendsetter in you…

    • This is YOUR style trend.  No one else has to like it.
    • Be realistic.  If receiving title of “top trendsetter” is your goal than you have to know that wearing a fake peacock on a headband won’t go far.
    • Embrace your crazy – Not peacock on the headband crazy.  But just because your squad didn’t run out to buy the same thing, doesn’t mean it isn’t trendsetting.  Don’t be afraid to try something different.
    • Don’t overthink it.  Fashion and style is supposed to be fun.  Something that makes you feel good.  It you put it on and it feels good to you…then go with it!
    • Fake it tip you make it.  Confidence is and always will be key.  But that doesn’t mean that there aren’t times when you wear something and think, “is this a good look?”.  Be happy with your style choice and wear it confidence.  But in the meantime remember that the key to faking confidence…a smile.

    Now go out there and set some trends!  How do you show off the trendsetter in you?  Which of these tips do you find most useful?  Let me know in the comments…

  • Yes, you can rock a harness! Here’s How

    Yes, you can rock a harness! Here’s How

    On FNF, I’m always discussing unique accessories and today is no different!  The accessory I am talking about just happens to be one that I am asked about the most.  No kidding.  At each pop up shop, at least a couple of women ask, “What is this?” and “How do I wear it?”  And let me not forget the husbands who always refer to it as some sort of sex toy.  “I can’t wait to play with this” and “Does she have to wear it with a shirt?” are two popular ones.  I guess seeing a strappy, leather harness on a hanger can really get your sexual thoughts going, right?! 🤔

    One thing is for sure, if you are looking for something different than look no further than a harness.  For a lots of reasons, some of which being that its’ versatility is powerful because it can be worn over any style of top and/or dress.  It transcends all seasons.  Plus, it is the type of piece fashionistas look for!  If you are in need of harness outfit inspiration, feast your eyes on these looks with the Dominating Harness.

    A Mini, A Midi, and A Knee Length: 3 Dresses For Date Night Depending On Your Mood

    Date night is crucial whether you have been together forever or if this is your first time meeting.  It’s a occasion to cut off your phones (yes, cut them off), throw on a cute dress, and spend time with your boo that involves actual eye contact.

    I’m sure alot of you are like me when it comes to dresses.  I pick my dress based on my mood for the day.  Sometimes I want to wear the shortest, sexiest thing I can find.  Other dates, I want to only show my shoulders or a maxi.  Here are 3 dresses to consider for date night based on your mood.

  • Freaking Out Over These Fringe Earrings

    Freaking Out Over These Fringe Earrings

    Fringe can take a look from blah to blam…real quick!  The devil truly is in the details when it comes to styling and profiling.  Fringe is the perfect example of this.   It’s a stylish detail to stand out from the crowd.   Isn’t that the point?!

    If you’ve read my previous posts, you will know that this girl has a thing for fringe. Feeling the fringe doesn’t mean you have to wear a fully fringed dress or fringed back moto jacket.  A pair of earrings will do the trick.  That’s why I’m freaking out over the Fringe Gem Earrings just added to the BLB!  Take a look…
