Yours truly is finally a senior! I'm terribly sorry about the lack of posts at the end of the summer, life at Urban Outfitters was incredibly busy...though all of the hard work certainly paid off : )<br />I plan on posting photos of some highlights of my summer in Philly as well as some deets about my incredible internship very soon, I can't wait to share with you all. In the meantime, I'd love to tell you about one of my latest projects.<br /><br />My first day back in Gainesville was very exciting because upon my arrival I had a few hours to style looks for my own photo shoot with one of my favorite local publications, <a href="http://www.thefineprintuf.org/">The Fine Print</a>. This summer I was asked to write a 'Guide to Gainesville Thrifting' for The Fine Print's "Guide to Gainesville" edition, which comes out today! Of course, I jumped at the opportunity. When I was asked to put together outfits inspired by my love of thrifted finds to be shot for the story, I was both nervous and elated (I'm very camera shy!). I am so thrilled to share some of my favorite second-hand spots with you, as well as show you some of my prized vintage treasures. I think incorporating vintage into your everyday wardrobe is such a wonderful way to enhance your personal style and shop in an environmentally conscious manner. Thrifted pieces are often so beautiful and well made, once you give it a try you'll love mixing in these treasures with pieces currently in your closet. In pulling looks for the shoot, I even surprised myself with how much vintage I wear on a day-to-day basis. Oh how I adore old things!<br /></div><br />Here is a sneak peek of my photoshoot:<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="file:///Users/Flavia/Library/Caches/TemporaryItems/moz-screenshot.png" alt="" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfGhC6eibXKReFfI7on-jiwWCziEjD2ILODLJvncm0npncrn1g9lTQr2fekQYmhcEzBcezVYgECbifmLiYjrxr9lGGaHTkIS5G2nGgwGEV8PxVHsMukYT5F9gtka14F_IiMphbx4D6oxFg/s1600/_X3G9932.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 267px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfGhC6eibXKReFfI7on-jiwWCziEjD2ILODLJvncm0npncrn1g9lTQr2fekQYmhcEzBcezVYgECbifmLiYjrxr9lGGaHTkIS5G2nGgwGEV8PxVHsMukYT5F9gtka14F_IiMphbx4D6oxFg/s400/_X3G9932.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5509211617435847794" border="0" /></a></div><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9ipcC9RVkx6mKtdsHKotoJkVlJNVF_l5YXofkgh3YsPHQWs9H-FU3biJxjK3Q6rzi4kLQS60_Dang7DR4q1WeeLprMkKlsu43SYVplvwOfD-G1tyklb_JkdbmrMzVGTrd94sFSdeStCeu/s1600/_X3G9864.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 229px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9ipcC9RVkx6mKtdsHKotoJkVlJNVF_l5YXofkgh3YsPHQWs9H-FU3biJxjK3Q6rzi4kLQS60_Dang7DR4q1WeeLprMkKlsu43SYVplvwOfD-G1tyklb_JkdbmrMzVGTrd94sFSdeStCeu/s400/_X3G9864.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5509211379698898626" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-LvUb1bq5GTpv8V2ExqRmsBgva70SAHsDxA0_aNXWQWCwlLPzCwQEnTsrMfjPARfdcG9HI6TN-qyFf8oVhFDxiknZu8g6jEJPtBgTuarI6uYF3neYWNjDyz8MFybUxO4tNSfzv6869lA_/s1600/_X3G9998.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 267px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-LvUb1bq5GTpv8V2ExqRmsBgva70SAHsDxA0_aNXWQWCwlLPzCwQEnTsrMfjPARfdcG9HI6TN-qyFf8oVhFDxiknZu8g6jEJPtBgTuarI6uYF3neYWNjDyz8MFybUxO4tNSfzv6869lA_/s400/_X3G9998.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5509211219986565202" border="0" /></a>Photos by Henry Taskier<br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Outfit 1:</span> Vintage Head Scarf (worn as a turban), Urban Outfitters taffeta bustier, Vintage Escada Trousers, Vintage Florsheim Pumps, Vintage Chanel belt, Vintage jewels, Vintage pearl clutch.<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Outfit 2:</span> Urban Outfitters blouse, Vintage 1950s skirt, Nine West jewel pumps, Vintage gold belt, Vintage beaded clutch, Vintage jewels<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Outfit 3:</span> Vintage blouse with a pearl collar, Urban Outfitters scalloped shorts, Dolce Vita platform pumps, Vintage beaded purse, Vintage jewels<br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">If you're in Gainesville, don't forget to pick up the latest edition of The Fine Print and check out the story for yourself.

I recently picked up this pretty tunic from Urban Outfitters. I've been opening my heart up to red lately and these sweet stripes fit the bill. The skirt and belt I've had for years.

Meeting the other interns, staff, and my fabulous marketing team just has my heart fluttering. I've already learned so much and have met so many wonderful, brilliant minds.<br /><br />With the help of a few of my besties, I chose this butterfly (or <span style="font-style: italic;">flutterby</span>) inspired outfit for my first day. I was so tired after a long day's work that I couldn't help but do silly poses. I love that when you lift your arms in this adorable Urban Outfitter's MINKPINK dress, you look like you're in flight.

I'm so excited to report on this beautiful city. I live right in Center City, Philadelphia, near all of the incredible shops, parks and restaurants.

This was so much fun! All of my best friends came out to support me and we got the word out to UFs campus about Gainesville Fashion Week! The show was so much work, but it was an incredible experience to get to plan, promote, and execute a fashion show from start to finish.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">-Wednesday Night: a few on-campus interviews and then another fabulous GFW model rehearsal</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">-Thursday night was Dahlia boutique's Genetic Denim trunk show! Dahlia was packed with beautiful dresses and incredible jeans. I left with an adorable hot pink dress that I had actually pulled for Tuesday night's fashion show! I'm thinking Dahlia's fashion show will be the perfect night to debut it...</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">-Joanna Newsom show on Friday night was incredible! She was so wonderful, now I need to learn to play harp!</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">-Saturday: recovery. I spent Saturday night helping out with BobbyK's video shoot. I'll tell you this much...his fashion show is going to be amazing!!</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">I'm really looking forward to everything that I have coming up! Here are links to some of the stories that were published about Tuesday's fashion show along with some photographs from last week (stolen from GFWs fan page).

We're looking forward to eating at our favorite bistros, consignment shop hopping, and listening to the sweet voice of Joanna Newsom. I'm looking forward to the chilly evening and wearing an ultra-feminine outfit. Think Parisian-blue capelet dress with Sam Edelman bow flats and Betsey Johnson bow accessories placed throughout. Oh, and my faux-fur coat! It's been a long, busy week so this mini-vacation is just what I need. Here are some photos of Joanna wearing two of my favorite designers, Rodarte and Alexander McQueen.</div><div><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgTldZuaZLH7P0HUBwlRPbmIENEW5-S9V2TXZ-ZeqXlLrZ_dwsg6EQEgwir66EEgN5cXuRdTEXLJjCrrTNLYjEmGTVBPaS_GFvJB0VfQAQR-zXhUrGkWiQPdT8DqPC-KTdzEHM1YKLWYfv/s1600/joanna1.png"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 274px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgTldZuaZLH7P0HUBwlRPbmIENEW5-S9V2TXZ-ZeqXlLrZ_dwsg6EQEgwir66EEgN5cXuRdTEXLJjCrrTNLYjEmGTVBPaS_GFvJB0VfQAQR-zXhUrGkWiQPdT8DqPC-KTdzEHM1YKLWYfv/s400/joanna1.png" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5452993884614182386" /></a><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#0000EE;"><br /></span></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg92sIVI-7xOO3ANnrRfxXUz_VnzaY-o42Ng5UGr8VnttuKSDo5nLsnepkfPTLdwfAQcPDMYFrrRaLYh6UXuKffCmuKHb1TK3eUDfB5qgWcGZREu3EdDdIgTw0XEL3TXFUAirZZeA6L23Ac/s1600/joanna_newsom-paper_fashion.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 311px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg92sIVI-7xOO3ANnrRfxXUz_VnzaY-o42Ng5UGr8VnttuKSDo5nLsnepkfPTLdwfAQcPDMYFrrRaLYh6UXuKffCmuKHb1TK3eUDfB5qgWcGZREu3EdDdIgTw0XEL3TXFUAirZZeA6L23Ac/s400/joanna_newsom-paper_fashion.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5452993782725894370" /></a>Have a wonderful Friday, everyone!<div><br /></div><div>Love,</div><div><br /></div><div>Flavia</div>Flaviahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00338716935373355027noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-625684205744008243.post-48573026145982886252010-03-22T22:39:00.004-04:002010-03-22T23:54:13.826-04:00Gainesville Fashion Week & Coveted List Fashion Show:<div>Good evening, darlings!</div><div><br /></div><div>I'm exhausted, but in such a fantastic mood because I have fabulous news to tell you! It is regarding the event that I've been planning for a few weeks now. If you live here in Gainesville, then definitely come out tomorrow night, March 23rd, to the<b> Gainesville Fashion Week-Coveted List Fashion Showcase</b>!! The event will be held at the Reitz Union Grand Ballroom from 7-9pm! I can't emphasize how much hard work my team and I have done to put on this event, and we are soo happy that it is finally here! Today we had a really successful "flash-mob" event in the Plaza of the Americas, and tomorrow is the big show. </div><div><br /></div><div>Here's a little info about the event: </div><div><br /></div><div>Our goal was to put together a showcase that all women on UF's campus could relate to. The show consists of outfits that flatter all body types, heights, and skin tones. There will be 25 looks that are spring-inspired and ultra-feminine. The great part is that the event is a "sneak peek" for Gainesville Fashion Week, as the looks were pulled from boutiques and fashion designers that will have their own runway shows during the April GFW events. The best part is, it's free! I really hope that you'll join me tomorrow evening for the event! </div><div><br /></div><div>We will have my personal favorite DJs, Thomas and Ernie, playing bangers throughout the night. There will be a little red-carpet entrance, tons of photographers, and the most chic guys and gals in town present at the event. You can also learn about <a href="http://uf.covetedlist.com/">Coveted List</a>, which is an amazing website that I hope to work with in the future. Looks were provided by <a href="http://www.shopdahlia.com/">Dahlia Boutique</a>, Wolfgang Boutique, Mesh Boutique, and designer <a href="http://bobby-k.com/index.php">BobbyK</a>. </div><div><br /></div><div>This past Saturday, I held the fitting for the event at my apartment. We had soo much fun styling looks for the fashion show and working with our wonderful models. </div><div>Here are some snapshots from the fitting: </div><div><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLvZEmRkf54beqk4SiaG-ywKF4FO4p78UoRBiu6FbmsrkUSIGmllxxq-S0maReCjRSt5ePygYzLGjch8quIbDUeT3J6wzJxd0zGDDv4jyWBv9H0vaVpCTgogTdzphlx1haJO_ArzpABOKg/s1600-h/26068_1250440416954_1107780073_30590099_1023929_n.jpg"><img style="display:block;

I bought <a href="http://www.freepeople.com/shoes-wedges---heels/april-platform-wedged-heel/">these</a> Dolce Vita platforms the other day at Urban Thread, and I'm absolutely smitten with them. I've been dying for a new pair of go-to heels. I love exaggerated wedges, but can never find anything that's not too harsh looking or that isn't covered in studs . When I saw these beauties in my size, I pounced on them. They have the look of a classic pump, but their extended platform gives them a very surreal quality. </div><div><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhOZKD6k2KeWbuRN_20zts2hvWrZnkh3XfSJIIEPFgctgSSWABr7xChi_LybMt7lOGoR9yT93r32RGb1oH0rSv1oem0g9dTRDDoVxfSX5TwiZUzId9D0Bk6S43UiaxZoZSkcpMlj58ArFUn/s1600-h/IMG_3042.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhOZKD6k2KeWbuRN_20zts2hvWrZnkh3XfSJIIEPFgctgSSWABr7xChi_LybMt7lOGoR9yT93r32RGb1oH0rSv1oem0g9dTRDDoVxfSX5TwiZUzId9D0Bk6S43UiaxZoZSkcpMlj58ArFUn/s400/IMG_3042.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5443518208635825378" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjN6YCrbt4GAuYcTuu2EZgCWRIAglez_fnSSbf-EfqhjTV03x59C0Nx21nzq5LjzfP3oNs33PfZLR6wG4Zf7mZHNOHgQ1r38hcR2R05ucyMMVqgt9ZIUBa7DDxiaS_b07sOfUzw4dXfDLI/s1600-h/IMG_3048.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjN6YCrbt4GAuYcTuu2EZgCWRIAglez_fnSSbf-EfqhjTV03x59C0Nx21nzq5LjzfP3oNs33PfZLR6wG4Zf7mZHNOHgQ1r38hcR2R05ucyMMVqgt9ZIUBa7DDxiaS_b07sOfUzw4dXfDLI/s400/IMG_3048.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5443517996063352370" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh053VYfJ8xZyAxCK97m2NMUYuEzjZx_7278R4XwS6d5dIpXpwXEKN0FZEmbeAskcJhO74OnI6FZaxmeAi_Bd5NUFJ5ZsraWGcUhsIsqMuo1TWA_ds69vaVSlXVkbo689OliLxgb4xr0n8L/s1600-h/IMG_3055.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh053VYfJ8xZyAxCK97m2NMUYuEzjZx_7278R4XwS6d5dIpXpwXEKN0FZEmbeAskcJhO74OnI6FZaxmeAi_Bd5NUFJ5ZsraWGcUhsIsqMuo1TWA_ds69vaVSlXVkbo689OliLxgb4xr0n8L/s400/IMG_3055.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5443517798287686930" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbn6P7drj917DME_f15SAX5WBpC2L4ZQ_gtajr7C5nq6sobtNlaYyOzyLItws0t-MopxAznki44GNT9Dmg6xqWXLx0rDFXfFEMIJ480hVj9cO05zLADykPsdMIMioz5_9YmkWqr7Fas2v1/s1600-h/IMG_3064.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbn6P7drj917DME_f15SAX5WBpC2L4ZQ_gtajr7C5nq6sobtNlaYyOzyLItws0t-MopxAznki44GNT9Dmg6xqWXLx0rDFXfFEMIJ480hVj9cO05zLADykPsdMIMioz5_9YmkWqr7Fas2v1/s400/IMG_3064.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5443517544562316818" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5Yupq91OxpaHZA24cNO8HhA0x2f0uFqvFhz2q12LYvk1jK-DvEA3TZHV-qwTrQwDhrGY3NSFsBMEy_7G0cMQPl7_vfFqcgAr39y40mMMQcmy90OBrRlrnniB2TVr23lsyq4m_x5F2LKsq/s1600-h/IMG_3056.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5Yupq91OxpaHZA24cNO8HhA0x2f0uFqvFhz2q12LYvk1jK-DvEA3TZHV-qwTrQwDhrGY3NSFsBMEy_7G0cMQPl7_vfFqcgAr39y40mMMQcmy90OBrRlrnniB2TVr23lsyq4m_x5F2LKsq/s400/IMG_3056.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5443517292169491170" /></a><br /><div>Don't they look exactly like the Yves Saint Laurent Imperiale pumps from the <a href="http://www.style.com/fashionshows/review/F2009RTW-YSLRG">Fall 2009 collection</a>?!</div><div><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2wBN8owioRZVRda-mmhvkSvFx5PHCXQ5icp_Gv8YkTTzPLVoCHr2U2fNuXYbFCzRmi5HNlN5ZvE6rz7gxEC_ss5FZEIRa9Pm8MBVcjWhKn3PctcM5BYBnubvQhVgVygVw67YMl8KJrPe3/s1600-h/01090m.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 267px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2wBN8owioRZVRda-mmhvkSvFx5PHCXQ5icp_Gv8YkTTzPLVoCHr2U2fNuXYbFCzRmi5HNlN5ZvE6rz7gxEC_ss5FZEIRa9Pm8MBVcjWhKn3PctcM5BYBnubvQhVgVygVw67YMl8KJrPe3/s400/01090m.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5443516673346597458" /></a><br /></div><div>I've been wearing them around my apartment all weekend, as the only places I've been going this weekend have been cafes, libraries, roller derbies and funny dance nights.

Unfortunately for the rest of us, they don't sell swagga by the bottle. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Here's a look at David's outfit from the Gainesville Fashion Week Model Callbacks:</div><div><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtKx4btNNa0rSeE5rJ9pYqGgcKremPdx7g-cGNmiEK0AlVZ4r3PKsHAnwHNqF-B332BXf5eFJloga_btnw9wG82D7wy6_pizO1xUnsw2l5Zowk_r3KQ3eosr1-zZWJkPn8vjah-FDhMblT/s1600-h/IMG_3034.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtKx4btNNa0rSeE5rJ9pYqGgcKremPdx7g-cGNmiEK0AlVZ4r3PKsHAnwHNqF-B332BXf5eFJloga_btnw9wG82D7wy6_pizO1xUnsw2l5Zowk_r3KQ3eosr1-zZWJkPn8vjah-FDhMblT/s400/IMG_3034.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5442035309945158082" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWw77hBoRMKepM_4-m_DCKmkrhn1cEhUyRDM3U_0oJ4kjLU_HCy322xm6IwaRwMFWaJOCIFm1oc2OuS0F4XaZnUM1HcOJU2epfNesKWFZV1yadSLhJmTd7yl_58IUDbCbCaN75OADO400I/s1600-h/IMG_3035.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWw77hBoRMKepM_4-m_DCKmkrhn1cEhUyRDM3U_0oJ4kjLU_HCy322xm6IwaRwMFWaJOCIFm1oc2OuS0F4XaZnUM1HcOJU2epfNesKWFZV1yadSLhJmTd7yl_58IUDbCbCaN75OADO400I/s400/IMG_3035.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5442035289291752930" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgNTFeYUTfNgHQeSdP0h89floy1gN2c-OY2Utrpg67AfBowQb4kkvpDs0cRM7b4ZU2F9PRVh8NiacCzfYqu1NpsA9oEznypM6oG7uEvJSIF_6xqLkQhPjFhFuEL1OCNWsWP3GRc6HiBMcPD/s1600-h/IMG_3036.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgNTFeYUTfNgHQeSdP0h89floy1gN2c-OY2Utrpg67AfBowQb4kkvpDs0cRM7b4ZU2F9PRVh8NiacCzfYqu1NpsA9oEznypM6oG7uEvJSIF_6xqLkQhPjFhFuEL1OCNWsWP3GRc6HiBMcPD/s400/IMG_3036.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5442035274014329794" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZo-dOxncJ0eSwl-0Z7aVja7YtA3EFmMeiCcpIEH2XqU3OBjBD-NLkweXAm9XXW3tAm1U8Vc3WuO-bhaeUxZbbDt2RHSAKip3_v6vFiZzXv4Y_mSMvyiwkr1_C4c6TqL5ZJK8X2-Pjhyphenhyphenb2/s1600-h/IMG_3037.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZo-dOxncJ0eSwl-0Z7aVja7YtA3EFmMeiCcpIEH2XqU3OBjBD-NLkweXAm9XXW3tAm1U8Vc3WuO-bhaeUxZbbDt2RHSAKip3_v6vFiZzXv4Y_mSMvyiwkr1_C4c6TqL5ZJK8X2-Pjhyphenhyphenb2/s400/IMG_3037.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5442035261534597874" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">What He's Wearing: Urban Outfitters shirt, jeans, and boots.

I'm constantly calling, texting, <a href="http://twitter.com/the_real_flavs">tweeting</a>, and emailing, but the thrill of putting together this amazing event makes me love my new frantic fashion life. Tonight was our model callback event, and we squeezed 93 models, plus judges, press, spectators and the GFW team into <a href="http://sharablounge.com/">Sharab Lounge</a> for an incredible night of strutting and sass. Im exhausted, but at the same time so excited. Last week revolved around our Modeling Clinic (last Wednesday), Casting Call (all day Sunday), and tonight's Callbacks. What's next: committee meeting Friday and setting up an on-campus fashion show with <a href="http://covetedlist.com/#">UF Coveted List</a> and Retail Society, among other things. Oh yeah...and tons of studying! </div><div><br /></div><div>Here's a little peek at what my life has been like for the past week or so:</div><div><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibnsjaF1zPHNtTvZ-GE_mYM8a2wBHkiAcrV5gIvdhf-7yPcf9KPDH9fIX8bvfgWCJMxToE4On18Wyz7mjuEtGGJ5TIbcRnZDC3Y_87VTkUJC1jvIrBqi-5IQtKjUwA0igRUXnEYKz_4wVK/s1600-h/22643_318040546715_108296691715_4063528_329360_n.jpg"><img style="display:block;

It's really so exciting and flattering to get to talk to you all, and I figured video posting could be a fun and personal way to blog every now and then. I'm sorry I'm not quite as energetic as usual, it's been a long night, but I was determined to do a little video post! I wanted to show you all my new haircut two of my favorite starlets/muses, Audrey Tautou and Louise Brooks.

It was a lovely weekend but all play and NO work has led to a pretty hefty to-do list for me. One of the highlights of my weekend was actually that Leah and I shared our 2-year friendship anniversary on Thursday night! We exchanged gifts and then went to an adorable short-film movie screening with some friends. It was magical.</div><div><br /></div><div>Over winter break my mom surprised me by gifting me a day-long sewing lesson with one of her friends who is a talented seamstress. I learned so much, and have been trying my hardest to put my skills to good use lately. For our anniversary, I made Leah this delicate flower brooch with recycled lace trim that she actually found for me a few months ago. </div><div><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgcJHHGKu2hQ03uVgXrszdbgv-Oj0mV_lsop-Y5RsoO6-L606fWd5kfNxJdP5XITF8lJmtXGVuiZTNXkDoOj-D-9KQ5HweVLhN4Bwic2LB9yAr1W0na7clnRD1dxaVPQqOhLNWxSixKD0B/s1600-h/photo.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgcJHHGKu2hQ03uVgXrszdbgv-Oj0mV_lsop-Y5RsoO6-L606fWd5kfNxJdP5XITF8lJmtXGVuiZTNXkDoOj-D-9KQ5HweVLhN4Bwic2LB9yAr1W0na7clnRD1dxaVPQqOhLNWxSixKD0B/s400/photo.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5438592837462971250" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzX5J0rKfzvLyYZ7WqTiFLLi-JYhdUWrazfucYTkpelxh2ABQlRe_b9n13baiAwnWm3tqiqhFc8xsywL-nGSjwp9jPqz-p1QLD0BSKsc7Dec9TXnBu5q7DwuDyQAyYEddBuDgzzIKruMfL/s1600-h/photo_2.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzX5J0rKfzvLyYZ7WqTiFLLi-JYhdUWrazfucYTkpelxh2ABQlRe_b9n13baiAwnWm3tqiqhFc8xsywL-nGSjwp9jPqz-p1QLD0BSKsc7Dec9TXnBu5q7DwuDyQAyYEddBuDgzzIKruMfL/s400/photo_2.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5438592832965308274" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">It looks beautiful on her ruffly Juicy coat! </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Leah gave me these two BEAUTIFUL vintage collars, and I've been wearing them non-stop.

Ever since I made my two pairs of "<a href="http://tonnishtouch.blogspot.com/2010/01/diy-cuffed-prepster-shorts.html">prepster shorts</a>", I can't stop putting together prep-school inspired outfits, with a twist. I love wearing blouses and my cuffed shorts with fluorescent tights or a sequin cardigan. What I adore about this collection is that it incorporates two of my current fashion obsessions, geek-chic and giant furs.<br /></div><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6z_8mXeo_FRwcN8B7YTyh-vswfjTrbXrWSdCaJW5bglwK1URBaC7jCZJM2E3xOcBNNtAEFZvjTeCMScjrupF0xPf7N4lI2GFRvFwg6FdvKXR1_Vfwflfi42w3tL0LPXEx3zYdbO9IkQvO/s1600-h/09m.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 267px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6z_8mXeo_FRwcN8B7YTyh-vswfjTrbXrWSdCaJW5bglwK1URBaC7jCZJM2E3xOcBNNtAEFZvjTeCMScjrupF0xPf7N4lI2GFRvFwg6FdvKXR1_Vfwflfi42w3tL0LPXEx3zYdbO9IkQvO/s400/09m.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5436099150286506418" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">Today I wanted to put together an outfit inspired by this collection, but with a girly "Flavia" twist.

I've been doing a lot in order to work on gaining more experience in fashion and trying to take on new things. I'm so excited because I was recently hired as the production assistant and model coordinator for the Gainesville Fashion Week 2010 team! Of course my lips are sealed as to the top secret details but I can keep you guys posted on all of the important dates and events to look forward to.<br /><br />Fashion Week should be amazing this season because the production will be bigger and better than ever, and the theme is totally jet-set. The biggest thing that we have coming up right now is the Model Casting Call! You and all of your chic and beautiful friends should go to the casting call on February 21st at the <a href="http://www.neutral7.com/">Neutral 7</a> offices here in Gainesville. Don't be shy, being a model is so much fun and if you're worried that you don't have professional experience strutting your stuff, the GFW team will be hosting a free modeling clinic on February 17th where you can practice your walk, perfect your poses, and socialize with other models and the event team. Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have, but I really encourage you to come out and be a part of such an amazing event for our local community. Plus, we'll get to work together!

I'm sorry for not posting, but I'm finally finished with my first set of mid-terms so there should be a lot going on with The Tonnish Touch now. Although this outfit isn't very exciting, I wanted to post my favorite pair of granny-slacks. They made their debut months ago at a <a href="http://tonnishtouch.blogspot.com/2009/10/night-life.html">party</a>, but I never had the courage to wear them again. The other day I decided to combine them with sheer and nerdy layers, perfectly fit for my long study hours. I discovered that these are the most comfortable pants and now I want to wear them everywhere! I'm on the quest for more of these silly trousers. As you can see by my photos, I'm having trouble dealing with my hair growing out. I just don't know what to do to it next!<br /></div><br />Have a look:<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEje-30pGUXnWz5jfCbAMiuUrXM9zmIcf9MwOqL28v1tGfPJ3UjIabEWhqArBmOgLL8466tEXf6BagkNSezHQsAL09UJxDMOLhfykOBBoKhNPZXCY_kKp3QqzNgm9-cS2blliMkP31zDkpG8/s1600-h/IMG_2783.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEje-30pGUXnWz5jfCbAMiuUrXM9zmIcf9MwOqL28v1tGfPJ3UjIabEWhqArBmOgLL8466tEXf6BagkNSezHQsAL09UJxDMOLhfykOBBoKhNPZXCY_kKp3QqzNgm9-cS2blliMkP31zDkpG8/s400/IMG_2783.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5434627829201475762" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgufl4VADxKVi_d8AL4gWm1LzZS2ebazIIG4DC9nd2z4_-P4U42N7BNoy45Lkl7N2lz1PQIlmYqH8KvgbT-Zm0vbhqvW0XQRi_SsjAM9Jfv6fc_Cb8uuGbvJ2yb8GoOrEJTQzsnPNg2IiPL/s1600-h/IMG_2799.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgufl4VADxKVi_d8AL4gWm1LzZS2ebazIIG4DC9nd2z4_-P4U42N7BNoy45Lkl7N2lz1PQIlmYqH8KvgbT-Zm0vbhqvW0XQRi_SsjAM9Jfv6fc_Cb8uuGbvJ2yb8GoOrEJTQzsnPNg2IiPL/s400/IMG_2799.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5434627820254006882" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJ32HLM3A-zr45_WnSy-XLExMaARbjoGoO3Jil6h8RgtCM4AKLtQaXN6ksZ37fRHiJaofTn9S4fHbFyE8loWbHtVkYU7PtgYbb40T58HXF-AVzN13si0P3AHQBpxvMIrjXCCIYhOaA1kkv/s1600-h/IMG_2804.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJ32HLM3A-zr45_WnSy-XLExMaARbjoGoO3Jil6h8RgtCM4AKLtQaXN6ksZ37fRHiJaofTn9S4fHbFyE8loWbHtVkYU7PtgYbb40T58HXF-AVzN13si0P3AHQBpxvMIrjXCCIYhOaA1kkv/s400/IMG_2804.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5434627495851335250" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center;">What I'm Wearing: Banana Republic cardigan, American Apparel lace bodysuit over an Urban Outfitters bodysuit, vintage trousers, vintage belt and brooch, Urban Outfitters flats.<br /></div><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-a7z_tmrRbqk_GvLja1gWJQYBPEVdIF803tur_L9qWV069x9U7sQ4nh0i-puHq0nsQkHpgrStTgay6-Exi5HFOIemYblxcxpWKP1OXtfnM9q5uLCBeUlh4cujEf0xnFpgVu8AOGa_XJYm/s1600-h/IMG_2816.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-a7z_tmrRbqk_GvLja1gWJQYBPEVdIF803tur_L9qWV069x9U7sQ4nh0i-puHq0nsQkHpgrStTgay6-Exi5HFOIemYblxcxpWKP1OXtfnM9q5uLCBeUlh4cujEf0xnFpgVu8AOGa_XJYm/s400/IMG_2816.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5434626964324435810" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">I also wanted to present my new vintage dress form to you!

I still have to put her on a stand but can't help but brag about having such a wonderful treasure. Right now she's just sporting the pearl collar that Leah gave me for my birthday.

Lady Gaga Bow Hairpiece<div style="text-align: justify;">Hey Everyone! Here's another D.I.Y. that I've been avidly researching and looking forward to posting! There's a little backstory, here goes:</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">I was recently contacted by a fashion enthusiast/journalist named Katie. She messaged me about the possibility of writing a feature story on me, and I absolutely flipped at the opportunity! Once her pitch was approved, I had to think of some ways to show why I love fashion and what I do to embrace it. So, we spent the day going on tonnish adventures, including lattes at Karma Cream, a trip to Beauty Max, an impromptu voyage to the Salvation Army (where I scored two Mad Men-esque tops and she found amazing cream booties), a stop at Loop de Loop, and finally, this D.I.Y. project at my humble abode. What I have for you here is a step by step tutorial on how to make the infamous Lady Gaga hair bow out of some cheap extensions. </div><div><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRPfFjYb3nsME87A38ZwtuVHQahMLXr4QRO1GLZfyAzEKZKuNCu6KdV7JHWwUM9IYvUe0AncrKldbNERqyW320zwdU6pJd-Q_qscrHzc8QaFfugD_6UL0bj0XiOIGgw2NlgwjCPy0oe9U5/s1600-h/lady_gaga_hair_bow_c.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 321px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRPfFjYb3nsME87A38ZwtuVHQahMLXr4QRO1GLZfyAzEKZKuNCu6KdV7JHWwUM9IYvUe0AncrKldbNERqyW320zwdU6pJd-Q_qscrHzc8QaFfugD_6UL0bj0XiOIGgw2NlgwjCPy0oe9U5/s400/lady_gaga_hair_bow_c.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5430076573632313490" /></a><br /><div>What You'll Need:<div><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJZkAYJ9PpChohcYebDXQBsOKu6WG9MUfx0Nugb1AunMq8u1t0aaLHoOiGZBSY42EMBQVi7FMtf_T5xTBYZHG2e08lbey4bMkh9uzSrjmWrKlSh6fgS76rjdaBhA5UcKfkXJghYJbcsgy1/s1600-h/IMG_2728.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJZkAYJ9PpChohcYebDXQBsOKu6WG9MUfx0Nugb1AunMq8u1t0aaLHoOiGZBSY42EMBQVi7FMtf_T5xTBYZHG2e08lbey4bMkh9uzSrjmWrKlSh6fgS76rjdaBhA5UcKfkXJghYJbcsgy1/s400/IMG_2728.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5430076389296233874" /></a><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">1) Long hair extension ($3.99 at Beauty Max)</div><div style="text-align: justify;">2) Straightening iron and damp rag</div><div style="text-align: justify;">3) Hot glue gun</div><div style="text-align: justify;">4) Paper/cardboard surface (for easy cleanup)</div><div style="text-align: justify;">5) Duck-bill clips (.99 at Beauty Max) and bobby pins (.99 at Beauty Max)</div><div style="text-align: justify;">6) Small elastic bands</div><div><br /></div><div>The best part about this project is that the supplies only added up to a budget friendly $6.39! </div><div><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhv2TpAh31aG8MFKYOpK9t1BPxgAFu9EZ4H9qKzNsZzXj2aESlBWTYznqszt32Hoube300gqmOlf-Zb2rxI1g4Pyuzq6G_Ax2wnki7sohzgHe4RdMB1DnRQJNFp_N19yXD2830azMSKpsll/s1600-h/IMG_2734.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhv2TpAh31aG8MFKYOpK9t1BPxgAFu9EZ4H9qKzNsZzXj2aESlBWTYznqszt32Hoube300gqmOlf-Zb2rxI1g4Pyuzq6G_Ax2wnki7sohzgHe4RdMB1DnRQJNFp_N19yXD2830azMSKpsll/s400/IMG_2734.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5430076373542505122" /></a><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">This is the brand of "weave" that I used for my project.

Tie off an end with a small elastic band, and cut off the excess. Now you have the foundation for your bow!</div></div><div><br /></div><div>Step 2: Tying and Melting</div><div><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwV_Xb-05F6Sik9WJ4R0CoERK-QXy12gYeWP3Yp8m3xnQYe8JiqkRp0rX51N7lvu2Ty5ZVuNDHQTisn2NU-j-0uAdMg43UdumTQ8V7ncuCySBYFLzZ9S_TbJlJrloUJz68AEGzQZn-qVG0/s1600-h/IMG_2739.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwV_Xb-05F6Sik9WJ4R0CoERK-QXy12gYeWP3Yp8m3xnQYe8JiqkRp0rX51N7lvu2Ty5ZVuNDHQTisn2NU-j-0uAdMg43UdumTQ8V7ncuCySBYFLzZ9S_TbJlJrloUJz68AEGzQZn-qVG0/s400/IMG_2739.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5430076352256337602" /></a><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">You'll need to tie off the other end of your hair strip, making sure the nub (so to speak) is as short as possible.

Now you're going to take your straightening iron and melt the hair together, over the rag to prevent a fire hazard. This sounds horrifying, and you'll experience some sizzling sounds and smoke, but its all for the sake of your future pseudo up-do. The rag keeps both your straightener and weave safe, and at the end, you can use the bare flat iron to secure. </div></div><div><br /></div><div>Step 3: The Hard Part</div><div><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjS15AE-WdWe2sXKS8TzBwtnKmssA9uzdstXqAhA3pHcQ6AZcjImTxUDjeF8pTQCyWfHKVQ-DM3TWoQ6Pl60Cr9nMoCBrGMovbSPJerF_X-a5SbSXDaKKRgCPRJJgqq-YzFZlDa7VpXmTx-/s1600-h/IMG_2743.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjS15AE-WdWe2sXKS8TzBwtnKmssA9uzdstXqAhA3pHcQ6AZcjImTxUDjeF8pTQCyWfHKVQ-DM3TWoQ6Pl60Cr9nMoCBrGMovbSPJerF_X-a5SbSXDaKKRgCPRJJgqq-YzFZlDa7VpXmTx-/s400/IMG_2743.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5430075025446262482" /></a><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Now that you have a crispy loop, you want to take 2 small elastics and secure the center of what will be your bow. It gets a little tricky to maintain the shape of the bow, but don't get frustrated. I admit, I nearly gave up. If you have a friend help you by holding the bow as you adjust, it's much easier. Next, you'll have to loop a piece of hair around the center in order to finish up the bow.</div><div><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjAos4JCEDUgYpvQM5LmzFXsJ9w_ZgDIWjimYguskpFa87R0rHvsDdgbONX4pwlXIalYWQ5966yu5Q9KvunXEMDmlXzSSranaVUfzjpuoTtm_svZOh6aSFj5anJVwFphBo4lIHgEwZYYy7Z/s1600-h/IMG_2746.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjAos4JCEDUgYpvQM5LmzFXsJ9w_ZgDIWjimYguskpFa87R0rHvsDdgbONX4pwlXIalYWQ5966yu5Q9KvunXEMDmlXzSSranaVUfzjpuoTtm_svZOh6aSFj5anJVwFphBo4lIHgEwZYYy7Z/s400/IMG_2746.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5430075019395396738" /></a><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Get a long piece of your extension (you'll cut of the excess later) and as your buddy holds your bow for you, wrap the hair about 3 times around the center of the bow, and secure with an elastic behind the hairpiece. Bobby pin down a bit of the ponytail behind the bow, and then cut off the excess with scissors, making sure that it doesn't show from the front. </div></div><div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#0000EE;"><br /></span></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0tJJsmuCWMw_7kpgJqqXVxqr_BJdt5JrFWOyRQdcLIPjNrdwnlf__-WuQEd_I8ZiV5iVhxka2GkG6Z_jOo5zN2sVqVB12opRp6kwc7Ed_HkHPJMpAju1PJL4f1WE6UaKU0sgK3pq8yrCx/s1600-h/IMG_2747.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0tJJsmuCWMw_7kpgJqqXVxqr_BJdt5JrFWOyRQdcLIPjNrdwnlf__-WuQEd_I8ZiV5iVhxka2GkG6Z_jOo5zN2sVqVB12opRp6kwc7Ed_HkHPJMpAju1PJL4f1WE6UaKU0sgK3pq8yrCx/s400/IMG_2747.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5430073767896801074" /></a><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">This is what you should end up with!! Cute, right?! You'll probably feel that your bow is a bit disheveled, but use some scissors to cut off stray hairs, and you're finger tips to adjust the shape and it will fall naturally once it's on your head, don't worry! </div></div><div><br /></div><div>Step 4: Attachment and Eternal Happines</div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Now that your bow is pieced together, you want to be able to attach it to your head, don't you? Because I have short hair, I figured using a jumbo duck-bill clip would be the best idea. If you want, you can use a head band or head wrap. Once you choose what best suits your hair, attach it to the bottom of your bow using a hot glue gun. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Congratulations, you now have the most adorable hair accessory imaginable.

Mine had a lower crotch so my first cuff is just a teeny fold, but yours may be an inch long or so. Pin down your first cuff, making sure that the length stays even all around the leg, and that both sides are symmetrical. Once you're done pinning, iron down the crease so that the cuff lays flat. Now, sew the cuff down using a blind-hem technique. When you're all done, iron again so that everything is nice and flat. </div></div><div><br /></div><div>Step 4: Pin, iron and sew your final cuff</div><div><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTMzNqGlPXcSWRNS1V4QdXum-O-7FE7RHz_FWgySbsj0_zYwisxE0KkudmqiXwRSsQpJrHWJqYJjiHo2gWI0DXxfovTZNFQoNo8kEbqKLMHzKTdE5uTe0qI12wlzL0SqxcrQ0uR244zS2d/s1600-h/IMG_2699.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTMzNqGlPXcSWRNS1V4QdXum-O-7FE7RHz_FWgySbsj0_zYwisxE0KkudmqiXwRSsQpJrHWJqYJjiHo2gWI0DXxfovTZNFQoNo8kEbqKLMHzKTdE5uTe0qI12wlzL0SqxcrQ0uR244zS2d/s400/IMG_2699.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5427899989481612946" /></a><div style="text-align: justify;">Now that you have your first cuff sewn and ready, take a look at where you want your final cuff to hit by trying on your shorts. When I tried mine on I figured that an inch long cuff would be perfect. Next, pin down your desired cuff and iron flat. Now, flip your shorts inside out. You'll be sewing your cuff using the blind hem again, but this time from the inside. If you've never sewn using a blind hem technique here is what it looks like:</div></div><div><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZsbkIx7ZTvrjUnfMLCRQYtXVKnudTxNdsal8-JGXd7axEBL617YIFXZBiY_oNEfKD1lOcEGbiyGmQP7Fa-jKl2rtPicKLjadrlfwdz3fyY6eV1UEc92TtpY2bYu4Zzq9jR56WEvxkj7-p/s1600-h/IMG_2705.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZsbkIx7ZTvrjUnfMLCRQYtXVKnudTxNdsal8-JGXd7axEBL617YIFXZBiY_oNEfKD1lOcEGbiyGmQP7Fa-jKl2rtPicKLjadrlfwdz3fyY6eV1UEc92TtpY2bYu4Zzq9jR56WEvxkj7-p/s400/IMG_2705.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5427899985865259026" /></a><div style="text-align: justify;">Its actually really simple (and my favorite way to do quick hand-sewing jobs). All you do is make a tiny stitch(as small as you can possibly make it) from the back of the shorts through to the front of the cuff and back. Then you leave some space (.5"-1") and do it over and over until you're finished. As you can see from my photo, theres no need to be perfect, the whole point is to make sure that you're stitches can't be seen from the front. I suggest looking up blind-hem tutorials on YouTube so that you can get a better idea of how exactly to make this stitch. Trust me, you're going to love it! </div></div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Once you're done sewing up your cuffs, remove the pins and iron, iron iron! You want your shorts to look sophisticated and pressed, don't you! No one will believe that you made these yourself! </div><div><br /></div><div>Step 5: Try on your new favorite shorts!</div><div><br /></div><div>Here is a look at how my new shorts turned out.
