It’s true I’m all about the shoes…
Okay, and maybe the booze too. Well, I will be in December at least for now I’m going to vicariously drink through you.
I talked about feathers on Monday for my Dior Dictionary Word and wanted to keep it going because of my deep love for feathers. The runways have been completely taken over by feathers on feet and I am totally here for this fall trend! But from Valentino to Koché these pieces can come with a hefty price tag. So today, I’m sharing my fun and chic DIY to get on board my favorite fall trend for a very minimal cash.
I was just about to get rid of these shoes when I decided to give them another life. Here is what you need to fancy up your feet:
A pair of shoes (they don’t have to be a heel)
Four packs of feathers (mine from Hobby Lobby)
Velcro
A glue gun
1. Glue two of the four feather pieces together so that you have two altogether.
2. Decide where you like the feathers best and how they’ll fall and look.
3. Put together the small Velcro pieces.
4. Glue to the inside of the shoe.
5. Strut your stuff!
On to my drink recipe of the week! Guys, I’m in love with this one. My version at least. Very jealous of you who get to drink the non mocktail version. However, one of my favorite combinations is lime and strawberry and this drink has all the flavor!
What you need:
Here is a link for some great ice molds!
Fancy Cube:
Fill mold with blueberries, strawberries, lemon and lime peel.
Strawberry Simple Syrup Recipe:
3 tbsp finely chopped strawberry, water, stevia
This recipe is all about the syrup so don’t skip this step. Throw all three equal parts into a small saucepan and simmer for about five minutes. Strain into glass. Add in lime juice, vodka, Cointreau, top with your favorite Rosé, add fancy cube and lime. For the mocktail version just skip the booze and use Strawberry Perrier instead of the Rosé.
I hope everyone has a fantastic weekend full of fantastic fashion and delicious drinks!
