Deadly Fashion Sin

The seven deadliest fashion sins:
No. 7 – Self-Denial

It’s false humility to think that it’s vain to focus on yourself and your clothing needs. Self-denial won’t get you to Heaven. Think about it. Is it “too showy” for a rose bush to produce beautiful roses? Is it self-indulgent for the sun to come up every day and glow so brightly for all to enjoy? Is it vain for you to look like your beautiful self? NO! The whole world benefits from you caring for yourself. Don’t deny yourself the pleasure of looking and feeling your best.

All Tied Up

RIBBONS EVERYWHERE!

From hair to presents, ribbon can make anything look pretty and come alive. I always buy ribbon! ALWAYS! I can be in the most unsuspecting places. Like the one spot at Target, where I snagged my sassy valentine ribbons! Or the Dollar Tree where I scored these cutesy gold wired ones for HALF OFF! AND my absolute fave, THE THRIFT, where I always manage to find a BIG BAG of satiny, grosgrain and sheer surprise!

So tie extra ribbons to your birthday gifts, your ballet flats, your Valentine's Day bear, your purse handle, personalize your pens and scissors and lunchbags and luggage. Give a little twist to your flower pots and candles or even your wrist!

That's right make beaded ribbon bracelets for you and all your friends! All you need is beads, ribbon and scissors! VOILA!

I LOVE RIBBON!
