For a long time I have been addicted to Pinterest! And recently I have taken on plenty of trendy looks I've found on Pinterest and my sister told me I look like I've "walked out of Pinterest." I then thought, there could be plenty of other lovely ladies who may want the straight-out-of-Pinterest look but don't exactly know how. So, I have created a very simple step by step guide to get the whimsical Pinterest look. Prepare yourself for plentiful wolf whistles and to be the envy of every woman you pass! Let's Begin!
Step One: The Base.
Pinterest is full of classy outfits and expensive pieces but really ladies, who needs that? Accessories are where it's at in the Pinter-sphere, so begin with a classic base of jeans (or denim shorts) and a black tee.
Step Two: The Nails
A good start is to know which kind of nails we're talking about. If you were thinking of the sharp silver things you hammer into walls, you may need to spend some more time on Pinterest. And if you were thinking something a little naughtier, you may need to spend less time in the humour section. We're talking fingernails, and whether you have ghetto fabulous stiletto nails or chopped up nubs, you can make these babies look fabulous with the help of the lovely Pinterest! Find a style you love and make it work! I personally chose the ring-finger-painted-a-different-colour look.
Unacceptable Styles:
-French
-Chunky flowers that scream "I don't pick my nose!" Trust me, I believe you
-The same colour on every nail
Step Three: Arm Candy
The most delicious trend on Pinterest! For those who are not aware of what arm candy is, it's the stacking of watches and bracelets. This trend is normally begun with a Michael Kors watch but ain't nobody got money for that so just do what you please. I say the bigger the better and the more the merrier! Take advantage of this to show off every aspect of your style and shove it all on!
Step Four: Keeping your Edge
Every time I wear studs or spikes I can't get out of my house without someone mentioning how wonderfully edgy I look amongst all my Pinterst-y sweetness. You may choose to wear a Pinterest approved tattoo, but that's not really my thing so today I've chosen to keep my edge with another popular pin and rock my sick knuckle rings. Awe yeah.
Step Five: Mustaches
I have loved mustaches since I was a mere child and try to embrace the fact every day that it's currently acceptable for a lady to adorn men's facial hair.
ALMOST THERE!
Step Six: Chevron
It's no secret that chevron is the almighty, cherished symbol of Pinterest! Don't you dare to even try to call yourself a Pinterest girl if you don't own a single piece with this glorious pattern! And if I hear any of you call it "zig zag" I will find you!
So go find your chevron and put it on your body!
At this point, I would head on over to a good friend of the Pinterest girl called Instagram! And post a little something on your efforts.
Finally... Step Seven: The Hair
On Pinterest there are plenty of hairstyles to choose but I believe you either go big or go home! So personally I stay away from the generic yet ever popular side braid. However if you can do some sweet, intricate braids or a hefty fishtail you go for it!
So I opted for my favourite Pinterest hairdo..... THE BOW BUN!
CONGRATULATIONS!
You have successfully completed the step by step guide to looking like you walked out of Pinterest! And since we're the sweet, charming ladies we claim to be, I must say...

Summer Baby Sower
I'm getting my very first cousin this year and last weekend was the baby shower. I know, it's surprising that after 17 years of being only grandchildren with my 25 year old sister I'm acquiring my very first cousin. It was important for me to make a good impression seeing I had never formally met the mother and her current children.
This outfit is pretty special. It contains my very first romper! I ordered if from Forever 21 about a week ago and I was so excited that it fit! I have grown some very long legs and haven't been able to fit into a romper until now!
This Lip Gloss is so shimmery! I wear it most often without lipstick because it stands out so well on its own.
