A friend and I run a small girls studio in South Akron on Wednesday nights. For one of the classes we made salt and sugar scrubs. It was a hit! The girls loved experimenting with different ingredients and were excited about how soft their hand were after using it.
Well...I think I'm obsessed with making my own now. It's natural and so easy to make. The ingredients I used for this scrub are: Organic Sunflower Oil, Himalayan Pink Salt, Lemon Zest and Rosemary. And so you know, I'm one of those people that don't follow recipes / directions so I added the different elements to my own taste. If you accidentally add too much oil, just add more salt...no big deal.
Let me know what you think of this scrub! I'll be posting a sugar one soon as well.

What an inspiration! Nathalie Lete is an artist from Paris, she mixes and plays with all sorts of mediums, from illustration and ceramics to textile and paintings. Her work might be very familiar to you...She has designed lines for Anthropologie, including the 2 pillows pictured. I think my favorite part of her work are the textiles. I love the experimentation with texture and extreme use of color. Check out her work on her site, www.nathalie-lete.com

Hey new red hair! Time to fully transition to fall and what better way then to switch up the hair color? I'm having so much fun pairing it's brightness with different colors of clothing. The pattern of this dress from ASOS is fabulous, not a big fan of the swing fit but hey, I gave it a fair shot. My glasses are of course from Bonlook, the La Marquise. All 4 pairs of my glasses are from Bonlook. Great prices and high style. The metallic pink pumps are from NastyGal. They have their new, very own shoe line, Shoe Cult. I grabbed them during a flash sale for only $25! Last but not least, the necklace is from my line (AC Design)...get it on Etsy or on my site!

WANTED ASAP! The 90's slipdress is so simple, so perfect. This minimalist style is back hardcore...and I'm trying very hard to get into it. I always like to go with very bold, highly unique pieces with lots of detail so 90's minimalism will be quite a challenge for me. Yet at the same time, I'm realizing simplicity is very bold and unique as well. Check out these lovely dresses here:  1  ///  2  ///  3  ///  4  ///  5

Had a WILDLY AWESOME time getting the lookbook shot for my fall line on Sunday. It was great to see everything come together, jewelry, outfits, location and then seeing these final shots. Lots of work has went in to the creative process for the jewelry itself AND for the direction of this shoot.
I love to create jewelry that is able to be layered and paired with one another. There are two separate necklaces styled in each photo...Wear it simple or create a killer statement necklace.
Also, I'm in the process of changing the company name so stay tuned! You can shop all these pieces on the AC Design site
