DIY To Try: Rose Salt Body Scrub

Body scrubs have long been a favorite of mine so the prospect of infusing roses (one of my favorite flowers) into bath time has quite an appeal to it. The smell of roses, the aftermath of new, smooth skin and pure relaxation...what's not to love about recreating this rose salt body scrub for your own?



RECIPE
* Fine sea salt
* Coarse sea salt [Himalayan] (optional*)
* Rose essential oil
* Jojoba oil (can be substituted with coconut oil or any other oil of your choice*)
* Glass (or plastic*) jar/bottle 
* Clear inkjet labels (full sheet) + body scrub labels | Download

Mix together the fine and coarse sea salt (if you like pink as I do, Himalayan salt gives off a pink color) with the jojoba oil (many substitutes can be used, I personally like coconut oil) and add drops of the rose oil to your desired scent. You want a consistency that’s the perfect middle between wet and dry – not too oily, not too crumbly. Downloadable labels (two sizes) are provided if you'd like to label your jar.

Style Musings | Street Style: A Hint of Spring

Though here in southern California there's never a shortness of sun, it's still possible for one, such as myself, to be ever so anxious for the arrival of Spring, where soft dresses, an abundance of floral print and embellishments, and pastel is more than appropriate for days walking around downtown. While craving for the sign of a new season, this mix of Valentino Rockstud Slingback Sandals in a neon yellow, along with the prettiest full length dress covered in flowers, will be hanging on the inspiration wall until the time is just right.

Inspired Style: Feathers et Blanc

When is there not a good time to don feathers? Be it a skirt, the main show on your best day ever or while lounging à la boudoir, feathers are always, always perfect.

Visual Vignette | Holiday: Serendipity Via Pink

Have had the color pink in the back of my mind for weeks now, (secretly planning for Valentine's Day) only to have pink, pink and pink pop up everywhere I look and go!





 Just for you, without making the effort to search for it, just like I've stumbled upon it through serendipity, here are a few pink things to inspire you for today, tomorrow, for Valentine's Day and any other occasions requiring pink this year!

January - a time known for new years and new beginnings and a time to starting making amends with bad habits and shedding light onto new, good and excitable ones. And yet, among all the day dreaming and wishful thinking, there are serious conversations to be had and tasks to run here and there before the month ends, for 2014 seems like the year to truly convert dreams into reality and goals into accomplishments.



Talks of certain creative ventures grow and grow and these days, dinners are planned at a moment's notice, with the intention of throwing only ideas on the dinner table, then it's off to the next outing or shop to stop by.

Neutrals, like camel and grey with long menswear coats and sweaters, paired with sneakers and loafers (then heels, naturally, as the sun sets) have been top picks from the closet as of late. And whatever it is that you plan to pursue this year, whether it be travels to a land far from where you call home, or finally turning your passion into your lifetime commitment, don't forget to keep cozy and comfortable as you move from spot to the next.

Currently Wearing: Sequins & Sweaters

Have been making plans to wear sequin skirts well beyond New Year's Eve - for an offbeat-ness with chambray button ups, plain grey t-shirts for the most casual of days and for morning and midnight chills, fluffy sweaters.
