2013 Prom - What's HOT

I wish I was going to this year! The dresses definitely set a "Sweet and Sassy"!

What's hot this prom?

Bright vibrant colors, and also so soft whispering colors, whites and nudes. Sparkling sequin, stunning bead work, shimmery embellishments and jewels! From magical ombre tulles to fun printed dresses such as florals and animal prints. Even feather dresses are hot this year!

Flirtatious cutout and illusion dresses, dramatically high slits and sexy one shoulder to incredibly dazzling long short dresses, some of which are rompers. I even saw a few jumpers! Can you believe it? Both short and long dresses are hot, but the hottest of hot this year are high low dresses. Hanky hems, corkscrew and ruffles... So pretty and playful.

I don't know how anyone can pick only "one" dress this prom, there are so many wonderful ones to pick from. I tried to pick out a few to show off, but I couldn't! It was impossible for me. There are just so many I love. So instead I decided to give some URLs to a few websites, the first one being my most favorite (and the second being my second favorite!).

Hair Scrunchies! Handmade! Crocheted!

Yesterday I added some handmade hair scrunchies for order on my facebook page. I haven't added them to my Etsy Shoppe but they can still be ordered and purchased from my facebook page. I crocheted them with soft yarn in bright vibrant colors. I used super stretchy elastic unlike the ones in the stores. 

And here is one close up:

I can make them in in solid colors too without the white trim,  or I can make them all white. If you are interested in ordering please contact me at: trinkedoutbycarla@gmail.com with how many you would like, in what colors and your paypal address. Please give me a day or so to make them ... depending on how many you buy. No matter how many it'll still be only $4 shipping/handling.

Etsy Shop

I started adding things to my Etsy Shop finally, but before I add them there I add them to Trinked Out on Facebook first:

Blonde to Burgundy - Update

Wow, It's been so long since I updated. I'm very sorry for that. Life happened. Long story short -- We moved ... from California to Ohio. It took me a few months to settle in. But now I am back n noticed I never updated on the blonde to burgundy post... So here it is :P

While still in California I asked a good friend of mine to dye my hair (whom I so miss dearly) ... I had no idea how to do it since I never had it done before. After it was done it turned out to be a pretty peachy pink color.

But sadly it didn't stay :( It washed out pretty quick

I was so upset that it didn't last ... I asked around to see what others used to dye theirs ... So I picked the most talked about and dyed it again ... And it turned out so so dark but I loved the color too!

 

It faded so bad bad ... and I was forever touching up the roots. I never knew how fast my hair grew! 

After a month or so I decided to cut my hair to my shoulders. Honestly I hated it!! I will NEVER cut my hair short again :( Anyways so I decided to dye it again after deciding I wouldn't .. 

 

Y U K !

My hair is growing out some n I haven't dyed it since. It's just too much up keep ... I was touching it up every other week. So sad ... I loved LOVEDDDDDD my burgundy hair. 

This is me now

 

And this was me with blonde hair ... I kinda miss it

 

P.S. My daughter had to dye hers too ....

 

 

She got her hair cut short too ...

 

Now hers has grown out a bit too

PS I made that headband ... But that's another blog post LOL

And here was her hair before we dyed it ....

 

I miss her blonde hair tons :(

Blonde to Burgundy!

This evening a friend will be dying my hair. I'm a lil scared as I have never had my hair dyed before. So this is a HUGE thing for me ... I'm blonde now and will be dying it burgundy. I hope it will look ok and I hope I'll like it! I'll post a picture of it within a few days .. only if I like it though .. LOL ;)

Handmade Ribbon Necklaces

I seen some really pretty scrabble tiles that I loved. Everytime I seen them they were on bail chains. Most of them are way too pretty for bail chains in my opinion. So I thought I would try my hand at making ribbon necklaces for them. They look easy, but I found I had to have alot of patience for them lol

Here are the ones I made. I love the how they turned out. :)

This tile was bigger than the others I used .. So I added a few beads to it. It would look pretty with a v neckline... And! red lipstick ;)

This is my favorite one out of them all. I love "love" and anything with hearts on it. Plus it is the prefect blue color to wear with blue jeans!

This on is really pretty. It could be worn with green, cream, orange or brown.

These two have sold, but I still wanted to show them off.

These could be used for casual outfits or dressy ones :)
