My Sweet Weekend

Hey Ladies,

  I had a pretty relaxing weekend. Saturday Morning was spent at the gym then me and the Hubs took a day trip to NY, did a little shopping then headed out to Serendipity for some infamous frozen hot chocolate and an upside down pineapple sundae. Diet FAIL, i know but doesn't it look yummy? Have you guys ever been to Serendipity 3? Sunday I spent the day with my mom running some errands and watching Lifetime (p.s. I'm addicted to the Client List.. don't judge me) lol.The weather was so beautiful this weekend so any excuse to get out of the house was fine with me.Oh yeah, everyone meet Zoe my Mini Schnauzer. How was your weekend?

My Saturday

Hola Luvies,

Yesterday me n the Hubbs went to a Yankee's game. It was fun although I'm not much of a baseball fan (I'm more of a football type of gal) & they lost lol BAD! Later on that night we went to a clothing launch party to go show some support for the brand create at the Takeover store in Jersey City, NJ. I posted some pix to share with you guys. Check out how Fab my BF's kicks are, LOVE them! How was your Saturday?

DIY distressed military vest

 DIY distressed Military vest:

This vest is actually pretty old, i purchased it at Charlotte Russe for about $5 (on clearance) a couple of years ago. I never actually wore it though so i decided this could be a great DIY project. About a month ago i distressed it with a scissor and some sandpaper but i wasn't quite satisfied with the results, it needed more flavor. So Sunday while walking through the Village in NY the Hunnie & I stopped by this military store and picked up some patches for only a BUCK, yup i said it a BUCK! I'm really feeling the outcome, what do you girls think?

Things needed:

1. Military vest/ jean jacket/ army jacket w/cut off sleeves
2. Patches (I've also seen them on eBay)
3. Scissors
4. Iron
5. No sew hemming tape (Joann's, Michael's, craft store etc.)
6. Studs (purchased on eBay) 

Steps: 

• The first step you would need to do is play around with the patches and the stones to see exactly where you would like them. Once you get that out of the way it's time to get to work =] .
• start cutting the no sew hemming tape to fit the size of the patches, place the patches where you originally wanted it and flip the vest inside out; being that the fabric of the patch is a Lil too thick and we need the hemming tape to get as hot as possible it's best to do it this way.
• Start ironing until the patch is completely attached to the vest (note: if you think that this bad boy is going to be in the wash a lot i advise for you to also add some fabric glue in the middle of each patch before ironing the hemming tape).
• Got the patches right where you want them? perfect! Now it's time for the studs (my favorite part <3). Put them fancy things wherever you'd like & VOILA!
