Bachelor Pad is soooo good.

Yes, I'm obsessed with the Bachelor Pad (2?) on ABC.  I haven't seen the first Bachelor Pad or any other Bachelor/Bachelorette shows except the most recent one with Ashley Hebert.  I found out that a few cast members from that show were going to be on Bachelor Pad so I decided to watch it. Who knew I would get hooked. 

First off, when I first saw Ames on Bachelorette, I thought his forehead was the biggest thing ever!  He seemed doofy looking to me, and I couldn't understand why he had so many fans!  After watching the episode of him leaving the Bachelor Pad for a girl that got voted off, my impression of him has changed for the better. 

Second, Blake is such a man-whore! He reminds me of a shark, but I find him extremely intriguing.  I would fall for him too.  Melissa definitely had to leave the show.  She was crazy!  I almost felt bad for her at the end.

Third, Holly, I can totally relate to her.  Watching her and Michael is like watching my life.  I'm curious to know what happens to their relationship.  Although I feel for Michael and feel all girly and gooey inside when he tells Holly how beautiful he thinks she is, I secretly hope Holly and Blake would be together.  I know, bad bad bad!

Versace silk scarf

My new Versace silk scarf!  Please ignore the crease lines from the packaging.  The colors are so vibrant, I love it.  The camera fades it out but in person the reddish and purple part is much brighter. It just pops!  Everything I've been posting lately is black, so here's something different. 

DIY: Painting soles red

As you know from previous entries, I do not fit the lovely Christian Louboutin pumps. The size 5 was too big and size 4.5 was too small.

I didn't want to give up on the red soles just yet, so I decided to paint the soles of my grey suede Vaneli pumps red.  I know it is frowned upon to do this in the fashion community but what can a girl do if the originals do not fit well!?

I purchased red paint from Save Your Sole and with a disposable brush, I carefully painted away! I am meticulous and pretty good at artsy projects, so I did not use any tape to cover the suede part of the shoes.  It was actually pretty simple.  I painted 1-2 coats and let it dry overnight.  The paint dried quickly (within minutes) but I just wanted to be on the safe side.  Then I finished it off by putting clear Sole Stopperz.  Not too bad, right?

The enamel paint is water based according to their website, so I wonder what would happen if I walk out in the rain or step in a wet spot.  (I wouldn't wear suede out in a rain but you never know what could happen!)  I sent them an email asking about that but they have not responded to me as of now. 

Rocker Chic Shoes

 

My style constantly changes.  A few months ago it was all about looking more sophisticated and career-like with blazers and bow tie blouses.  I liked the elegant old lady fashion with the tweed coat. 

Now I am all about rocker chic.

Show me the studs, fur, and leather!
