Floral Crown Floral Dress

on a whim Saturday after brunch with my bff at Peels I headed into Forever 21. BTW...Peels has the best shrimp and grits I've ever tasted in my life and I am somewhat of a shrimp and grits connoisseur. Not to mention Johnny Depp walked by while we were waiting for our table. Yes he is as gorgeous in person as he is on TV. Yum. But back to Forever 21...I needed a good pair of denim shorts and knew they'd have some for less than $20. I got the shorts and on the way to the counter scooped up this dress too that I knew would be perfect for a lazy Memorial Day of walking around and eating.

i'm really trying to stock up on more easy breezy dresses like this. its nice to just have something to throw on and go. now im going in search of a very delicious cheeseburger and perhaps a hotdog too. i also would like a tall cup of lemonade and perhaps some baked beans. lol. I love food.
everyone in the states have a rocking memorial day!

flower crown

if you follow me on instagram (@monroesteele) you may have seen me in the process of making my very first flower crown. after seeing them on one of my favorite bloggers Nicole of Gary Pepper Vintage i've wanted to rock one! so i went to my local Michaels and got all the necessary materials to make one. it was also an incentive to make one being that i am participating in the Nokia Lumia and Leivankash Jewelry fashion challenge. the challenge is to use the Nokia Lumia 900 to create a mood board based on one of the Leivankash Jewelry collections. My favorite of the collections is Flora! thus i got the inspiration to make this flower crown and to do sort of a beauty shoot. its my first of this nature and it was super fun!
Dress: Vintage from Vintage Thrift | Lipstain: Stila Fiery
Eye Shadow: Maybelline EyeStudio
 
i love the way the crown turned out...even though i underestimated how many flowers i would need lol. i plan to try to make one using real flowers soon! i've been tinkering with shadows and contrast on these photos. it almost makes me look like im an angel...lol.
have you ever made a flower crown?
