Indie Pastels from Boho :)

Indie styles mixed with Vintage pastels.  What could be better?  Lately I'm seeing a lot of pastels, well, everywhere, and I think that although they have more of a vintage feel to them, they can definitely become a staple piece for a bohemian girl's wardrobe.  Here are a few examples I'm loving right now :)




















Blythe Blouse in Silk (Shallow Sea)
$98.00
J. Crew


















Chambray Clambake Skirt (Seaport Blue)
$55.00
J. Crew















Smocked Blouson Top (n/a)
$19.80
Forever 21


These are just a few of the pastel staples I'm eyeing right now.  hope you guys love as much as I do!

DIY Coconut and Rose Body Scrub




  Hi everyone! I promised you all a DIY ("do it yourself") a little while ago, and I love this particular one, via The Beauty Department. This is a really fun Spring/Summer time scrub, giving you a chance to pamper yourself, in a way that's totally unique. This jar of goodness consists of coconut oil, rose petals, raw cane sugar, and almond oil. All things sweet and lovely.



Here are a few directions on making your own (refer to The Beauty Department for further directions) ...

1.    Use a small mason jar or any clear jar with a lid. 
2.   Start by putting a large scoop of coconut oil in the bottom of the jar.
3.   Next, pluck your rose petals and put them into the jar on top of the coconut oil.
4.  Add your raw sugar.
5.  Add your almond (or jojoba oil) on top of the sugar.
6.  Wait a minute for your oil to seep down to the flower petals and then top it off with a little more almond (or jojoba oil). 


I haven't gotten around to making my own, but I can't wait!  xx Vintage
