BLOG FOCUS: StyleScrapbook


STYLESCRAPBOOK


She's maybe the most famous and succesful blogger in Holland, but she's not Dutch - it's the Mexican Andy Torres from StyleScrapbook.
She's tall, she's elegant and her style is everything - from maxiskirts, to knits, to college jackets, to graphic prints, to sheer, you name it, she wears it (with style)!
She's been blogging from 2007, has been named Mango It-girl, designed a camera bag for Kipling and has won the ELLE 'Best Fashion Blog of the year' in 2011. She's been the first blog I followed and is part of my everyday-must-check-blogs ;) 

How about that!

The Arm Party concept

 Friendship bracelets, chains, cuffs, charm-bracelets, leather bracelets, etc, etc..

The Arm Party (in my opion, made huge by Leandra Medine from The Man Repeller blog) is now more hot than ever. There is this thing called winter coming up, so probably our arms will be covered in knits, but it will still be hot to wear your Arm Party loud and proud.

There are a lot of bracelets involved in an arm party and luckily a lot of ways to create one yourself. Friendship bracelets, by far the most easy and personalize-able, tutorials can be found all over the internet and YouTube. Check out these creative users on YouTube for some tutorials to make your own (friendship) bracelet here, here and here!

As for the arm parties going around in blog-world, check them out below..
