DIY | Pearl Pins

Some most days I haven't got the time to fuss with my hair so as much as I'd wanna rock the freshly-rolled-out-of-bedhead look, I don't think I could pull it off without looking like a frazzled zombie. I have yet to perfect the "messy bun" look since I have naturally thin hair, so I just throw it up in a normal bun dressed up with few pearl-topped bobby pins. These are fantastically simple (and cheap!) to make but makes a bun look so elegant. If these look familiar to you, I had made my friend Debbie a set of these for Day 1 of my DIY Advent Calendar!

DIY | Simple Pearl Studs

It'll be a while before I can afford a pair of real pearls; I'd be too nervous about losing them! Perfect paired with an updo and pumps, these pearl studs will be an elegant, timeless, and classy addition to any wardrobe. Best part: you won't cry (too much) if you ever lose one!
