Elizabeth Taylor inspired clutch

I didnt feel like spending money on costumes this year. I have everything to be Elizabeth
Taylor, green dress, a wig, fur scarf ...etc so why not. I made this very inexpensive clutch to go with the out fit if people asked I would say im her...Instructions on how I made this clutch:
 
                                                       Step 1 found collage image on google, and printed it
Step 2 Laminate it
                       Step 3 folded to desired position
             Step 4 stapled plastic ends
                                  Step 5 Glued on rhinestones to the back

Rent the Runway



 So I celebrated another bday. I wanted a special dress for the day.This dress was beyond gorgeous!
It's from www.Renttherunway.com
The way it works is you pick  days you want to rent, 4 or 8 days. It cost more to keep for 8..
The dresses are priced differently, you know depending how much they retail for. There are real famous high end designers on there site too. I didnt pick the dress just because it was "designer" its really something special. It retails for $525 its the Catherine Malandrino Modern Queen Elizabeth Dress. I rented the dress for about $40...rounding up. They even send a second size for free!
The fit was perfect, it felt tailored to me. The fabric was amazing @ 100% silk. It was light and refeshing. I felt like a celebrity ...and unique at the same time. I knew no one would be wearing this out ha. Something cool I got to keep was the black garmet bag teehe..
Also they include a shipping package to ship it back with postage paid. Amazing exprience! I plan to rent from them again, they offer discount sometimes.I'll be on the look out for those. Since it was my first purchase, I had gotten a discount. In case your wondering how the dresses will look on you they have real girls of different sizes, bodies..etc. I'm 5ft and a very petite woman. On there site you can see reviews and pictures of these girls. For any more infomation or questions please refer to there website

Thank you for reading ...just had to share this with you all!
Till another time..I'll be seeing ya.
