Missing College Student – Devon Minor

I normally like to blog about fashion and dating and charities, but this cause seemed more than worthy and time is of the essence.

Devon Minor is an 18 year old freshman at Geneva College, in Beaver Falls, right outside of Pittsburgh. He was last seen late last Wednesday or early Thursday morning, January 19 & 20. His family came in from the east side of the state and filed a missing persons report on Saturday.

Anyone with information should contact Beaver Falls Police Department at 724-846-7000 or Geneva College security at 724-846-9632. There is a facebook group dedicated to searching and praying for Devon’s safe return, and the Geneva College website has released this statement regarding his disappearance.

I hope you will all join me in praying for Devon, his family, and his friends.

This search would not have started as soon as it did has his roommates not taken notice to the fact that Devon left his keys and cell phone behind. If you have roommates, make sure you are looking out for one another. Granting privacy is one thing, but always have one another’s backs, and keep an eye out for unusual activity. It could be a sign that something has happened to them, or that they are battling something you are not aware of.

We are praying for you Devon. Please return to your friends and family safely.

Cheers.

There’s a lovely RING to it…

Hydra Ring - Vivid Green - Swarovski Crystal Sterling Silver MADE TO ORDER

What girl doesn’t love getting a manicure before a big night out? When holding your cocktail at whatever party or event you are attending, having freshly manicured nails can really put the finishing touch on a look. Your hands are viewable to everyone at the party, whether you realize it or not. You carry your drink as you dance with your hands. You wave hello to old friends, and shake hands with new friends. You flirt with the cute bartender by touching his arm after his funny joke. (OK … maybe that’s just me…but his accent is SO hot!) No matter who you are, you are using your hands when you go out.

All the more reason to dress them up! Anyone can get a manicure, but you need something unique and fabulous to set your baby soft hands apart. That is when you turn to Etsy for some bling.

A cocktail ring is the perfect way to draw more attention to that fabulous manicure, and put your outfit over the top.Whether you like a simple, gray pearl, or a flashy giant gem, there is something for everyone. I always feel a little more confident and poised when I am wearing a fabulous, chunky ring on my hand when I leave the house. Even the drive to where ever I am headed seems sexier when I look over the steering wheel at my bejeweled ring finger!

Which of these rings is your favorite?

Cheers.

Dear Rashard Mendenhall (you so fine.)

I saw you in church on Sunday morning, just hours before the AFC Championship game where you helped earn the win that will take the Steelers to their 8th Superbowl. I was the brunette with the fabulous black, ruffled shirt dress, gray tweed pumps, and red lipstick, drooling over you as you entered the sanctuary.

Rashard Mendenhall

I would like to that this opportunity to invite you to come back to our church again, where I will be more than happy to greet you with a holy kiss and share a Bible with you during the service.

You are a total babe. Marry me.

Thank you, Jesus, for your full, pouty lips.

Sincerely,

Miss B

Cheers

DIY Circle Scarf

Anyone who knows me is fully aware of my obsession with scarves. I love them for all seasons. Light, gauzy scarves for spring and summer. Thick warm scarves for winter, checked scarves to edge up an outfit. And of course, circle scarves in all weights and sizes. I love circle scarves. I think they are a great way to finish a look, and are easy for anyone to wear.

Recently, there have been a ton of variations on the circle scarf. Some are long and think. Others have strands of all lengths. Others even have braids or flowers added to them for some extra flair.


The only thing I hate about buying these scarves, is that many of the more unique ones cost quite a bit for a basic piece. I may only wear a particular scarf with one or two outfits. Spending a great deal on one scarf can seem silly at times. But I love my accessories! What’s a girl to do?

Your answer is the Do It Yourself Circle Scarf!

I came across a few scarves that I fell in love with and thought I might be able to tackle making them on my own. I found this helpful video on YouTube and will be tackling this project in the weeks to come!

 

 

I want to use this method to make a few variations of this scarf to create some of the other scarves I have posted today. I am so excited for my new scarves!

Will you be making any of these fun scarves? Do you have any fun DIY projects to share?

Cheers.
