Hi friends, tomorrow I’m going to be a guest on KATU’s Afternoon Live show again!
Back in February I shared a project for making your own DIY Gemstone-Topped Jewelry Boxes (for Valentine’s Day, pretty home decor, or any other special occasion!).
Tomorrow I’ll be sharing some affordable ways to creating a sparkling, crystal-inspired holiday table (for New Year’s Eve or other holidays)- this time with a number of great DIY projects that I hope we’ll have time for! Here’s a sneak preview of some of the projects I’ll be sharing (or try to, if time allows):
DIY Shooting Star Holiday Party Hats
DIY Sparkling Holiday Mocktail
DIY Sparkling Holiday Table Decor on the Cheap
If you’re in Oregon you can watch it on Channel 2 (or 16, depending on your cable provider). If you aren’t in Oregon or don’t have cable you can catch it live here:
Watch on Thursday, December 28 from 3PM-4PM PST for my 5-minute segment and see how to make your own chic sparkling holiday table! (Tune in at around 3:45PM PST or so for my segment)

Hi Chic Steals readers! My name is Amia Serrano and I’m so eager to share my great finds for you. Enjoy!
Many designer looks walk down the runway, leaving audience members and online viewers in awe, but these are already known to have a hefty price tag attached.
As a fashion stylist I often work to re-create designer-style looks, but on a real-world budget. Today I’m here to show you how to style a designer-inspired look from Alice + Olivia’s S/S 2013 Collection without breaking the bank. It mixes pops of bright color and on-trend florals: the perfect match for a Spring-meets-Summer ensemble.
Here are some affordable yet chic pieces to re-create the Alice + Olivia look for a fraction of the cost:
Rhinestone Cluster Stud Earrings – No need to over accessorize, so keep it subtle with these everyday studs.
Merona Women’s Trench Coat – A colored trench is a perfect way to add a pop of color to any look, especially for gloomy rainy weather.
Camellia on Club Ivory Floral Print Romper – This versatile floral dress can be worn casually or for a night out on the town.
Studded Faux Leather Wristlet – The studs outlining this handbag keeps the edge going, allowing the whole look to flow.
Embellished Spike Heels – Spikes are trending and pairing these edgy beauties with an overall feminine look goes perfectly.
This fun ensemble will take you from a a Spring day of shopping or to a fun Summer girls’ night out!
Until the next post, take advantage of this one and please do share what you find and come up with. I’d love to see them!
