Pinterest, you know we love ya. Where else can a stylista go to make adorbs jewelry on the cheap? But some tricky tutorials can leave us discouraged. Sawing, welding and drilling? Um, we’ll pass on the toolbox and stick with our craft kit, thanks. We rounded up the cheapest and easiest jewelry tutorials that any plucky novice can master.

In a couple of weeks, I'm going to my uncles friends wedding. the thing is I need a dress! and I'm in this weird stage (I'm 12) where I fit into kids clothes and juniors clothes. but the thing is, kids clothed look way to babyish on me but my mom loves them! then, the juniors clothes are so cute but they have the cups (and I don't have a chest!!). today, I went to 6 different stores looking for dress, but coming out empty-handed and disappointed. I did find this really cute dress tha fits me, but my nipples were weird!! I'm just SOOO stressed out. I just wanna grow up!!! what's a store or stores that might have cute clothes, fits me, and isn't expensive (I'm willing to go up to $70 or so) thanks soooo much!! <3

 

Hey girlie, try a store like Kohl's or any department stores. Department stores should have a ton of formal juniors dresses and there should be a lot without the built in cups.

MOD! MOD! MOD!
I got 3 new pairs of pattered jeans and want to wear them to school what would go good with them? I have:
A metallic copper pair
A dark pink with small polkadots pair
and a light pink flowery pair

 

Hey girlie, anything black would probably go really well with your metallic copper ones. Navy or white would be good with either of the other two. The trick to patterned jeans is solid tops so as long as your colors match then you're safe with any solids.

MOD! I bought a pair of Doc Martens on Wednesday, and breaking them in is killing my feet. The problem is that they're so stiff, especially around the back of my ankles and my heels. My feet are really sore and my ankles and heels have blisters, so it hurts to walk. Any ideas on how I can make my feet feel better?

 

Hey girlie, put band aids on your blisters so that they hurt less when you walk. And put some ice on them when you're just sitting around the house because they might be a little swollen. When your feet start to feel better, try breaking your shoes in by wearing them a little bit at a time. A quick trip the grocery store is a good way to break them in without overdoing it.
