Is there anything better than jewelled-out dresses to make a girl feel all shinny and new? Not likely. I rediscovered this dress in the depths of my closet since buying it for my birthday last summer, and pulling it out of hibernation made it feel almost new again — don't you just love when that happens? Shopping your closet can yield some pleasantly surprising results... I guess the only challenge is remembering that sometimes, huh?

Thanks for joining me for a week of bedazzled goodness/craziness, and stay tuned for your weekend reading list, up tomorrow! xx

{Bedazzled Week} Embellished Cap DIY

Welcome back for more bejewelled action! Today we're jazzing up a basic black cap for some added impact. This is one of the easiest projects you'll ever try, so grab some jewels and your trusty glue, because we be-dazzlin' ladies!

 
SUPPLIES: 
     - Baseball cap (I sourced mine from Michaels)
     - Flat-backed jewels (also from Michaels)
     - Strong adhesive


Start by pre-arranging your gems into your desired pattern. Once you know where everything should go, start gluing down the embellishments, pressing down firmly on each gems for about 30 seconds to adhere.

 
Let the gems dry fully (I would recommend at least an hour before use), then take that new cap of yours for a spin... Holy chic!
