Champagne Cake

YES please! I am such a champagne junky and combining it with cake just sounds like the ultimate treat to me.

I came across this amazing discovery from Apollinas who made herself a stunning Miu Miu inspired birthday cake (covered in edible glitter = awesome!!).  The cake flavor? Pink Champagne! She incorporated some yummy peach preserves and vanilla buttercream. Mmmm sounds delish!

I found out she used this recipe from Simply Decorated (which originally came from Cuisine at Home) as her basis for the cake, and gave it her own twist. What a perfect treat!

DIY Glitter Sunglasses

The inspiration:

Alexander McQueen Sunglasses

Jimmy Choo Oversized Sunglasses

The supplies:

A pair of cat-eye sunglasses and some glitter glue in any color you prefer!  I found using the actual glitter glue pens was much easier (and less messy) than applying the glue and the glitter separately.

These are from Charlotte Russe (only $5!!)

It was SO simple - just apply the glitter glue to the top outside corners of the sunglasses to add just a touch of glam and sparkle.

The finished product:

Okay, so it doesn't take a skilled DIY-er to pull this off, but I am obsessed with anything glittery and since I couldn't find a pair of glitter-accented sunglasses in my price range, I decided to make my own and thought I'd share the process with you :)
