Getting Ready for Halloween

  Halloween is one of my all time fave holidays! I am so excited this year to be Wonder Woman! This year I am kind of making my costume, but not really. I bought a corset from Hot Topic and some Volleyball shorts from Dicks Sporting Goods. I am going to be tacking on some stars to the shorts and making the cape. This cape is going to be something else I can already tell.    Here are a few Wonder Woman costume ideas I am digging.

 

       I have been reading some DIY blog post on how to make one and everyone is basically saying they want to kill themselves. Wah, but anyways I hadn't made a post in awhile so this is just a quick update on my life.   Here is the link that I am following to help me make my cape. Hopefully it will look like this when completed.

   I will post a tutorial on how I am making my Wonder Woman costume. What are you dressing up as for Halloween? Here is a link to my Halloween Pinterest Board {it is full of fun ideas}. Tell me if you use any of these ideas!

Tutorial: How to Post a Link in a Comment

Do you ever see some people commenting on blogger post and instead of typing their whole url they post an actual link to their page?

In my opinion this is a lot nicer than posting the whole url. It makes it easier for other people to access your website and it looks more professional. 

All you have to do is find the post you want to comment on and proceed like you normally would..

 

Then the next step is to type your comment as you normally and would and past this code into the comment box wherever you want it.

iOS7 Update

Okay so I am totally OBSESSED with the new iPhone update! At first I was unsure of the new design, but after the initial shock wore off I love it. Now that Apple has totally revamped the six year style it is more sleek and modern. One of the features that I am most in love with is the lockscreen! Like how cute is this! {yes I know 2% lol}

Not to mention my background is adorable! Another feature I am loving is the fact that some off the apps have a frosted window effect which also changes colors as the screen moves! The colors match up with whatever your background image is! Totally cute, right? The bottom navigation bar that holds icons like safari, phone, music and mail is also translucent. 

I'm still working with the update and checking out all the cool new stuff! Apple has also added in features that the android had already featured in their past phones like the flashlight app. This allows you to toggle your led light on and off. This is helpful for those nights when your bumbling around to find your keys in your purse at night. 

Another cool feature that is new is the fact that you can open a website on safari and choose to make it "app like" meaning that it will show up on your homes teen even if you're not on safari. 

Yeah I know! I'm obsessed! What are you guys most excited for?
