If you've been floating around on Instagram for a while now you may have come across a few monochromatic fashion posts featuring an incredible mosaic of silver chains, coins and gunmetal bling hanging from peoples fashionably pert chests. So what are these delectable heavy pieces of work? None other but a fascinating creation by designer Drew Ginsberg, founder and creator of DylanLex, who customize handmade neck pieces made from antique metals and Swarovski crystals valued at about $600 and up!

But have no fear, we are crafty little chickens, and I'm going to show you how you can have your very own one of a kind DylanLex neck piece for about $50 dollars - or even less if you already have a bunch of silver necklaces you no longer need. Don't be put off by all the metal going on in the pictures, this is incredibly simple to make and just requires a little patience.

Hi Girls!,

So for the past three years my skin has seen more downs than it's seen ups. I've witnessed my acne go from non existent, to moderate, to partially severe, and there I began a journey of cocktailing all sorts of crazy, expensive, pretty packaged garbage all in the name of vanity. Not to digress from this review, (I plan to talk more about skin in the future) I basically tried anything and everything, and to no avail continued with painful breakouts and worse; scarring. I became pretty lackluster about skin care regimes until I finally decided I would try one last time to invest more patience, research, consistency and even a tad more money to find the skin I had always dreamed of before I would settle to accept what it had become. And that's when I discovered Paula's Choice.

To give you some background info on this company, Paula's Choice skin care creates products containing ingredients that have been scientifically tested and proven through peer reviewed scientific journal articles. So what does all this loco mean? It means there is a scientific guarantee that what you are buying will to some degree actually DO something- and something good! Essentially, you are not buying "empty" products that have what I describe as "fillers" - basically a bunch of useless "science-y stuff" that smell nice and make you feel like something is happening.

So, I've just completed three interesting months of trialing this exhaustive 'Skin Balancing' 7-step kit hoping to get my skin back to a happy medium. I made sure not to pick anything specifically targeting acne, just to give it the pimple-fighting break it deserved, and I was aiming to restore back the moisture I had lost from years of over drying out my face. Therefore, I went with something recommended for normal skin types, and to sum it up shortly, I was pleasantly surprised!
