You know all those excuses you make for yourself when you leave the house without doing your hair? Well, this dog just blew up your spot.

Kuma — a Pekingese and shih tzu mix — is the latest fashion icon to reach Instagram stardom. Her 22,000 followers receive daily updates on her tresses, as well as daily doses of #hairenvy. 

Of course, Kuma isn’t the only pet with a bevy of internet fans. There’s Cecil, Cara Delevingne’s rabbit, and Marni the dog (who has almost 2 million followers). Now Kuma may not be as classy as Choupette the cat (Karl Lagerfeld’s chic kitten) or Neville Jacobs (Marc Jacobs’s dog), but she’s the only furry friend we want braiding our hair before prom. read more

Most of you don’t know me personally, but I’ll tell you this now — my hands are constantly cold. I’ve been thinking about making gloves that are skin colored with painted fingernail tips just so I can wear them all day long without people (at first glance) knowing that I’m wearing gloves inside. But for now, we’ll start with DIY hand warmers.

Make smaller ones for your kiddos and stick them in their jacket pockets to keep their hands warm while they wait for the school bus during these colder months. read more

Yahoo Makers: Monogrammed Leather Keychains

Well, these days, the headband has softened a little bit, and has extended beyond grade school to become quite the fashionable wardrobe addition for girls of all ages. From beaded chains draped loosely across the forehead to bands that keep bangs at bay – the headband is a perfect finishing touch to any outfit.  read more

Staples of the season: mulled wine and cozy sweaters, right? 

Given Los Angeles doesn’t ever get remotely close to frigid temperatures, we tend to deal with a massive case of FOMO when we see the rest of the country wearing festive cable-knits. Our solution? Creating one on our nails, obviously. If you have a steady hand and are good at painting your nails, this look is relatively simple to re-create, given you have gel polish and a curing device at home. If not, it’s a great look to give your nail artist for inspiration!  read more
