In today's DIY, we took inspiration from Chanel's Fall 2012 runway, and we're re-creating a look worn by Miranda Kerr. We customized our embellishments to achieve the perfect colors — watch on to see how it's done! On Allison McNamara: Jacket from Topshop.

With the weather starting to warm up this Spring, celebrities are bringing bling to their bare feet in embellished sandals. At the weekend, Kate Middleton brought out her favourite Jimmy Choo Vamp Sandals (£484) once more for an Olympics concert. A few days earlier at the Met Gala in New York, British singer Florence Welch wore Alexander McQueen embroidered armadillo heel sandals and Kate Bosworth wore a pair of Miu Miu Crystal-Embellished Suede Sandals (£650). Embellishments range from crystals, studs and sequins to tassels and beads, and aren't just reserved for high heels but are popping up on flats too. Shop my selection of embellished sandals available at My-Wardrobe.com and tell me which style is most fab!

Whether you want to dazzle in sequins or toughen up with studs, there's a pair of embellished shorts out there for you. Shop my picks below, and let me know what you think of the trend!
The first time we donned a fringed dress, it was because we were dressing up as flappers for Halloween. Lately, we've been seeing fringe pop up in some glamourous versions — Naomi Campbell in elegant Givenchy couture, young actress and singer Kat Graham showed up to the Teen Choice Awards in a party-ready mini with floor-length fringe detail, and Olivia Wilde donned a one-of-a-kind Gucci dress with gold and black beaded fringe for a Cowboys and Aliens photocall in Italy. The dresses may be different, but we're curious to hear what you think of the trend. Would you buy a fringe dress, or is it too much for real life?
