How to Master the Rodarte Rosette

Posted on October 11, 2013October 13, 2013 by admin

11 Oct

During the Fall 2013 runway shows, one thing was apparent… Braids are IN. The models on the Rodarte catwalk stood out above the rest so we did a little investigating on how to do the “Rodarte Rosette”.

1. With Damp Hair start by adding curl reviver mousse spray to add some texture. Blow dry with your fingers to create a loose wavy look. Finger roll some of the strands in the front to create a tighter curl.

2. Use a curling iron and hairspray to create curls from mid-crown down.

3. Grab a section of hair from each side of the front, and braid, connecting at the back of the head. Wrap the ends of the braids into a rosette shape, and secure with bobby pins.

4. Grab a section of hair directly below the rosette you’ve created, and braid this straight down to the ends of the hair, securing with an elastic.

5. Smooth out some of the ends, try not to polish the hair too much though because you want a textured, almost messy look to pull this off!

Drink DIY : Cinnamon Iced Coffee

Posted on October 10, 2013October 13, 2013 by admin

10 Oct

First you’ll need a cold brewed toddy maker. They’re roughly $40 & can be found on Amazon with next day shipping. Instead of brewing coffee in the morning, you’ll have cold brewed coffee concentrate in the fridge (keeps for 2 weeks).

1. Put cinnamon sticks in the concentrate and let it soak in.

2. Fill your cup 25% full with coffee concentrate

3. Add either hot water or ice/cold water depending on your mood.

4. Add cream and sugar

Wa-la! You have a smooth and delicious coffee. To hear the story behind this recipe, check out Could I Have That

Designer Spotlight : Tigerlily

Posted on October 1, 2013October 13, 2013 by admin

01 Oct

Tigerlily is an australian brand that we are so excited to add to the designer roster at Electric Frenchie. Their prints are exclusive and they make the best light weight kaftans and dresses. A swimwear company, they create clothes for the resorter and the island adventurer alike. Their most recent lookbook was shot in the Maldives, a small set of islands smack dab in the middle of the Indian Ocean, south of Sri Lanka.

Beach bumm’n in a cool tee-pee with sewn fabric just for this shoot!

The designer say she creates the collection to “embody our feelings on a beach lifestyle inspired by health, freedom and happiness”. Who can’t get behind that?!

The soma blouse. We’re the only store in the US who has it!

The designer is constantly on what she call the “bikini trail”, her exploration for the best bikini. This basically sounds like the best life ever! Follow the Tigerlily blog for a look at what inspires her to create this beautiful collection.

Recently written up in Australian In Style, this designer is getting noticed for her attention to prints, textiles and those little details that make a piece special. In November we get a big shipment so stay tuned!
