The Create Restore Brand

I pulled the mannequin out today to show you what some of our dresses from the "We are America" collection look like on. What do you think? This Vince Camuto cold shoulder dress is perfect for spring and would be great to wear to brunch or on a date. Check out our stories for more dresses that we put on the mannequin and shop them at www.created2restored.com.

Do you love bling and shiny things in small quantities? Try adding patent leather shoes, like these from Michael Kors, or rhinestones, like the black ones in this Kate Spade wristlet, to your wardrobe. Pair them with a metallic piece for a bold look, or keep it simple with jeans and a t-shirt. And maybe a cute little jacket. Shop these thrifted pieces at www.created2restored.com.

"It's never too early in the day to wear silver or gold! We think of those colors as ""going out"" colors, but as our inspiration photo shows, when paired with the right pieces, metallic can easily be worn to the office!

Shop this thrifted Guess top and silver metallic H & M skirt at www.created2restored.com and let us know how you plan to wear it!"

When I look back 10 years ago, I was in good shape. I didn’t eat the best in the world, but I was active and I worked out often. Little did I know that 10 years later, I would be dealing with a chronic illness and that the life that I now live is vastly different than the life I thought I would be living.

And while everything is still new to me, I'm determined not to let pain rule my life. Read about how my journey starts and how it's going here.
