It is the blog’s first birthday today and I can’t believe it has been a whole year since I wrote this post on this small little space online. I honestly had no idea what I was getting into, I just knew I wanted to share my love and passion of fashion, style, beauty and LIFE on this space. The best part about it all has been getting to know others through their blogs and meetings some blogger buddies in real life! And I have many to thank…
StylingSeries: Layering Beaded Necklaces
Hey everyone, it is my third StylingSeries video and another video on layering necklaces… this time on beaded necklaces! Also, don’t mind Emma in the video I’m not sure if she wanted to be in the video or was more interested in just eating my beads. Anyway, hope you enjoy! Happy Thursday… today is my Friday so I will be heading home to Iowa with the pup!
StylingSeries: How to Layer Statement Necklaces
My second StylingSeries video is up! This time I show a quick and easy way to pick out a couple statement necklaces and pair them together for a unique look! Check out my last StylingSeries video on how to quickly and easily style a belt over a dress or skirt/shirt!
Styling Series: How to Style a Belt
Happy Tuesday! Last week I got a comment asking about how I styled my belt a certain way and so I decided to start a new video series about styling and my first one is how to style a belt! Don’t worry, this video is only 3 minutes and 15 seconds!
Hope you enjoy… please email me at rachelslookbook@gmail.com or leave a comment if there are future styling videos you would like to see in the future!
Final July Budget Update! – First Video Post

Hey everyone! I am so excited to feature my first video post updating you on my July budget. You can see my first two posts on my July budget here and here talking about what I was hoping to get and an update on where I was at part way through the month. I hope you enjoy my first video, but please excuse me this is my first time ever doing something like this and I know I said “It is super cute” a million times and repeated some other terms too…haha. I really do feel that way about these things but I’m certain I will have better words to explain this next time I make a video. Please let me know if you have any questions about my budget and how I was able to get these items (I ended up spending about $15 over my budget, which I originally set at $150). If you are interested, you can subscribe to my YouTube channel here!
I hope you have a wonderful Friday and a GREAT weekend!
