Maybe you're going to Glastonbury, or maybe you just had an unfortunate encounter involving a mucky sidewalk and a fresh pair of jeans—either way, you're probably looking for an easy way to get mud out of your clothing.

Fortunately, icky though it is, mud tends to be an easier stain to deal with than red wine or oil. And if you just came from a music festival, hopefully, you weren't wearing an expensive silk dress (if you did, stop right here, and consult your local dry cleaner before attempting anything DIY, lest you make it worse).

For denim, cotton, and other hardy fabrics, however, read on for a foolproof technique to make your muddy clothes look brand-new again, and shop rain boots to help protect your clothing in the future.

Do you find yourself always looking for that one piece no one else will have? Something unique? True to you? And maybe even kind of sweet? We have just the answer, and the good news is you can do it from the comfort of your own home—DIY monogramming. (Yes, it's a thing.) Since I am no expert on the matter in any way, shape, or form, I decided to turn to an expert.

"Embroidery is literally the easiest way to monogram. It only takes patience! Draw your letters with a pencil on a white tee, and start with a back stitch. All you need is thread, a needle, and a pair of scissors—that's it," says Janis Munz of Janis Embroidery. And if she says it's possible, then it's definitely a case worth hearing out. To give you some background on Janis, while growing up in Paris, France, she would spend hours practicing embroidery with her nanny. But it wasn't until later in her life, between jobs and with some extra time on her hands, that she began stitching tattoo-inspired designs onto her favorite wardrobe pieces and from there created a business around it.

I am not crafty in any sense of the word, and the concept of DIY monogramming seemed extremely foreign to me, but Janis assured me with her step-by-step guide that it's actually pretty easy. By the end of her mini tutorial, you'll be able to monogram and embroider as many items in your closet as your heart desires. In other words, your wardrobe is about to get 10 times more exciting. All you have to do is follow the instructions below.

Go on to find out just how simple DIY monogramming is and shop T-shirts fit for your first tries.

Happy September, everyone! We find ourselves with the sun in Virgo and an active and amazing month ahead after the solar eclipse (in Leo) of August. Virgo emphasizes balance of all kinds: being meticulous about our work and balancing out our daily routines. Virgo also encourages us to help out the people in our lives or even to be of service to strangers.

For September, taking care of our vessels will also be key because when we feel our best, we do our best. The full moon in Pisces on September 20 asks us to balance out the mundane with the spiritual, so even as you are hyper focused on moving ahead this month, be sure to add in some yoga, meditation, or journaling when you need a little time-out. Mercury will be going direct on September 5 from Leo back into Virgo, so we will experience a lot of forward movement with that.

There’s no question that surf girls always look great in swimsuits. Perhaps it’s the fact that they put one on as many times as the rest of us throw on a T-shirt.

Engagement rings have always been a subject of acute fascination. They're so beautiful and symbolize so much that it's not surprising that we place such great importance on them. Combine that fascination with the world's inherent interest in what celebrities wear and who they're in a relationship with and you have a recipe for off-the-charts intrigue. Fittingly, as Brides just reported, London-based diamond retailer 77 Diamonds just released their annual report on the biggest celebrity engagement ring trends. For 2017, they studied everything pertaining to rings received this year, including the metal (yellow gold), diamond shape (emerald), and, of course, the average price of the rings...Any guesses?

If you're thinking anything less than $1 million, you're pretty far off. The average price of new celebrity engagement rings in 2017 is a cool $1.29 million. That said, the average carat weight has gone down from what it was three years ago, which 77 Diamonds says indicates that celebs are spending more on diamond quality than size. 

In the spirit of celebrity engagements, read on to see a few of our favorite celebrity engagement Instagram reveals, and head over to 77 Diamonds to see the rest of the study.

Some celebs switch up their style in major ways from one season to the next. We appreciate that adventurous spirit, of course, but often, one of the signs of a truly curated wardrobe is consistency. And when your outfits are as routinely chic as Kate Bosworth's, well, it garners some attention. Okay, lots of attention.

Bosworth never strays too far outside of her sleek aesthetic. She favors unique silhouettes over look-at-me kinds of embellishments and usually keeps her accessories a bit more pared back to let her statement pieces shine. The results are balanced and modern, and they never make it feel like she's trying very hard. Perhaps that's why, time and again, we find ourselves wondering how to re-create these ensembles for ourselves.

Ahead, we've broken down some of the tips culled from her most recent, most impressive, looks.

It's hard to envision something you can't order on Amazon these days. Now that the brand has absorbed Whole Foods, started delivering wine, and made two-day shipping a must, it's slowly crept its way onto our list of most-visited pages. So while it may not be the first place you think to go jean shopping, it's a sneakily genius choice. 

So, what style has caught the attention of savvy Amazon shoppers? We found a pair of Levi's jeggings that have managed to rack up 1000+ reviews. With the vast majority of those awarding 5-stars to the jeggings. Purchases use words like "life-changing" and "ridiculously comfortable" to describe them, which are safe to say, makes for a pretty convincing appeal. So, if you're on the hunt for the perfect skinny jeans-and-leggings hybrid, this might just be it.
