School recently started again and I still don't have internet in my apartment- once AT&T stops being a butt about things, I'll do a propper update but so far things are looking pretty exciting for junior year
+ we split off to design teams and I'm with Diesel working on their undies/loungewear
+ getting more in depth with fabric treatments
+ screen printing!
+ learning to source and outsource
+ learning more about how being a designer out in the industry works
+ anddd hopefully I'm getting more organized so I'll be able to update
thanks to all of you (hahaha when did I get so many watchers? ah 28 is a lot for me!), and please bear with me for the moment!

Bleeding onto other blogs
Hahaha nothing I can really share right now,
but things are kind of moving crazy fast for me at the moment, I'll share once I have something solid to show you guys<333333 (and when I have time :'D)
ANYWAY about the blog bleeding part- I recently took a class with an amazing milliner, Jasmin Zorlu ( http://www.jasminzorlu.com/ )
she posted some shots from the class here:
http://jasminzorlu.blogspot.com/
hahaha you can see the hat I made at the link above, but here's some clearer pics on my new foam head :'D
It's made from crinoline, feathers and netting
also I made a new hat and accessories for the Red Sky at Night party
(sadly the dress i wanted to buy was sold out so I wore my meta JSK and couldn't enter the outfit competition Dx)
I was really happy because a lot of people liked it and asked how I made it <3
I"ll post a tutorial on here later and on sew_loli once I have the time~
honestly my photos of the event and my outfit sucked! my camera was acting up for some reason that night!
however there better photos at looooo's blog : http://kalamarikastle.com/?p=259
(ahhh! I was really suprised a closeup of my hat was part of the main post ;___;)
anyway I took a breather the next day and went to tea with my friend Julia <3
The place was called 'Teas the Season' and is located in down town San Mateo- it's not quite as good as Crown and Crumpet in SF, but it's a hell of a lot closer for me! Also you can cut costs if you go with a friend and order one pot of tea and then seperate plates of sandwiches/scones/sweets from eachother~ They also have knitting nights (friday) and monthly book club meetings! I want to go knit there but I've been super busy lately. Read More......

haitus
hahaha lets be honest, I've really been neglecting this thing.
the truth is- I'm super busy! right now i'm working for a local designer in addition to doing tons of other things (hahaha and getting ready for Red Sky At Night) and when I get back to school I'll also be super busy so I won't be able to post
so
don't expect anymore updates
I might post a pic spam every so often but I'm too busy working with fashion to blog about it! Read More......

Fanime + outfit snaps
Sadly I wasn't able to afford the 'Fancy french event' as we were all calling it, but I did have a blast at fanime! Not posting my cosplay photos, but I was in lolita for half the weekend.
I picked up a brand new Algonquins t-shirt from the swap meet on friday for 20$- according to the tag, the retail was about 60! (Never underestimate swap meets- 80% of the stuff you probably won't be intrested in, but you can find some real gems if you look hard enough!)
The head bow is from Chantilly (35$) , and the flower head band I think is from Paris kids(7$), both were bought at the magical boutique.
of course no photos were allowed, but it was crazy seeing so much brand in one place at once! It was amazing to be able to see tripple fortune head pieces and brands like atlier pierrot and chantilly up close- eventhough I'm more of a goth at heart, I fell half in love with the black colorway of Angelic Pretty's Wonder Cookie skirt *__*
This is what I was wearing on Sunday morning, repping the old school bxw coordinate- the JSK is by Baby and of course the bow is the one I bought at the magical boutique.
I wish I could have gotten more outfit shots but here's what I do have-
I wish I took some more photos before the lolita fashion show! Everyone looked amazing! Hahaha I was kind of out of it and half blind, (thankyou wig and contact lenses...) so I didn't feel like fiddling around with my camera
here's me and my pal Julia- I'm repping goth and she's wearing a super awesome punk loli coordinate!
full outfit...
in action! Eventhough I was in the fashion show last year too I was still really nervous and didn't know how to pose!
smiling because it's over hahahaha
I made the bonnet by myself and the dress is metamorphose <333 Read More......

It's over!
school is (finally) out! I should be able to update this blog more...
anyway here's the fashion illustrations from my final
the outfit I wore for our final critique was kind of dolly inspired~
I scanned in a lot of my old work from this year onto my deviant art, so if you wanted a better look at something, check it out!

mine's that strappy thing in the middle
