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......

Fuck yeah fridays-

1. Own a macbook? Tired of that smooth modern exterior? Well maybe the bookbook is for you- http://www.twelvesouth.com/products/bookbook/

Super stylish, especially if you don't want to be toting that distinctively minimalist laptop in lolita, aristocrat or steampunk!

2. Check out this Galliano fashion show- http://community.livejournal.com/fashin/4811217.html

Men in corsets? Yes! Men in underwear? Yes! Men in sock garters? Yes! Men with samurai swords strapped to their heads? Erm... yes!

3. One of my friends is having a concert next week- I'm hella excited xD

4. SUPER inspired and excited by my designs for next week's illustration class- the theam is stripes and a graphic art style so let's have some inspiration images I snapped from the teacher's art books

5. Mixing it up with that black x white empire waisted baby jsk I'm sure everyone's familiar with by now- protip: if the empire waist isn't flattering on you, try sticking a waist coat of a cropped jacket over it- tada! Changed waistline!

Thinking about kicking it old school at Mayuka Project's concert with that jsk and a bxw headdress. Yes, I did just say headdress- it's been awhile since we've seen some of those in lolita fashion :'D

Sorry for the haitus

Okay, so I was at my friend's house chilling before we drove back to LA and she was checking her email and regular websites and... I saw that picture (formerly) at the top of this blog and I went 'Oh lawd- I got that dyejob forever ago!'

Anyway, long story short, I haven't been updating because of personal reasons, also I've been busy like a mofo during break.

SO on to relevant material-

I was on a shopping report at melrose the other day and holy shit-

Vivienne coming to LA?! It's not like I have the money, but I'll be happy to camp outside the store and drool!

It's pretty wierd, I checked the official site and google fu'd it, but there seems to be no relevant info about when it will open up? I'll be swinging over to melrose occasionally, so I'll be sure to keep you guys updated! (currently all the windows are blocked so you can't see in side.... the biulding is pretty big though)

Here's the homework that was due after break

Yup, there it is, nothing much I got to say about it...

and currently working on a arm scythe princess drape for studio- ahhaha I'm sure this is probably tedious newbie stuff to some of you, but it's really exciting! We have to drape two striped dresses next week to use as reference for illustration, so I hope y'all will find that more entertaining~
