Bats & Cats

SO I didn't end up going to the fashion show on Saturday (had a fun filled time with some of my friends who came down to LA for the weekend instead~ I LOVE YOU GUYS<3!!!)

but I did make it to the goth party at royal tea on Friday :]

What I wore:

Blouse: goodwill

Skirt: F+F

Boots: Muro

Head thing: hand made the only part of the exhibit that showed up on my super ghetto camera- hahaha I can tell people Lady Gaga was at this too then, right? :'D

There's no point in entering a costume contest if Julie's participating :'D (lol this is one of the few snaps of the night that actually came out D:)

And a full body snap that doesn't involve my messy messy room, thanks to Julie~

Sheyne and her boy looking fabulous as always~

Royal Tea was packed- I wish my photos of the line had come out better! The Wandering Marionettes- when they walked in I heard a lot of people going 'OMG ARE THOSE THE JABBAWOCKEEZ????! :'D Anyway their costumes were really cool and their dance looked awesomeee~ (sadly I was to the side and didn't get the full effect ;3;~)

Part of the special Hello Kitty menu... couldn't resist ;3;~

SO. CUTE.

WELL THEN

Honestly I've been putting off the catch up post for a while since there's so much to catch up on D:

ANYWAY in order of oldest to newest things

halloween costume-

(dress by meta- apron + hat by me)

Also, here's my mid term

Honestly the designs are boring, so I just zoomed in on the fashion figures...

speaking of fashion figures, I just finished this weeks illustration project- we were pretty much given only the constraints of 'it has to have 'shine',

and womens swimsuit back and side pose, so I did two suits inspired by french graffitti artist Fafi~ I think it turned out pretty well

but I'll let you guys know what the teacher thinks :'D

(for reference on my mid term I got a B- / C+ - Yikes!)

Last weekend i didn't attend the tea party, but I did go to PMX-

(dress by meta, blouse + boots from goodwill, crown by me)

so now in school I'm like this-

(taken by a classmate- unfortunately photo was not staged ):)

So that's about it, other then practicing fashion heads from diffrent fashion illustrators

Whew- that wasn't so bad~ I'll probably have a bunch to post after this weekend filled with bats, cats and a fashion show~!

Back and other unrelatedness

Ugh it's been SO LONG without an update...

Anyway my laptop died a couple weeks ago and I just bought a replacement in the last couple of days- I've been pretty busy with school too though.

Of course I have a bunch of stuff to post, and I was about to do a series of posts that were halloween themed, but the material I had was on the old laptop so... perhaps next year :'D

Also I removed the Doe Deere/Lime Crime blog from the blog roll because it seems like Xenia is deep in some shady business indeed. haha if you didn't feel like reading through the links, basically theres a substantial amount of evidence that Lime Crime is just repackaging ready made eyeshadow and marking it up OVER 9000 DOLLARS :'D

of course I don't know any of this 'first hand' because I'm not too into makeup and haven't ordered any of her products before, but I figured I'd give a warning to people who were thinking about purchasing from her :] It seems like a lot of times there are scammers who are fairly well known in bjd fandom/makeup/ some other community that are able to get away with stuff simply because most lolitas aren't part of those other communities and don't recognize them.

SO asside from that shiz- who else is going out for halloween? I sewed up my costume a couple weeks ago so I should have some pretty decent photos later :]

Hot mens and a hair cut :D

Sorry I haven't updated in almost a week- I've been busy though!

MMM nothing says glamorous life of a fashion student like 1 AM pattern drafting :D~

And here's the illustration project that was due next week- it's a shame I didn't get a close up of the bitch boots, but the teacher really dug the tattoo :]

(this week the assignment is striped spandex swimsuits from a back view- oh my!)

also- outfit snap from last friday! I don't know if anyone caught it- but I gave myself a bob the night before! (I should probably go see someone to even out the back though...)

That red jacket is one of my favs~ The skirt, jacket and blouse are all from goodwill!

and sadly... there's no way I can afford the Nightmare Before Christmas x Metamorphose colab, so I drew it :B

Someone posted scans of the pamphlet from Miyavi's current tour here at jrock scans and it is gorgeous! (you have to be a member to see-

here's some previews though!

SERIOUSLY considering buying it if/when he comes to LA!

Bitch is fierceeeeeeeeeee~!

Fuck yeah fridays

PRETTY MUCH like 'Things I love Thursdays' except for it being one day late and involving more 4 letter words :]

(haha real reason it's not on thursday? I'm usually pulling an all nighter for fashion illustration on Friday)

Anyway here we go-

- High fashion photo shoot meets... gundams. Do you get it? Nope? Don't worry- neither do I, but the photography is quite nice.

- Alice Auaa now available at Marui One!

- Supperate System now offering 10500 yen luckypacks! (Value is estimated at around 20000!)

- Milanoo is having a sale on some of their lolita clothing-  Note- pictures on that site are very obviously stolen, but girls have ordered from there and been happy with the  result.  Personally, I'd just avoid ordering anything that puts a focus on or contaains a lot of lace!

-ALSO not really fashion related, but my copy of Disconnect came *3*!

I'm a HUGE fan of the artist and I contributed some guest art for the print version~
