postheadericon Crafty corner

This has been a pretty boring day... Though since I didn't have anything to do in particular (except the daily exercise that's over and done with), I decided to be a bit crafty! I'm not really very crafty at all. I like to sew and draw, but when it comes to accessories and the like, I have no experience at all... But I had a lot of different small knick-knacks here and there so I decided to whip something up with what I had.

So I fancied up som plain black hairclips I had. Yes, this is nothing more then to attach small cabochons to clips with a hot glue gun, but at least it was fun! And it doesn't take more to make them a little more fancy. But I also decided to make something a little more "challenging".

It's a headdress made out of a rose and rooster feathers! I actually like this a lot. I still haven't found a proper way I can wear it, but that's something I can think of later. The music charms are from a necklace I bought from Etsy a while ago, but it was literally falling apart when I got it, so I decided to put the pretty charms to some use instead.

Anyway... Other then this I got a new blouse today. A black, shortsleeved Metamorphose blouse in chiffon with full shirring and a lot of lace that I bought off the EGL comm sales.It's simply beautiful and I can't wait for a little warmer weather so I can use it!

Toodles!

postheadericon 10/7 Challenge: 1 and 2

So this took a while, but here is the first and second outfit of my 10 items/7 outfits challenge! So without further ado... Here we go!

Outfit #1: Items E, G and J!
Here I was trying out a pretty casual and comfortable outfit that could work well for days with school and just a quick trip out to town. I was pretty lucky with this JSK as it came with removable bows and bib which make it very easy to dress both up and down! The hat is an old hat of mine from H&M that I refuse to leave the house without when I'm not in lolita. Necklace and bracelet are both bought from Etsy stores and the tights are off brand.

Outfit #2: Items B, E and H!
A much more dolled up look, literally, and yes, that is my dance pad I'm standing on. It was the only free space in my room at the moment. This is actually a coord I have wanted to try since I first saw that bonnet in the Etsy shop, Ophanim Gothique. I posted a similiar dream coord a while ago too with a different blouse, dress and shoes. I am very happy to see that my coord will work when I try it out for real! I just need some more red roses to place here and there and some different shoes and I'm ready to go! I also used a poofier petticoat here to acchieve more of a doll look. And makeup!! OMG! First time since I started this blog! ... Anyway. Bonnet (which I definatly LOVE) is from Ophanim Gothique, tights are from Sock Dreams.

So that was my first two outfits in this challenge! Stay tuned for the rest! I'll keep posting them now and then.

Toodles!

postheadericon 10/7 Challenge: START!

So I ran over this post on EGL... It was about a challenge. The challenge was to pick 10 different items and put together 7 vastly different coords only using those ten items. I thought this sounded awesome! So I'm going to give it a go as I don't have too much to play with yet and want to have a large variety of options with what I have. Here's the challenge post: 10 Items/7 Outfits Challenge!

And here are the copy-pasted rules:

  1. Choose 10 items from your wardrobe. Shoes are part of this list.
  2. These items should not include: accessories such as socks, jewellery, bags or headgear.
  3. Label each item from A - J.
  4. Put together 7 significantly different outfits from your 10 items.
  5. You may choose to wait until you want to go out in lolita, or just wear all 7 straight away in your room!
  6. Take pictures, and label the different components.
  7. Share it with us in the comments! Throw us links to your album/blog/posts and I'll put up a link list here.

I won't be starting with an outfit today since it's way too late (3am) to start with such now. But I will post the ten items I have chosen. So here goes!
