FINALLY FINISHED

Omg I am so relieved that we are finally finished with the corset we were making in the workshop. The first saturday we were in there it took like 5 hours. The next saturday we went it took like 6 and then we went to finish on sunday, that took 7 hours. I had to go back to finish up the last stitches, put on the grommets, and lace it up. That itself with the grommets and getting the stitches right took like a freakin hour!!! I was so relieved when i finished. I got some food and took a short nap. I finally know why corsets cost like 200- 300 dollars!! They are so freakin tedious and you have to get every stitch correct and precise otherwise it won't fit. I was getting tired by the 2nd day so ummm im pretty sure ours (shep and me) didnt really correctly fit to size. We got so lazy. Later on i will put up some pictures.

OXFORDS

I've been so lusting over some freakin oxfords. I really need some and i know if i get some i absolutely have to keep from wearing them like everyday. They are so awesome. There is another pair that i was thinking about but they are completely sold out everywhere online which seriously sucks. They are so fine!!!!


I am so heartbroken about these!!! but i do still love the other ones!!! (at the top)

FEELING RIGHT AT HOME

These babies are the latest additon to my family of awesomeness. I love these boots. The color is perfect. They are so comfy and i love how they look with skinny jeans and shorts. There's nothing like a great pair of boots. :)

Here I am making a corset in the costume shop sporting my lovely boots. Thanks shep for not really getting my boots!!!! i need a new camera person. lol. just kidding shep.

A WHOLE NEW LIFE

lately I've been inspired to create alot of things. I love Chanel and since it mostly costs too much i had the urge to create something. I decided to make a Chanel blanket. Its a simple soft ivory blanket that i already owned and i bought some black satin and printed out an image of the double c logo. With my wits i created a logo that will not unravel and sewed it to my blanket. TaDa!!! My blanket has new life and now I'm in love!!!


ONE DAY TO HAVE A DRESS FORM

I love all things diy, making skirts are my absolute favorite. You can do so much with fabric. I would really like to get a dress form but they kinda cost a little too much so I've decided to make my own using a t-shirt and duct tape. I will post some pics up soon.

COSTUME SHOP

My home away from home. This is the costume shop at my school. I freakin love this place
