Bodyline

So i know that most "true" Lolitas look down on bodyline. BUT i'm not a lolita so i don't care! yay!

Here's a couple of items i really want!


Carousel Skirt - I'm addicted to carousel anything right now. carousel horses are so pretty. I really like Angellic Pretty's Sugary Carnival print and i would love the skirt. However i'm very very poor being a student and all and would never be able to afford it. unless there was a very damaged one someone was selling on the cheap that i could fix up. I don't agree with the concept of replicas so, even though i'm not a lolita and don't mind buying bodyline, i would never buy a rip-off of someone else's hard work like that.
However, this print is really really adorable and i plan on buying it when i get the money.
In either lilac or pink. <3


This print is also very cute and it's quite different to anything any big brands have right now. (just cause i don't dress in lolita doesn't mean i don't pay attention. :3)
Would definitely get this in white.



This skirt is adorable i love the heart lace trim. This would probably be a purchase in mint. really loving mint right now.



I totally <3 playsuits. they're so cute and easy to wear. i love the yellow and pinky colouring of this one in particular.


These next skirts are totally adorable but I would probably be able to make one myself. I really like the polka dots and stripes combination that's going on.






EDIT: OMFG THEY HAVE THE CAROUSEL PRINT IN A JSK!

Holy Necomimi!!!

My mind..... is blown.... all over the walls..... i NEED these in my life!!!!



I'm sorry but car ears that react to your brainwaves and move like real cat ears?!?!?! DO WANT!!!

They're made by a company called Neurowear who are at the moment still perfecting them. They are set to release the end of this year and i'm going to start saving right now! i bet they're expensive..... but i don't really care actually. XD Apparently they are going to create more and better ones but i cant think of any other animal ears i'd want that cat ones. OMFG THE COSPLAYS!!! I just hope they get rid of the ugly bar that goes across your forehead (not shown in the demo video).

You can find more about these here.

I need some......

Snuggly Earmuffs

So i personally have started thinking about winter and how cold it's going to get soon.
I get very cold ears in the winted, they'rew very prone to cold winds and i guess all my piercings doesn't help with the whole, conducting cold/heat thing so they get very cold in the winter. Also with my history of ear problems they hurt soooooo bad if they get too cold.

Last year i trawled the shops and internet for a pair of earmuffs that i liked enough to wear on a daily basis but to no avail. So, my poor ears were cold all winter again.

Well after seeing Himehood's tutorial on Youtube about how to make your own out of a coat hanger, i got my butt onto google for some inspiration for my own pair.


I like the pink fluffy poofyness and the bows.


Rainbows and clouds! totally cute! i like the colours but not the whole tie-under-the-chin-ribbon things. Thats why i could never be a lolita, i hate stuff tied around my chin or my neck etc.


I like the colour and bells thing for a christmas pair. ^_^



I then did a little designing (on gloomy bear paper no less. win!)



I kinda want some ears, just cause they're cute. XD
Might incorporate an old pair of earphones in with it so they can play music and keep my ears warm. I do have a pair of awesome headphones that do kinda the same job but i like the idea of cosy puffiness with the music.

When i move into my new flat i will definitely be taking apart some wire hangers for these!

To be made. . .

So i've been inspired by a lot of things recently. Lots of Yumetenbo clothing and some fairy kei stuff too so here is a list of things i plan on making as soon as i can!

~Lace shorts
I found a tutorial on Honestly WTF for turning a pair of mens boxers into lace shorts.
Well i thought this was ingenius and ive been after a pair for aaaaages. so decided this'd be a cute thing to make for layering under skirts or wearing with a long top and socks.

~ Yumetenbo School Dress

I like the shape and it's very SNSD Chocolate Love-ish

~More Yumetenbo Dresses




More Yumetenbo dresses. i really like them both but will probably only make one. need to find some comfy jersy/stretch fabric. :D

~ Fairy-kei coat
A year or so ago H&M brought out a few short fur coats in black, pink and tan. In fabriclan there is this amazing fluffy star print fleece in pastel colours that i've wanted since forever, very Fairy-kei. Since it's coming up to autumn and winter i decided that it's a perfect time to make an adorable jacket/hoody thing from this fleece. should be adorable. :D and warm!

The only issue now is, how am i going to get the money for it all??? ;_;

Power Puff Girls!



So the other week i bought a whole load of old sheets. These included powerpuff girls fabric!!! :D
I used to (and still do) LOVE the PPG so i couldn't pass it up and at it was only about £5 for a sheet i think it was a bargain!




I wanted to make a high waisted skirt from the start but whether to pleat it or bias cut it i couldn't decide and i played around with different pleats for aaaaages before i decided on the two on each side. I definitely wanted the braces and this skirt looks totally cute with a pink tshirt underneath. it's also super comfy! :D I love it!

Decoden

So recently i've been totally addicted to whipped cream Decoden,for those who don't know, it's basically a 100% white silicone stuff that you apply to phone cases, tins, boxes etc to represent icing or whipped cream on a cake and add pretty much anything cute. Fimo and polymer food is particularly popular like cookies, cakes, macarons, strawberries and things like that.
Another type of decoden is that which is just rhinestones and gems clustered all over the thing you want to decoden.

I have two phones right now, a Samsung Genio Touch which has interchangeable back covers which i deco'd with rhinestones, mini buttons,a bow sticker and a fabric bow and an Iphone 4 which is decorated with the whipped cream and has fimo fruits, cupcakes etc on.



Left: My Samsung: The rhinestones were bought at The Range, originally bought for my nail art but got promoted to decoden. The red bow was from an old nerckalce i never wore. opposite that used to be a red heart bead that was from the same necklace but it dropped off ages ago. The mini buttons were bought in an craft store, the strawberry is a button that i cut the loop off of, the blue bow is a sticker and the pink heart used to be on an old pen which had a big squisky heart on and had stopped working.

Right: Iphone 4. The star beads i found when i was at my parents and searching through my old room. The top right corner WERE 2 strawberries i made myself from fimo but one fell off. The orange pony used to be a hair clip i never wore, the heart cookies are fimo and the tiny cookie cutter was bought from a craft store, the pink and white cookies and cupcake are made from fimo too. the little slices of fruit dotted around were bought in a nail and hair shop.

They're both very DIY which saved me a lot of money because i had all the items already.
