For the love of...W♥C!




OOTD: May 21,2011
Bonjour mes amis~!
Last week I made yet a purchase from Tori! (^-^)~~~ KEKEKE. My most recent purchase was the W♥C distressed shorts. They are a tad loose on me, but I LOVE THEM.  I totally wanted to wear them to work today, but they are just about borderline scandalous.(T^T) OH OH OH, Tori also surprised me with the cutest mirror! *^*~~~~! BLAHHHHH, I recently lost my knock-off Anna Sui mirror, so receiving this was just perfect. I may be changing my interest in clothing, but cute little traveling trinkets never fail to make their way into my make-up bag. ♥

... I have been meaning to blog about my last W♥C purchase from Tori, but I was focused on my yaplog at the time, which BTW will probably be forever on hiatus now. Anyways, I am definitely lucky to have the "sex&w♥c" cardigan! It totally suits me. At first you don't notice the obscenity of the words, but when you look hard enough, the text is shockingly vulgar. IMO, that's kind of like my personality. I'm extremely meek & shy at a glance, but when you get to know me I'm surprisingly obnoxious. LOL~~~ Having pieces that embody your entity brings more value to your closet, don't you think?

Anyways, head on over to:

(lol, hurry, before i do)

It's going to be, BOKEH.





Hello everyone~ ^^

So, recently my family became the proud owners of a Canon 600D/Rebel T3i!Now, I'm not claiming to be a professional at photography... In fact, I am still learning how to use the camera! T^T~~~ But those photos are just a little look into the type of photos I'm interested in shooting outside of fashion. After watching DigitalRev videos, I was really inspired to make my own bokeh shapes. In this photo set, I used a heart shape, though, they look more like a messed up pacman V_V... Hopefully, when I have more understanding of how bokeh works, I'll place a DIY video and tutorial here! ^^ Until then...

See you later~~~

DIY Fringed Crop Top



What's up everyone?!
I'm so horrible at updating this blog. (T __ T) But, I have come back with a video! I have always been into boat neck tops, but recently I became fond of some things I would never pick up before... crop tops & fringe! I used to think fringe was too gaudy and flapper/hippie-like, but somehow I've become open to such a thing. Then there's the ordeal of crop tops... You can be frowned upon for wearing one, but I believe as long as you're carrying a modest attitude, there's no reason for those disapproving eyes. LOL, I get such looks quite frequently, but I know who I am and what values I hold for myself. (^ o ^)~~~ So here's my video!

[*WARNING: You may want to lower/mute your audio. KPOP plays throughout the video ^^;;]


[Sorry, for the LQ of the video. My original video was 1.3Gig, but that would have taken 8 hours to upload to youtube! (O _ o) Unfortunately, I had to compress it to about 70MB for a reasonable upload time.]

Instructions:
1) Gather materials: 1 oversized tee that you would like to reform & a pair of fabric scissors. (Regular scissors will work too, but it'll be a little more difficult to cut with since the blades may have been dulled.)

2) If you would like to a how to on creating the boat neck effect, visit Tori's blog! ^^<33 Otherwise, fold your tee in half and sure the edges are neatly aligned. I already have a particular length that I like in crop tops, so I used my old kitson tee as a reference. But to give you an idea as to how much I cut off, it was about 5" and at this length it is an inch past my navel.

3) Once you reached your desired length, cut straight across the bottom of the shirt.

4) Unfold your shirt and lay it flat, this is where we will begin to make our fringes! Make your first cut at the side of the tee. Then work your way in. You will want the length of the fringe to be about 3" or more and the width of the fringe to be 1/2 an inch or less. For this first attempt I decided with 3"-high and 1/2"-wide

5) When you have completed the cutting around the shirt, pull at the fringes. Add some strength, as you will want these fringes to be skinnier rather than wide! Do this for each fringe.

6. Give the tee a little shake and you're done!


This was really fun and easy to make! Early in the video you see an already cut out top, I learned how to make this via TORI~! I suggest leaving more shoulder space though! I don't know if it's just me, but I can't keep my top up so I'll usually have a long racer back tank underneath. (v_v);;; LOL, earlier I showed the finished product to my mom and she said "That's so 80's! Are you going to do the sleeves as well?" AH, as much as I like fringe now, I think that doing the sleeves would be too much. What do you guys think? I'll be going out today and I predict that I will be buying some oversized tees to use my new DIY skills on! x)T

[If any of you have questions feel free to ask & I'll do my best to answer them!]

See you later~!

A new vibe~?



What's up everyone~?!
As of late, I have really been into creating looks that posses a strong image. I have not touched black articles of clothing since my freshman year in high school. I was told that I needed to broaden my closet and rocking black all the time was not really appealing. Hearing that hurt my pride back then... PFT! But here I am doing the black thing again and rocking it better than ever! (at least I hope I am xD) Hopefully I'll be able to get my lazy bum to do some coordi posts tomorrow~~~

LOL, that photo btw is the very first middle part pic of myself I have posted online.... ughhh it's just not me :[
