p.s. intrebare pt cititori: ar fi lume interesata sa urmareasca un blog/o sectiune cu outfiturile pustiului? (ca sa imi dau seama daca e o idee extrem de exagerata sau doar un pic tacanita :D:D:D:D)

Smelly bubbles :D

Asta ca sa vedeti ca nu stau degeaba :)))

Ladies and gents, va prezint rezultatele partiale ale indeletnicirilor mele din ultimul timp...:D:D

English version:

Ladies and gents, I am delighted to present the partial outcomes of my latest handcraftsy-creations.

Yes, I got into making 100% natural animal fat free soaps ...what a pity the internet doesn't smell :D, I am pretty proud of what turned out :D

Geometrics

This dress is a handmedown from grandma, and though my taste in fashion has evolved throughout the years, it is the one item in her wardrobe I've always fancied, ever since I was a kid. I guess it's because of the print. And the colours.
I have stacks of grandma skirts and dresses in my wardrobe,as exemplified here, here and here, and most of them need alterations, since they are too big for me. The same goes for this dress, but I've been putting this huge project on hold for various reasons, which turned out to be quite favourable. The size of this dress ended up being just right for my pregnant belly, and I've worn it a lot during this period. I'm glad I managed to shoot it eventually, it was my final blog-worthy outfit before giving birth (well, except for the one I wore when rushing to the hospital, but that doesn't count, it was something similar to this one , so it's already been posted :) ).


Composition:
Dress: handmedown from grandma
Cardigan: See by Chloe'
Boots: Hush Puppies
Earrings: made by me
Bangles: from a local boutique ( I have them in sooo many colours :D )
Sunnies: Solaris (from Paris)

too much blue can never kill you

2 necklaces i cropped up tonight...I still have to perform some cosmetic adjustments on them, so just a teaser 4 now :D:D


the dragon pendant is from a co-worker of mine, and the Egyptian hippo & scarabs are from the Louvre giftshop (the hippo was originally a key chain, and the scarabs..well I don't know what they were but I pierced them into beads :D)

Button Cuff : follow-up outfit

As I promised, here's the second outfit composed around the button cuff I made, again with basic white, red & black .




Composition:
Camisole: random
Shirt: Bianca (made in RO )
Leather Skirt: from mum
Shoes : Musette

Sisters (US & the sweaters)

I was home last weekend, for my mum's birthday, and I got my sister to pose for me in a sweater I made for her. She doesn't really like being photographed , but I managed to pull some shots (not really good-quality though, as I was using my bf's camera, and I'm not yet really familiar with it :D)


My sis is wearing the sweater I mentioned, a necklace that I made for her also and H&M jeans. Isn't she pretty :D:D:D?




I also made a similar sweater for me (actually mine was firstly done), here it is:

Composition:
Sweater: made by me
Leather Skirt: from mum
Belt: from dad
Shoes: Musette

Button Cuff

I know I've been kinda lazy in posting lately, but I'm sure gonna make up for it today:D.
So...here's what I've done yesterday:
















Tadaaaaa!! A fancifull-clowny-playfull button cuff :D. I love it ,but the ribbon adding gave me a couple of headaches yesterday...it just failed to curl the way I wanted it to . But hah! it couldn't resist my will/needle after all:D.

Here's also a quick outfit I put toghether to go with it, I will follow up with another later on :):):).
White, red and of course black being the strongest colours of the cuff, I made up the outfit around them.



Composition:
Tee: Rolling Stones
Skirt: Max&Co.
Boots: Formenterra
Disco earrings: handmedown from mum

Marni Bib Replik - Outfit# 2 - Punk

Aaaaand...here's outfit no.2, rather punk-ish than punk . It lacks a side trouser chain, which I somehow misplaced and was too lazy to look up ;).

Composition:
Shoes: Musette
Pants: DadaModa
Jean Vest: New Yorker
Tank: Triumph

Marni Bib Replik - Outfit# 1 - Hippie

Here's outfit no.1 that includes my version of the Marni bib.
I put up somewhat of a hippie look; and to pull it off, since the bib is in itself kind of overwhelming, i decided not to wear any other piece of jewelry, as it would have been visually distracting and disturbing.


Composition:
Tank : Triumph
Jean Vest: New Yorker
Skirt: Hippie Hippie Shake
Wedges : Charlotte Ronson
Belt: C&A

Enjoy:D

Kick Off

After pondering a while, i finally decided to start up a fashion blog. It will contain photos, music, videos, reviews , and so on. All personal photos are credited to my bf , except stated otherwise.

I decided to put up a DYI project as a first post. The idea of this project was inspired by TheGlamourai, courtesy of who i got these Marni side images of the original items.

So I am proudly presenting you with my result, made up of bits and pieces of old jewelry, part mine,part grandma's, part from my bf's mum (10x :D) ,some vintage brooches (including Givenchy and Giovanni) , as well as some new ones,etc, all pinned up on black velvet.

As you can see in the bellow images , the bib's decoration contains groups of inspirational themes such as DH Lawrence's 'Plumed Serpent' , Marcel Proust's 'A la recherche de temps perdu ', la belle epoque, ethnic influences, etc.












The item is theoretically really easy to make, but I must admit it took me almost a day to handcraft it, since I sewed all of it by hand and the original objects' layout on the bib changed several times:D.

I'm gonna be doing a couple of follow-up posts, with examples of outfits built for this opulent piece of jewelry, so stay tuned ;)).
