sewing update

Yes I know I have not many interesting things to say right at the moment but I try to finish the dresses as fast as possible because I hate having to sew at the night before the event and just skipping everything that is not really neccesairy.

Anyways I finished the underskirts (plus one I finished and then decided not to use but let's not talk about that) and today I started on the Kimonotop which was easier than I thought! Without further talking I give you the pics!

This is how far I've gotten next thing I have to do is add the ruffles :3

As you know I already wore the black and the beige one :3 still need to find something to match the green one but I am positive that this will happen next week or this weekend.

Right now Lyza and I have decided to watch one Music Monday Video from Eatyourkimchi each day and oh god if you are into Kpop and never watched anything by them do it. I love their humor.

Also after I told you to watch Super Junior video (which I still love SO MUCH) I felt bad for not reccing Infinite's Paradise. I love the video but the song isn't as catchy as Be Mine but still please give them as much love as you can.



Anything else? Yes I thought about reccing other stuff here that I find awesome would you like that? And the Nanowrimo is coming up (well yes it is still a whole month until it really happens but time likes to fly) and today I found my idea for what I will write this year :D I'm still working on some details but I will tell you when I figured it out!

That's all for now I think :3

Whoot one of the best weekends OFF ALL TIME

No seriously it also one of the best conventions i've ever been to even though we didn't wear something new and shiny i felt good and we spontanously decided to go back there on sunday as well.

I will later this week make a bigger post with better pictures but for now have a preview of what is to come :3

Photobucket

On saturday we wore Dalmatian again (like my previous post already suggested XD) but this time I wore the Youngwon wig and Lyza wore the Jisu Wig plus hat and rocked it way more than I did :/

No the glasses weren't there for the real photos but Lyza is blind without them and I think I look better with glasses on :3

Photobucket

On Sunday I wore the Care Bears JSK for the first time and even though I never thought I would combine it with black I liked how it came out! Lyza wore my highwaist dark red skirt plus my new shoes from Primark! Also these are the Minty Mix Wigs we ordered like half a year ago :D Normally I am not confident with my makeup but I loved what I did that day!

Photobucket

This is an extra because I met up with Hayan00 and she is such a cutie pie! Thank you for spending so much time with us!

I'll leave you with that!

Love

Bow wow wow revived

Okay so the Connichi is only two days away for me and I'm starting to get the convention nervousness. The cosplays are finished and everything I won't be wearing when I leave is in a nice bag already. All I need to do is get the wigs and put them there as well.

Photobucket

Tonight I rewatched at least ten live performances from Dalmatian and man I once again understood why I used to love these boys so much but I didn't like their comeback and there is nothing to watch with them so I feel my love dying and Infinite, Beast and Block B taking over their place.

I have a few things I want to talk about and nothing connects with the other but anyways I will just write it down one after another.

The second this is that my best friend made a Blog and you should totally check it out because it's her personal online scetch book and she's really really skilled (even though I want her to draw more stuff for kpop XD)

Once again I started writing fanfiction and I even finished one yesterday but now I have to reread it and am too lazy for that :/ However I should probably do this after I finished this entry :D

And then something that actually happened today:

I FOUND THE MOST PRECIOUS SHOES IN THE WORLD
Photobucket

I am so deeply in love you cannot believe it *3* The heels are 13cm which gives me a hight from about 1.90m but shushhh they are too awesome and lovely and god I'm gushing over them they will lie in bed next to me tonight while I sleep :3

Okay that's all I know I still have like three posts I promised to make and I will come to them I swear! I already tumbled more wa-lolita inspirations and the zoo pictureas are on my pc I just need to look though them!

Also I need Block B pictures on my wall to join the huge Infinite and The Boss poster but I am unable to find good pics I could print out D: Maybe I should continue looking for them tomorrow.

Anyways now I'm just rambling.

Love,

Maren

Okay this is kind of sad because I just realized I haven't updated in nearly a month and I am sorry to everyone who checks on my blog TT____TT

I went to Lyzas place a few days after my last post and stayed there till the end of August and after that she came home with me and we stayed here so yeah over this I somehow just forgot everything else.

However now I'm back and one of the first places I check is DIY-Fairykey and what do my eyes see? My tutorial got posted and I magically gained some new followers! That makes me so happy that I want to run to my sewing machine just to post more :3

Right now I can't though because next weekend will be a Con weekend and since I just realized this about ... three days ago and we just decided to wear the Dalmatian clothes again (because we never did take good pics of them D:) I'm just fixing these up.

But! After this the next big meet up will be the Japanday in October and I've been planning to go there in a Wa-Loli outfit for most of the year. So! Next project will be two Wa-Loli dresses and I am so excited about this!!!

I should make a ref post about this as soon as I get my handsewing finished (yay for setting goals and hopefully reaching them :D!)

And beacause talking made me this excited already I will leave you again now to finish the second pants and get started on the jackets today hopefully.

Love,
Maren

ps. Lyza, my mom and I went to two zoos in the past week and I will probably also share pictures of these if they turn out any good wheheeee!
