Phantasium & New Boots!

I had a great time at Phantasium with my boyfriend! Some friends joined us at Saturday and it was really nice to have my mum with me for once at Sunday. I now know exactly which underbust I want to buy! It's a black one with a white pinstripe. Thanks to a very nice lady from Realm of Darkness who helped me fit some underbusts, I now know my size for certain.

Anyway, as usual I barely have pictures, I just forget about taking pictures when I'm at an event, it doesn't seem important at all at the very moment. I only now realize I don't even have a picture of my complete outfit, since in the ones I do have, I'm already wearing my new boots (which are pure LOVE, see down below for a better picture!) so no pictures of my legwarmers. Oh well.

BTW! No editting, it seems no use with pictures of this awful quality.

And, last but most certainly not least! My new Boots!!!!!!

I've already been showing them off, I have only worn these boots since I bought them at Saturday. They make me smile. :)

Cheshire Cat Outfit & Phantasium

It's been a long few days. Wednesday I had this idea for an outfit for this weekend (a fantasy market named Phantasium in Eindhoven, my boyfriend and I are going both days). At Thursday I bought some fabric and started working on it. I'm going as the Cheshire Cat. To be honest, this idea was not at all inspired by the new Tim Burton movie (I haven't even seen that one yet, but I'm planning to!) I've always loved Alice in Wonderland (the original book is still the best!). The outfit isn't VERY special or complicated, I actually only made some assecories to go with some cloths I already own.

I made a pair of leg warmers, a pair of arm warmers, a tail, something to pull up my skirt a bit at one spot, a pair of cat ears on hair clips and a choker with a bell. Almost everything is striped, in blue and pink (I wanted blue and purple but the fabric shop I went to didn't have the fabric I wanted in purple :(). Ah, also, I finally painted a shirt! I already had the shirt (I need more.) and ideas, but for this outfit I came up with a better (well, bigger anyway) design so I just did that.

This is what the living room looked like:

And the freshly painted shirt:

I used my old little digital camera so the photographs aren't very good and very grainy.

I'll try to get a picture of the complete outfit this weekend, stay tuned for updates ;)
