Otakon Fashion Show

Recently, I went to Otakon which is an anime convention held in Baltimore, Maryland. I had the pleasure of meeting and taking a picture with both Mitsuba and Masumi Kano. They are both Lolita designers. I actually really liked Mitsuba's fashion design a lot better. I attended their fashion show and really enjoyed it. I love these shows and I really admired their style and where they get their inspiration from. I learned that Mitsuba got some of her inspiration from an anime called, Black Butler. I wasn't surprised, a lot of her work seem to have that kind of "black butler feel" to it. :P



Here are some pictures from the fashion show that I attended. I'm sorry, some of the pictures didn't turn out the way that I wanted them too, but I was working with my new camera. So I apologize. These are the pictures from some of Mitsuba's collection.

...and these are pictures from some of Masumi Kano's collection:



Starting Up Again


Hey everyone,
So it's been a while since the last time I've posted. I've kind of lost hope in doing more tutorials because I don't think my creativity is good enough, but after talking to some of my friends who are supporting me with this I have decided to start it up again. School starts up in a week for me so I won't have much time making tutorials, but I'm going to start posting pictures of my nails or make up ideas. When I have time during the winter break or summer break, I may do a tutorial. An old friend of mine broke the camera I use to do my tutorials, so I have to find a new way to do that. For now, I hope you enjoy my posts and pictures.
I've also gotten a new hair cut. My hair has changed a lot this year, but here's a close up picture of what it looks like. Anyway, I cut my own bangs which are just straight across bangs and I had my friend cut a bob. You can't really see it in this picture, but hopefully I'll upload a better of it in the future.





On another note, I decided to paint my nails. As you can see the picture, I wanted to do something bright and colorful, and I thought the colors looked nice with each other. I guess I was inspired by cotton candy? (: It's a bit messy, but It doesn't matter. At first, I wanted to add the white/silver crackle to it, but I liked the sparkles. Maybe next time I'll add the crackle and see what it looks like. Enjoy.
