Tell me, my dear, can a heart still break once it’s stopped beating? . . Here she is!!! I very nearly didn’t follow through in doing my own version of The Corpse Bride because I saw @lacifay ans @rachel_maksy do theirs so spectacularly. But I’d already gotten the wig and have been filming this lookbook for a month, so here we are. I was terrified of doing this, because I had to upsize and remake this beautiful vintage gown and I didn’t want to ruin it. Thank goodness it all worked out! So, keep an eye on my channel because hopefully later today I’ll be posting the full lookbook! (Thanks @sukofilms for being my Instagram husband!)
It’s that time of year, when we take family phot It’s that time of year, when we take family photos and spend more time photoshopping the smiling faces into one shot because there’s no way they all smile at the same time 😂 swipe for the funniest expression from Irene ever.
When Beauty Killed the Beast 🥀 ahhhh! This was When Beauty Killed the Beast 🥀 ahhhh! This was super last minute for collaborating with @slystyley on our twisted fairytales but it might be my favorite! I love Belle, but what if... she didn’t fall in love? What if it wasn’t a sweet tale? So here we are. Me at sunset in our field covering my hand with red lipstick and wearing no shoes, hoping the concept works as well as I want it to (and I think it did)
Someone told me I look like Lydia Deetz and I’m Someone told me I look like Lydia Deetz and I’m not even mad. (This beautiful 1950s dress is from the hoarder house that @lacifay went to! Isn’t it gorgeous?! The grape brooch came attached!)
Hello friends. How are you? Genuinely, how are you Hello friends. How are you? Genuinely, how are you doing? I have been in a weird space lately, and I credit a lot of that to the pandemic. I just want you to remember that you are surviving and you are amazing whatever you’re doing. I don’t have any wise words. But I see you. I’m here if you need to talk. ❤️
Well friends, I got ten days into the #30dayvintag Well friends, I got ten days into the #30dayvintagechallenge and hit a huge depression/anxiety funk. So I’m being kind to myself and taking a break. Here’s the concept for a project I’m working on that I’m excited about — and I didn’t spend money on any of it! This next month or so I’m striving to do a no-spend and make some fall clothes for myself from the huge stash of fabrics and patterns I own. This will be the first. Lady Sherlock Lounges, I call it. 😜
I’m sorry if you’re tired of my Twisted Alice I’m sorry if you’re tired of my Twisted Alice but I thought I’d share the photo process of how I made myself look headless. It’s simple in theory, really! Photo one is the body shot. I had to make sure my hair was all behind my shoulders to get a clean image, and this was most important for hand positions. I wish I’d put my other foot out but oh well. Little things. Image two is important! When one is holding a head, hair has to be behind the head, right? If I hadn’t held the wig out I would have had a lot harder time placing my own head and photoshopping it realistically in the air. This also helped with semi realisim. The last photo is getting my head in the right space and it felt awkward as heck (and this is a slightly different shot than the one I used) but it worked! Last step, get a copyright free bloody neck stump to put on your cut off neck, it’ll help sell it. Simple all in all but it took a bit of thinking it through and a fair knowledge of photoshop to make it happen. Also, shoot with a tripod so your images are all in the exact same spot. (Go back if you want to see the finished image I shared yesterday!
We’re all mad here ✨ . . . My second Twisted P We’re all mad here ✨ . . . My second Twisted Princesses look with @slystyley here you goooo! What if Alice never escaped Wonderland? I couldn’t decide which one I liked best so have them both. And let me know which one YOU like? Mega thanks to my husband @sukofilms for extra lighting and manning the tripod since I couldn’t hold my clicker.
Day 13 of the #30dayvintagechallenge is another @k Day 13 of the #30dayvintagechallenge is another @karinadresses pretty, this Cece in Carnations, which has pockets so obviously I love it. I’ve basically been living in Karina Dresses over the weekend, it was chaos and I’m exhausted. But yay, a new week is here and it’s time to reset and work on new things!
