This is my take on the Harajuku style of Japan. I wanted to create a fun, cute look. I started with a bright colored tutu and then added a cute butterfly shirt. Then I added knee high socks which add a school girl feel to the look. Finally I added a ton of jewelry and bows in my hair. All together they create a cute, young and fun look that (hopefully) makes you smile and feel young and free.
The first picture is a dress that I got a bunch of years ago at a yard sale. The second picture is the “after” photo. I tried the dress on recently and found out it didn’t really fit me so I turned it inside out and modified it to fit me. I love to take clothes that don’t fit me correctly and change them up so they look good. It creates a wonderful challenge. This dress reminds me of a burlesque/saloon girl dress, sexy yet confident.
This is a basic sundress which I fell in love with. Unfortunately it was too small on me so I deiced to cut down the back and add lacing and then I added a black skirt underneath. By adding lacing to this dress I have turned into a sexy sundress instead of just a simple sundress.
