Behind the Scenes: Creative Week

This past week has been MAJORLY busy.

I had a jam packed week of photoshoots in Miami and Wellington, and then during the weekend, I was attending Megacon in Orlando.

This post is picture heavy so I'll be putting all of it under a cut (which I normally do anyways :3)

(I'll be making a separate post for Megacon even though I didn't take many pictures. :/ I forgot my camera in my hotel room and it's about a 5-10 minute walk that I didn't feel like taking. xD)

Deco Lolita collaboration shoot~

Second outfit that Chubi from Elegy Clothing sent me to shoot in~

This outfit was definitely the most fun for me between the two because it was a 4 in 1!

It comes with a salopette which can be switched from skirt to bloomer-y shorts, and the top part also comes off so you can wear just the blouse with either/or as well!

This style is really adorable and I love it so much...but definitely not as much as dresses with the cupcake shape. I said a while ago that I'm a huge fan of sweet, hime, everything girly, etc and it's mainly because I LOVE pink and they have tons of cupcake shapes so I get the best of both of the things that I love! x3

This outfit was shot in studio since I can't really think of any locations that would be suitable for this outfit.

Since I received the outfit, I was racking my brain for a way to wear my wig and I just couldn't think of anything. I really wish I had some super curly wigs or maybe a split one or even some pastel action. But alas,  haven't purchased any new wigs in about a year. Must change this soon. I'll be buying new circle lenses soon so maybe I'll buy wigs then...

ANYWAYS

The day of the shoot I had to put together a super quick hair style and decided upon...

THE GIANT PURPLE BOW IS SO ADORABLE! I kept telling Chubi how much I liked it because it's so big and cute. :3
The wig. Yes. That's what I was talking about. I ended up just simply braiding part of the wig and eventually tied it into ponytails.

I was originally going to make two braided buns on each side...but I over estimated how much hair was on this wig, haha.

I purchased a pair of shoes at wal-mart since I was tired of wearing the same white mary-janes but they didn't have my exact size so I had to get a 5 in kid sizes. I really don't understand why kids have such big shoes sizes. x__x I normally wear a size 6 in women's so the fact that girls shoes 5 is too big? (I wear a 4) They should just switch the adult sizes if their feet get that big. T__T

Oldschool Black and White Lolita shoot

PRESENTING, ONCE AGAIN, another collaboration with Elegy Clothing. :3

This time, Chubi sent me 2 outfits~ The first one is (obviously) an old school styled black and white coord.

The more I collaborate with Chubi, the more I'm realizing how unprepared I am to accessorize these looks. I don't mean headdresses or anything like that since Chubi normally supplies those as well, but I'm talking about wigs and shoes.
Now, I'm a wig addict. I have over 20 wigs but even with my wig collection, I'm running out with things that match! I guess it doesn't help that some of my wigs are similar colors and styles x___x. Blech. Shoes I'm not TOO big on. I do love me some heels and I have a lot...but almost none of them are loliable. I have a pair of white platform maryjanes (which I have been using in all of my shoots so far xD) but that's about it. Luckily for this outfit I have a pair of black wedges that I've never worn...>>

Bur, UHG. This makes me so frustrated because I know I'm going to have to shell out money to update  my wig and shoe collection and it kills meee. (I'm super cheap if people didn't realize. LOL) I love shopping at flea markets and thrift stores and to me "on sale" means take an additional 50% off of 50%. xD
I LIKE KEEPING MY MONEY AND SPENDING IT AT THE SAME TIME. x_____x

OH YEAH. Did I mention my birthday just passed? Wooooo. T__T
I still don't have a drivers license...Someone should just shoot me. I'm so useless. x_x

ANYWAYS. THE OUTFITS. YES.
Today I received the package filled with lovely clothing~
Chubi always wraps the clothing in tissue paper and I always feel bad when I tear into it...>> I like opening things...xD I'm always so surprised at how much stuff she can fold into these boxes! xD

I tried on the outfits right away! 8D

This is the oufit right out of the box with a petti under it. :3

Since it's an old school coord, Chubi suggested I keep the hair as natural as possible so I put on a curly brown wig and tied them into pigtails. It's super adorable but I also think that with the long dark hair there's was...too much dark?
So I tried on a blonde wig. x3

This wig has been with me for almost 4 years and I can tell it's getting old, haha. But it still looks lovely.

Here's some photo spam of my face :D

Shoot day is Tomorrow/Today! (I'm writing this on the 18th...but will probably finish it on the 19th which is when the shoot for this look is. Lol)

So THIS is actually how I wore my hair xD

FACESSSSSSSSSSSS.

MAN. I HATE MOSQUITOS! BUT THEY LOVE ME. D:

All that above? Yeah I lied. I ended up shooting this outfit twice. LOL

DONE
