the future is the way of that
I didn’t post February’s artwork because it was just one piece and not that impressive except to other Free! fans, but now that I’ve finished March, I thought I could make a post of both! This is for the Rinrei week on Tumblr, see my post with links here! The prompt for this day was …
Happy International Gyaru Day! I didn’t know there was such a holiday, but gyaru Lizzie from the UK posted about it today on their blog and I thought it was perfect. October 9, or 10/9 stands for shopping center Shibuya 109 in Tokyo where most of the trendy gyaru-related brand shops are located, makes sense. …
Here is my coord from the Okashicon at San Japan Japanese fashion mixer last weekend. The theme was “Spooky Sweetness,” and as Metamorphose Temps de Fille was the Japanese guest of honor, I borrowed a jumperskirt from my bestie that was spookier than any Meta dress I already owned. I crafted/decorated the hat and earrings …
I wanted to do a longform content post about slow fashion, mending, refashioning from already existing stuff, and all such activities that help reduce consumption and waste. I love to do these things because I have been poor and/or eco-conscious ever since I was a kid, so my house is full of junk and scraps …
Happy belated International Lolita Day! I always forget about the summer lolita days unless someone reminds me ahead of time lol. I did technically wear a lolita cutsew yesterday, so that counts as participation right? Today I wanted to show off a very quick coord of my Atelier Pierrot plus size jumperskirt in purple x …
One of the most difficult things about fashion is wanting to look extremely good with minimal effort or minimal cost and maximum comfort.

People looking …
As promised, I took some quick photos of my last 2 sewn projects, the budget Juliette et Justine butterfly dress and the astrology map otome blouse. I wanted to do casual looks instead of the elaborate over-the-top coords that I would only wear for a special occasion, sorta. No wigs or even styled hair, no …
After exactly 2 years of procrastinating, I finished this navy blue and white astrology map blouse from Otome no Sewing volume 14. Why did it take so long for a relatively simple pattern? Well because the fabric I chose actually was the worst choice for a short sleeve blouse in a warm climate, but I …
The first post of the month should be my bullet journal artwork but uhh… I’m still working on it lol. Here is a different type of post, my cosplay plans for the next 2 years! I forgot if I already mentioned it, but I started to cosplay (anime and videogames and other media and culture) …
I am back with a project that was supposed to have been finished a month ago lol. If you even care, I have an ongoing issue/injury with my left hand (the hand I need to do crafts and everything else with) since November, so even if I did remember to work on my 2024 goals …
