Jason Wu for Target: Front Flap Satchel + Pictures

Hey everyone! Sorry for the lack of posts. I've been so busy with job searching and school and everything. However, I was able to get the Jason Wu for Target bag! It was such a hassle. It was pretty chaotic on Target's facebook page. Random people were posting stuff like "OMGGOTTHEKITTYSCARF WHEEEEEEBLAHBLAHBLAH" even when theoretically, only 3 dresses were online. Luckily, I go to a school with an excellent computer science program. My friend wrote a piece of code for me in Perl and it basically sifted through all of Target's links until it found the bag. I'm so glad she did because then I was able to buy the bag at 2 am. Everything was officially open at 3 am. Everything also sold out when I woke up again at 10 am. As of right now, you can't buy Jason Wu for Target online. Well, at least I can't for some reason haha. 


Moral of the story: Be a CS major. 

 I really dislike how in all the lookbooks, this bag looks like it's made of white and black pleather. It's actually white canvas and black pleather. I mean, all the other bags were *clearly* not leather. Why was this one photographed to look like pleather then? 


Verdict: I like, but I don't think that it was worth 50. However I'm not going to sell it on ebay for like 200 dollars. I think that it's ridiculous. Honestly Target, you need to make a restriction on how many people can buy in stores and online. It stops vultures from buying everything in the store and then selling it for 4 times the price on Ebay. The whole fucking point of these "X designer for Target" lines is so that it's affordable for everyone- not for those who wait in line at 8 am and then buy out the entire corner of the store. 

OOTD :Furry and Warm

I've been really busy with school lately. I have 6 classes. I should feel tired, but I actually feel exhilarated and alive! Here is an old OOTD

Fur Vest- DIY
Dress- H&M
Belt- DIY
Tights- Macys
Shoes- Amazon

DIY: Rhinestone (or strassing) a shirt

Let's DIY a rhinestone shirt! Usually when I think of rhinestones, I think of small toddlers and preteen, disney channel, hannah montana crap in K-Mart clearance bins. However they can be super chic too. 


Finished Product:

You need:

• Rhinestones- Got mine off ebay. I got 2000, but i used like 1000. 
• Tshirt- Old from Hanes
• A design printed on a sheet of paper
• Jewel-It by Aleene's

Step 1: Cut out your design.

Step 2: Draw your design on your tshirt. Also, you might want to take the time to mark out what colors you want to use, where you want to rhinestone in blahblahblah. 

Step 3: Glue on Rhinestones with Jewel-It

Halfway done! 

I have to do an OOTD with this shirt sometime :)

Knitting Heart Mittens

I *finally* finished this pair of heart mittens for myself. phew!

So I also went to Walgreens and OMG I GOT THE L'OREAL INFALLIABLE EYESHADOW IN BRONZED TAUPE. I will put up swatches and a review later this week. I'll get it up after I return to CMU on Sunday. 

DIY: Baby Doll Dress with Peter Pan Collar

First time making a dress with no pattern with a collar! The skirt came from another old project that I did in 8th grade. The top is broadcloth from Joann Fabric. I basically cut out a tank top pattern and stuck it on. Collar is made from another old project circa 9th grade. My needle was too big for the fabric, hence the crappy hems on the armholes lol. 


If you don't make your own "pattern" (I use that term VERY loosely. For me, it's like rectangles with holes), then use a tank top and a skirt, stitch together and voila, new baby doll dress. Hot. 

Again, as modeled by my lovely sister. It is a little lopsided, but that's a okay!
