My fashion progress... From tomboy to black and white girly girl ♪

Evening bloggy ♪

It's quite interesting to see how my outfits, makeup - my style in general - has changed since I first started getting into street fashion. I noticed when I was cleaning my folders, so... here's a big picture post ᕦ(o⌣o*)ᕤ


First of all... I don't even know what to write because it's kind of weird looking back at this time, haha. I stopped dressing in visual kei clothes, and this is what happened. The Bieber tomboy (just happened to be at the same time as I came out of the closet. Coincidence? Hm).

These are only face shots, but I was still very self-conscious about my body and didn't feel comfortable in this style, to be honest (シ_ _)シ 

Just thought I'd show these as some sort of "before" shots. On to the change I was talking about! 


Last autumn: First pics of myself I posted on tumblr (*ノ・ω・) 
Started wearing more japanese brands again; like HELLCATPUNKS, Algonquins and SUPER LOVERS.





Winter/spring: This is around the time I started to slooooowly embrace my more girly side. The pigtails is what started it. Seriously. I was still very into visual and oshare kei (which I still am but don't wear as frequently) and these are some of my fav outfits even now ♪ 







Spring: still boyish, but with the wigs came the false lashes, lenses and girlier makeup...



Still spring: Getting close to where I am now! Tumblr was affecting my fashion more and more. I LOVE this pastel goth style that's trending now, and I started taking inspiration from my dashboard. 

Skeleton tights, round sunglasses, star eyebrows, creepers... (。・ω・。) 






Spring/early summer: This is when I found "my" style, I think. The pic at the top is what did it. More and more black and white outfits, more and more trending tumblr inspiration. And nowadays...



Now: Black and white invasion. 

I almost exclusively base my oitfits on black and white clothes now. I was afraid to at first, because I thought "black and white is kind of boring, isn't it? No variety". But I think I look different from day to day, even though it's mostly black and white, so I proved myself wrong there. I must say I love dressing like this (゜u ゜) 

Black and white and something pastel-ish to stand out from the rest is what I go for~!

The devil horns, these glasses and my spikey headband has become my favorite accessories. All things I could never imagine wearing just six months ago! It's fun seeing how quickly my style has developed to what I'm wearing today. 

Hmm I wonder what I'll look like six months from now? 

Well that's it for this long post, goodnight, sleep tight and dream sweet dreams! Or just shut up and go sleep like a log (。・ω・。)ノ♡

Storenvy opened ♪

www.irosgarden.storenvy.com

So I'm selling some headbands here.

I don't know why I'm so nervous all of a sudden. I guess because so many people asked, I felt really excited and happy while making the headbands I'm selling... And now when I've been going on and on about this for so long, I'm afraid to be dissappointing on pretty much all levels, prices, look, colours. Just thinking too much haha ( *`; ω ;´) let's hope I'm not dissappointing anyone.

Anyway. Spikey headbands will be 39 USD. Which is basically material costs since I think any more than 39 USD would be too much.

Now I'm going to drink lots of tea and calm down. Wishing everyone a good night and coming day. Peace out♥

(notice now that my skin looks really dark on this pic too. Bad light is bad in my kitchen, haha)

A preview/info post about my spikey friends!

Finally finished the last details today ♪

Now, since this is my first trial-collection of headbands, I only made 7. But! Since the response I've gotten has been so positive, I've ordered more material and will be able to sell more in the near future. 


Next batch will be bigger, I promise. 

Here are the styles I have for now (ノ´ー`)ノ


White Mix x Black
Two styles of white roses, two styles of black roses~
Made two of these.


Matte White x Black
Basically the same as the Mix White, except that all the white roses are identical.
Made two of these.


Peach pink x Black
I really like this one ヽ(;▽;)ノ Personally, I think it would look great with brown hair!
Made two of these.


Glossy Pink x Black 
Only difference from Peach Pink is the roses, again. 
Made one of these!

All roses are handsewn and as for the rest of the crafting, a magician never reveals her secret~! 

The marketplace I've used is storenvy. I tried making a purchase, and it was crazy easy. You just register your address and all that, then pay through paypal and I will send a parcel your way the minute I see the order. 

Will post a link to the store on pretty much all sites I'm on and update this post as soon as I've launched the shop. This is just a preview thingy I made since I wanted to show what I've made~

Now I'll work on devil horns until more material has arrived. 

Would also like to say thank you to all of those who has messaged me and cheered me on while working on this project 
(`; ω ;´) I really can't thank you enough, it means so much to me. I've always wanted to do a bigger project and share it like this, but I've never really had the guts, haha. Thank you for encouraging me! ♥ 

Soooo much love ♥ xoxo

Goodnight picture~ or something like that.

Blogspot has changed a lot since I last used it (。ノω\。)゚ I'm having trouble finding blogs to follow, haha. Feel internet-handicapped or something.

Give it time, give it time...
And once again I'm blogging before bed. Since I can't figure out how to post gifs either, here's a non-moving goodnight-wave! (`•ω•´)

Today's tale: some dead boxes and an LSD kitty.


Today, my boss took me out back to two containers filled with cardboard boxes and told me to “go nuts”. 

So I basically spent an hour kicking and jumping on boxes and got paid for it.
Wonder if my boss sees that as money well spent?


Especially since I'm hired to scoop icecream for kids and etc.

To be fair, the shop hasn't opened yet though, so murdering boxes is just what I'm doing until everything is ready. Can’t wait, really, it’s quite lonely out here by my summer house and it’s nice to talk to people. Can’t complain about being able to earn money just by being polite and scooping icecream for German tourists and snobby Stockholmers (like myself) on countryside safari either. 

So going nuts, jumping on boxes and then dying in front of the sims 3, completely exhausted, that’s my day.




Next mission is putting together outfits for a coming fashion show and spam internet and random friends to get help deciding which one to wear, but I think I’ll leave that for tomorrow. I already have one in mind though… I would love to wear my LSD space cat shirt and my orb, they look so nice together don't they~♪

Anyways. Ah I’m really tired now… Why am I always blogging right before bed?

And why am I always going to bed the same hour as my youngest cousins, seriously.

Goodnight! (ゝ。∂)
