First off, let me just say that my current mood is as black as my lipstick.
Stephen Gately from Brit group Boyzone passed away yesterday at a very young age of 33. And it's NOT right. Just not. I swear, I spent a few good minutes earlier getting teared up while watching Boyzone videos. It may be totally irrelevant to some of you, but well, you know, I was a prepubescent 12-year-old once who religiously wrote fan letters and ruined cassette tapes from overplaying Stephen's singing parts... so yeah, he played an integral part in my childhood. Stephen, you will be missed.:(
Okay, moving on. I adored this silver bubble dress during its heyday, but of course that has long ago passed and this dress has just been sitting in my closet for quite a while. I actually love the material a lot, so I was really rocking my brain on what to do with it. I nipped the bubble garter off and voila- tank top! As some of you might know, I fell in love with Kimberly Ovitz's "business in the front, party at the back" cutout pieces for Fall, so I just took some spare leather strips and nuked the back. Totally love the result, but be prepared to do some sewing. Good luck!
The Maison Michel-inspired Bunny Ears are for my friend Aoi. Have fun with them!
I hope you all had a great weekend. I will be announcing my giveaway winner TOMORROW. Wheeeee.:)
