Leader of the Pack

I've just finished 1st year of my fashion design course, which was probably the hardest thing I've ever had to do but I feel like I've learnt so much, super excited to sew more clothes now I'm on my break. My final project was called Leader of the Pack, and is inspired by a combination vintage sport uniforms and the hyper feminine style of girl groups and girl gangs that were around in the 60s.




We had to design 10 outfits and make one of them, I chose a cheerleading uniform-style 2 piece outfit with a pleated skirt and top with heart details and heart shaped buttons, which is probably not as well sewn as it could have been but I got very little sleep on my final week...

Glitter Brows


Since this photoset started going around tumblr I've been getting messages about how to do glitterbrows, so I'm finally making a tutorial. I've seen other people's how to glitter brow but my way is the best for if you only have 1 brush and want to spend under $10, bargain glitter brows for people who aren't very good at makeup.
Most of the photos are a lil bit out of focus sorry..



I use Snazaroo glitter gel, which you can get from eckersley's or find on ebay for like $8 in loads of different colours. Just use any eyebrow brush mine isn't even for eyebrows it might get glitter stuck in it so don't use ur fave


My glitter has dried out a bit so it didn't stick as well as it usually does, but you pretty much just scoop up some gel and paint it on your eyebrows, mine are pretty dark and it covers them up completely.
  
 You'll need to do a few layers of glitter to reach the full glitter brow potential
If you go over your desired eyebrow shape just scape off any excess with your fingernail
 Mine are a bit uneven but no one will notice because they look so sparkly 
I definitely want to see any attempts inspired by this so tag #punkpuke or #makemeloco

BAM BAM

I printed this Flintstones-inspired fabric a few weeks ago and I finally used it to make a tote bag!

I love the stud texture and it kinda matches my new hair too, I think I'm going to make a matching dress to go with it.
