Hello everyone! Here’s a photo shoot that I did of the blouse that I was telling you about. There’s this really beautiful, old abandoned church that’s over by my house and it’s a really cool place for doing photo shoots. There’s this old lady who lives right beside it, and she came out right while I was in the middle of the photo shoot. She took one look at me, stared for a second, and then went right back inside her house. Haha I feel bad, I must have scared her off.
^Check out this cute little guy ^_^
I made my blouse using the Built by Wendy 4112 pattern. I made a few adjustments to the sleeves and neck tie. The leather shorts actually used to be pants that I got from Goodwill on the 50% off day.
I also made the sunglasses that I’m wearing. The frames are cut out from the cover of an old hardbound book. I then painted the frames orange and took clear finger nail polish for a protective layer. The lenses are cut out of a two liter pop bottle. They’re a bit flimsy, but still fun to wear :)
I hope that you all have a lovely day!!
LOVE IT!
ReplyDeleteGe-orgeous. Your photos are also lovely x
ReplyDeleteoh i love photos on the stairs.. so lovely.. and i would never ever even think of making sunglasses or any type of glasses..
ReplyDeleteLove this! What a pretty print for your shirt. And that is genius, turning leather pants into shorts...why have I never thought of that?!
ReplyDeleteI love abandoned churches! My mom is always worried I'm gonna get kidnapped while doing a photo shoot at one. I love your blouse, so pretty. I love all of your photos. Can't wait to see more!

Amazing, Esther! Your blouse is stunning, and what a great idea you had by revamping pants into shorts...thus making them more modern!
ReplyDeleteI'm astounded that you made those sunglasses! You're seriously a genius, girl ;)

Esther,
ReplyDeleteI just wanted to say how amazing all of your creations are. I discovered your masking tape dress the other day and was overwhelmed with how beautiful it was. I have since discovered this blog and all of your other wonderful creations. You are a true inspiration and so talented. Congratulations on your award and I look forward to reading about all your future creations. You will definately go far! By the way, cute blouse and I love your red dress, plus it made me smile when I read you take all your own photos as this is exactly the way I take photos of my designs too! It's fun being your own photographer too isn't it?!
