Man I wish science would hurry up and perfect cloning! There are too many things I have to do in one day and I don't think I can do it all by my self. I need at least two of me!

Just imageine; my clone would handle all my school work, set up my appointments, do all the things you see on TV when you hear someone talking about having a clone, while I focus on my designs and this blog. I would make life a whole lot easier.

My clone would also be my mannequin, so I could make my own close and not worring about how they would fit on me once I finnished.

We would be a hit at parties. And wouldn't we just look great together?

Shirt to Skirt

Like this look?

Well, the skirt was originally a boy's long-sleeved, button-down dress shirt.

Before

After

It took me a few weeks (especially for the pleating around the waist but with my mom's help it all worked out) but the end results were well worth it; don't you agree?

Fresh Start

It’s the start of another “new” school year- meaning another year of “fresh starts” and wanting new things for the school year we either don’t need or already have; But that’s why fashion is the best, right? Right!

So the thing that makes this year different for me than years previous is that I am a senior. Yes a credited sophisticated senior finally coming up in the world and now 1 step closer to pursuing my dreams & goals.

However, the one thing that never changes is every year back to school shopping is always extremely annoying. I can never find what I’m looking for, sizes are normally too big, too small (which is something of an eyebrow-raiser) or entirely too pricey for no reason what so ever. So this year, I’ve decided to do something different with my life, and my wardrobe. This year I will be sporting many of my own creations- from reconstructed clothing to handmade pieces which are one-of- a-kind and exclusively mine ;) From head to toe at least one piece from my outfit will crafted by me.

Enjoy darlings!!!!!!

Prints Prints Prints!

Lately I've been having prints on the brain. But not just any prints; that old Victorian fabric that is used on couches and curtains.

I have also been obsessing over lace fabric! Uh huh! My newest designs involve both of these fabrics.
Can't wait to see 'em?
As soon as I find this fabric and bring my designs to life, I will début my creations.
Till then,

Ta!

On Sunday I got an e-mail from Doe Deere personally!!!!!

I was so excited because she got back to me so quickly and she gave me some good advice for my blog.

She has been my inspiration for fashion, blogging, and just getting out there and trying new things. Her bright and colorful "fantasy" fashion sense, her attitude toward trying things that are new and out of the ordinary and her very secure sense of self made me reflect on my personal style, and what I think about other people's opinions. I realized that if I want to be a designer I cant let my vision take a back seat to the ideas of others; and that's pretty much what The Illegal Midget is about. It is about showing people my idea of fashion.

Now, I have even more optimism for this blog more than I ever!
THANKS DOE!!!!!
