Momma Did Well

Fashion/Style has been something I was born with. Or maybe my momma just loved dressing me in hype clothes and so my passion started when I was a little toddler. Either way, I love it. I try to put my free time at home towards using my talents/hobbies into action. I started this little project a few months ago and it's been sitting on my mannequin for too long. So I decided I am going to get back on it and finish this before another few months goes by again.

Lately I have been very inspired by Japanese fashion and buying Vivi magazines from the Japanese marketplace [Mitsuwa] down the street from my house. I love that they wear whatever they want, of course still looks good & makes sense, without caring what other people think. At least that's what goes through my head as I go through their fashion statements. I mean, why do we have to get dressed up in our favorite pieces of clothing only for a special occasion? Maybe I just want to look cute and fashionable because I'm in the mood to.

Back to the point of my post, my latest project is a black dress with some braided fabric wrapped around just under the bust. I'm still adding and taking away as I go on with finishing it.

[not taking credit for the necklace, just in love with it]
