Hold your breath!

Hello lovelies,

Today I finally started on the patterns I need for my underbust corset, that certaintly did take a long time, right? I'm so glad I started, it was about time. Right now, I cut out my patterns in a scrap fabric, tommorow I'll sew them together to see if the patterns I've drawn were right, I mean, you never know! If they turn out right, I'll make another sample for fitting, and after that I'll make the real one. I hope it turns out to be less work than I think it will be...

Although I am a quite experienced seamstress, making a corset was something totally different, especially this pattern. I have got a patten which I could've used as well, but it wouldn't work for my body, I wouldn't be able to create the dramatic curves I want. I have a naturally curvy body, so drafting the patterns was a challenge, because I need a corset that leaves my bone-y hips alone and cinches my waist more, to create a wasp-waist instead of my usual hourglass figure.

Don't you just lóve my pink socks? I do, they're só Goth and só Witchy!

Stay tuned for another update on this Witch's Brew!

Legend of Epona

I - FUCKING - PASSED!!!

-Ahem- I mean...

Hello dears,

I am very pleased to anounce that I have graduated, and I will be going to the art academy in September! I'm so happy and relieved! I'm going to have a grande party to celebrate it.

I am also very pleased to anounce that my horse is a true supermodel! Every picture we took with her was stunning... Well, okay, almost every picture, there were derp-pictures, and stunning pictures, and nothing inbetween. Why taking pictures of my horse? Well, I had a Legend of Zelda photoshoot, so Janneke's name was changed into Epona for one evening. Here are some of the results;

Warming her up myself so she would hold her temper whilst shooting.




















I hope you enjoyed them, there are some more to come up after editing them.

With love,

Mad Teaparty

Hello dears,

How are you all doing? I haven't updated for so long! I have lived quite a boring life for a while, and I don't want to bother you lovelies with dull and useless blog-updates, so I decided to wait for a while.

This week was a truly awesome week! I had TWO Teaparties, one as a promotion model, and the other one with the lolita-community. Both were a lot of fun and I've had a truly splendid time!

The first Teaparty, last Thursday, was in the middle of a big city, we were promoting some sort of Fashion Week which was coming up there. We were seated in super-high chairs at a super-high table, so it was a real high-tea. It was really hot that day, so I decided to take a risk and I did not wear socks, panties or anything like that, I just can't handle heat well, if I get too warm I get a rash all over my body. In my opinion it looked fine, and for the other lolita's; Don't get your bloomers in a bunch about it, I still wore my bloomers ;-) Here are some pics;

The dress looks shorter than it is in reality.
When I stand normally  the dress covers up my knees.















And here are the pictures, or well, I don't have them all, here's an outfit shot of what I wore to the other teaparty. I am in love with my floral dress, and all the lolita's complimented me on it, I was so flattered.
Also, Thursday I get to hear wether I have passed my exams or not. If I passed, I can officially call myself an Art Academy student, and I finally, after six years, leave my dull secondary schoollife behind me.

With love,

Chaotic Witch
