Daily Style: Fawn/Maid outfit

I made some antler headbands the other week, i made one to match my homemade skirt with a Japanese maid inspired fabric headband. I thought it looked cute n.n

Sorry about the exposure in these photos, the sun was so erratic and kept going behind the cloud then shining right on me so my exposure would be wrong once i wait for the timed shot. It is kind of hard doing it alone sometimes >.<

Outfit:

Shirt: This is an old blouse from a local store. 

Skirt: My homemade skirt from second hand fabric! 

Socks: eBay.

Shoes: eBay.

Wig: eBay. 

Lenses: EOS Ice Violet from Candylens.

Hair clip: Pony hair clip from Sweet Spirits.

Necklace: Kitty necklace from Victoria's Handmade Rings 'n' Things.

Bracelets: Second hand pastel bracelets. 

Headband: I made this from a base of scrunched up foil, then Papier-mâché and paint. I added a Japanese maid headdress style piece of fabric to it too, which matches the skirt. I took a few photos whilst I was making them: (yes, the supermarket in Sweden is called Willy's XD)

I made this one with longer antlers and with a brown fleece fabric headdress.

Daily Style: Maids Dress & Circle Lens Review

I was very excited to win a competition on facebook where I won a pair of coloured circle lenses of my choice! When they arrived, I wanted to do an outfit test straight away!

These are my first coloured lenses I have tried, I have tried normal contact lenses but I didn't like them, my eyes would blur and sting. So I thought there would be no point in me buying some coloured lenses. But since I won some in a competition, it is the perfect opportunity for me to test them out! 

Let's start with some of the usual outfit photos. I have on my new yellow maids outfit, which I had to sew panels into the side to make it larger like the blue one I previously wrote about this year on here. 

Outfit:

Dress: Yellow Japanese style maids dress I bought second hand. As usual it was way too small so I have sewn in two white panels down the sides of the dress to make it larger! Works a charm. This dress is super cute, I love the lace and white detail on the front. I really love these maids dresses they are just so adorable, although I am not sure if I can really wear them very much :( 

Wigs: Blue wig with ponytails from eBay. 

Socks: eBay 

Shoes: Second hand rocking horse shoes. 

Lenses: these lenses are from Beautifeye, a UK based circle lens webstore. 

Now let's get into some detail about the lenses. 

I really didn't know what colour scheme to go for, but I quite like the grey looking ones. I have seen a lot of people using the dark, extra large ones to get that "big eyed" look, but I have read that the larger they are the more uncomfortable they can be. So I decided to go for some normal sized ones, in grey called Grey Glamour by ColourVUE.

Here is a close up comparison of my eyes:

I didn't really know what the grey colour would look like over my light blue eyes, but they kind of have a brown tone in the middle of the lenses, which is quite interesting and pretty! I guess with darker eyes they make the dark colour more grey, like in the photo on the item link here.

I was surprised at how quickly I managed to put the lenses in as well! They are super soft and easy to wear, considering my throw away contact lenses I tried before would make my eyes blur and sting. These didn't hurt my eyes at all, although there is a strange blurring and darkness around the edges of my pupils, due to the dark lenses. Luckily I read about that in advanced and it is totally normal. 

The lenses came in their separate cases and I was also supplied with a lens case and lens cleaning solution. After I wore them, I filled the case with the solution and put the corresponding lens into the corresponding left or right lens case! 

I am really interested in trying to wear these more, but I will do it slowly to get my eyes used to them!

One thing i noticed though, with the flash on the camera you could kind of see my own blue eye colour around the middle of the lenses. As seen above, the first 3 are without flash but the last has the flash on. 

Overall, I would like to try more colours of lenses. I think the darker ones might work for me since my eyes are naturally light. I can't wait to try more! (when i eventually get a job to buy things -___-)

Thanks for reading! Och God Jul! Merry Christmas, here in Sweden we celebrate today on the 24th.

Daily Style: Pastel Wig

I wanted to try out my new wig that i got for my birthday XD It is so cute. 

Outfit: 

Wig; This beauitufl wig was a present from my dad for my birthday, but it was from eBay here. It is more than I would spend on a wig but that is why i asked for it as a present! The wig itself is pretty nice quality, although the colours aren't quite as pastel as in the photo on eBay. This is my first wig with pigtails!

Stock photo:


Dress: This was my blue lolita maid dress that i have written about in an earlier post, just without an apron.

Socks: White socks from eBay.

Shoes: White rocking horse shoes that i got second hand from someone selling them, i love them so much.

Hair slides: I have two cute apple hair slides on the pigtails of the wig from Victoria's Handmade Rings n Things.
