PunkRock Jeans Jacket

Hi everyone!

Some of you were a little put of because of the lack of fashion on this blog recently so I decided that today we are going to make up for that! :D
I got the inspiration for this jacket in school because one of my teachers was wearing one similar to this and I just loved the way it completly transformed her silhouette.. and I REALLY need a long sleeved jeans jacket :D :P

PS: I have no clue why I wrote "Punk Rock" on the back but I felt like it needed something :D

Scribble Sweater

Hello everyone!
Just a quick post from me today :D
I had the idea for the scribbled sweater in my mind for quite some time now so today I though I would put it on paper.

Tragic black cape

Welll guess what-I have a cape for you today!

Mercedes Star necklace!

Hello!
Here it is-the next fall outfit! I must admit this is not the most...."fall"-ish outfit but I saw this necklace today on the bus and I just thought it was an absolutely amazing idea!!
You know these mercedes stars on the cars which kind of stick out? This girl had one on a simple chain around her neck with a few other pendants and it was simply the highlight of the ride :D
Anyway-have a nice evening!
xoxo Alex
PS:I knoooow! yesterday was my first day without a post...but there was no way because it was just so FULL.... forgive me!

The amazing, The wonderful, The ingenius-tube scarf! :D

It is warm, it is big, it is cozy and it is very very stylisch-the tube scarf. A real magic piece which is perfect for any windy day, colder evening or just a fashionable stroll through the streets. As you can proooobably imagine due to my ethusiastic use of adjectives-it is-along with the plaid scarf-one of my absolute favorite pieces which is definetely a must in fall and winter.
This is example you can see right here is very big and wollen, in a kind of (seriously I couldn't think of a better example...) seaweed color.

The art of layering-a long blouse under a sweater

Hello! :D So as you probably all know the real fun of the colder seasons is the layering. You can wear lots of awesome clothes at once! :D However there are a few tips and tricks you might want to watch out for, if you're trying this kind of outfit.




 

Leather jacket paired with a neon mini-skirt :D

Hi there! I hope you're all having a nice evening and enjoying "the voice" :D We have the last punk outfit post today (I want to try something different tomorow so we'll see about that!) and of course another mohawk-I'm sorry-I know not all punks have that but I think it is one of the most awesome haircuts ever and I just had to use the chance- so yes, this time it is not actually spikey but I love it anyway! :D
The top here is a black biker jacket with a zip on one side. This ones paired with an elastic mini-skirt. Under it there's a ripped tights (or tights with a very swirly design :D) and a pair of laced neon trainers.

Swirly Mohawk with matching tie, combat boots and a band shirt!

Hello! I hope y'all had an awesome Halloween last night with lots of awesome costumes (awesome source for inspiration by the way!) I thought about doing a Halloween Special with costumes and everything but I had a very busy day so it was impossible...I promise I'll post some costumes for Carnival though! :D
By the way I chose the shoes today as a promo because I was so proud that FINALLY you can kind of see the fruits of my efforts last week to learn to draw shoes XD

Pink Corset, studded jacket, plaided skirt and (awesome!) black laced boots

Hello everyone! The first actual punk outfit reaches you tooday!
It took me a while to get this one right, simply because I do not really have the most experience in this kind of styling. And how does one find out something one doesn't know? YES - research. So that's what I did and I found that the punk-ish styling isn't actually that hard:the two main ingredients are lots of black and a LOT of metal...also a hint of neon is usually there too. Skirts are usually worn with ripped tights, and the most popular shoe is the big, bulky leather laced boot.

Laced High-heels inspired by Native American Patterns

Hi! I hope you're all having a nice Thursday evening, I certainly am :D I'll be enjoying the next season of the Voice of Germany tonight so I definitely look forward to that! (Go team Rea! :D)
I don't know why but I took to enjoying drawing shoes-they are so nice, with logical shapes (at least from the side :D) and you can actually draw detailed patterns on them-even though it is very time consuming!
Today's design is of course a shoe and again it is a laced high-heel however it is pretty different from yesterday's.

a closer look at shoes and feet+a pair of walking boots

Hi there!
As I said yesterday, I chose this weeks theme because I want to imrpove my drawings of feet, especially when you draw them on a person who is standing facing you. THis is often quite tricky because the shape of the foot is kind of disorted because of the angle you look at it-i.e. it is kind of squashed (so it doesn't look as long as it really is). Quite frankly this confuses me everytime I drew feet so here we go-we are going to tackle this problem!
I hinted yesterday that I looked at some videos which explain how to do this. Some good ones can be found here, here and here.
On the right you can see my favorite view-I love how the toes are so round and cute XD (pls don't ask me why!).
However obviously as this is kind of a fashion blog I also drew some with shoes. The first attempts were very horrible and only one turned out to be quite ok so here you go!

Oversized Red "Bond" Cape

Hey!
It was during a conversation with a friend of mine that we came to the conclusion that the next bond will have to be a woman. No more Daniel Craig, Sean Connery or Pierce Brosnan-no the next one should be Scarlett Johanson (in the Avengers she wasn't that bad so she should manage Bond :D) or something.
To be fair the name James would have to change a little-I guess Jamie would work...and of course the bond-girls would turn into smokin' hot guys and there you go-the perfect recipe for a successfull movie!

long black coat

Hello :D
Today's preview is a little unusual if you have a the theme "coats but I chose the shoes anyway so that in a minute, when you click on "Read More :D" we can concentrate on the coat :D
So they're bright red, have plateau heels and laces!

Futuristic Peplum Shirt

Hi everyone! I'm really getting into the peplum thing-at first I thought they were awful-but now I actually kind of like them!
This shirt has a high black collar, then goes down until the waist where the peplum unfolds itself. What makes this looks so futuristic is the fabric. It is very stiff which is why there are only a few prominent folds and the peplum "stands".
To go with it I added just a simple pair of black leggings and if you have the guts you can add some (very) high heeled red shoes.

Jeans Vest Outfit

Hello there! :D A rather late post today but I hope you enjoy it anyway ;)
If you were wondering how to pull off the jeans vest from yesterday-here's an idea.
A simple pair of trousers (if you choose jeans be careful that the two different jeans colors match!-I would prefer colorful trousers for this combination) with a loose tanktop or shirt. here I also added a little triangular scarf, a cute hat <3 and a pair of wedges.
xoxo Alex

Fake fur coat

Hi! As with lots of designs I got inspired to this one by a movie (lets see if you can guess!). The wearer is a young woman who is unhappy because she has lost the passion she had, when she was doing what she loved.
The coat has a broad fake fur collar, is gathered on the waistline and goes out again until just over the knees. Due to the fur at the wrist and the bottom, it gives the wearer a glamorous, diva-like air-(which I would personally love to try to destroy with a rocker-style outfit to go with it-that's an idea for another post...:D)
Have fun trying to guess the movie and have a nice day XD
xoxo Alex

Short Jeans with Tights

Hi! You see this kind of outfit everywhere at the moment with the colder weather creeping in and everyone not wanting to give up their shorts. Well the solution is tights under the shorts!
Here the classic example with some short jeans, grey tights, laced brown leather boots and a simple white top.
By the way-yes I did notive that the neck is kind of very far on the left-please forgive me for that :D
xoxo Alex

Rocker style pencil skirt

Hi! I developed the design I have for you today when a friend asked me how I thought you could style a pencil skirt. When I said that apart from the usual, businesslike look you could use it in a rockerstyle outfit she didn't believe me so here's the proof :D
The simple black pencil skirt is combined with a white Linkin Park tanktop, a brown shoulder bag and some laced leather boots (gotta love them..:D) with a round tip.
The outfit is finished off with some rough bracelets and a bandana, with loose hair framing the face.
So what do you think? Point proven?
xoxo Alex
PS: yes I do admit-the pencil skirt is not the best skirt to use for this kind of outfit-check out tomorow's post to see what I mean :D

Applique Shirt

Hello! I started off making this design with just an idea for a pattern. Then I transfered it on to a shirt for which I then designed a whole outfit-which turned out to be a little cowgirlish looking. I kind of like that.
The pattern itself is simple but relatively delicate however through the outfit it is basically given a very casual, rough kind of effect. The shirt was combined with some high sitting jeans, leather laced boots and a simple brown jacket.
xoxo Alex

Step up outfits

Hello guys! Today's outfit, well outfits, are not of my usual ones. I was inspired to do these after watching Step up which weill probably explain a lot.
The girl's outfit is a simple red bustier top and some extremely low sitting comfortable sweat pants. The man has some simple low sitting trousers and a simple black shirt. Both of them wear a simple hoodie over their outfits.
