VALENTINE'S DAY DIY: LOLITA RIBBON HAIR ACCESSORY, MOI-MEME-MOITIE DRESS.
Basil Farrow and I got a box of Purdy’s dark chocolates for Valentine’s Day. However, we were more interested in the ribbon and key that held the wrapping paper together! Most people would throw away the decoration, but we turned it into two ribbon hair accessories.
The look is inspired by Innocent World’s cameo and bow. I found two plastic hair combs at a drugstore for $2, tied a bow and strung the ribbon through each, and sewed it in place. A photo from the April 2007 edition of Zipper Magazine gave me an asymmetrical hairdo idea.
Et voila. Photo by Rony’s Photobooth, taken at Glory Days Valentine’s party featuring DJ Skeet Skeet.
Dress: Moi-meme-Moitie by Mana Sama (one of my best finds from Closet Child Harajuku)
Makeup: Aromaleigh “I See Red” and “Vive Le Rock” from the Rocks! Sonic Eyes collection
Playing card stickers: from Tokyu Hands, Shibuya.
