Season Two - Episode 6: "Old Hat, New Brooches"

"Ship's Log, Stardate 94146.67:

This hat is an old hat.

Don't get excited, it's a few years old... 

This was probably one of the first hats I made, actually.  

Here's a throwback:

I made that drippy chocolate sash too - not my best work. :P

The hat was inspired by this one made by herajika, and my first version was actually pink (my first cake dress was Chess Chocolate in pink)!

It took three tries, but I was happy enough with the third ivory version to keep it for this long (it's been a few years now).  I haven't brought it out in a while because it really takes large hair to balance it out, and I've been doing mostly low key, low effort looks lately.  Anyway, here is a new coord with it!

The pearl chain, spoon, and fork, are just charms I attached and can be removed.

In the last post, I mentioned some things I got from a friend's booth!

I also went to the Kinokuniya bookstore and picked up a couple of mooks, and have been really enjoying several products from my last two ipsy bags.  Being able to get regularly scheduled little treats like those seriously helps me curb my impulse spending in real life stores.

Sailor scout and vocaloid art being sold by another friend at the same booth.

I got both of the dark eye shadows I wanted,
the green/brown iridescent and the deep plum!

Creepy Muchacha Achachamu bear bag and some posh little earmuffs.
Nice to have a pair that aren't animals.  They came with a postcard book.

These are the brooches my friend makes!
The store is Creamy a la Mode!

Bonus puppy photo bomb...  "Mom, pick me up!"

Not much else to report here - I ordered more drapes, but they are for the master bedroom.  Forest themed, not very kawaii, but if it turns out as cool and woodsy as I hope, I might post something quick about it.  

Oh, one more ouji coord, I'm still doing this thing!

You know the items by now!

Nothing new except the chain, which is made in part from spare AP jewelry.

Oh, and one of the the new brooches near the top of my sash!

That ought to do it for this report!  Up next is a supplemental LBC entry!  

Until next time, Bear signing off!"
