I won’t be in town otherwise I would definitely be there. I went a few years ago and had such an amazing time…

Old school / New school

I do love vintage clothes, but unfortunately, they are really hard to find and most of the time don’t fit at all, specially when you’re a midget. So i decided to show some modern clothes i like and details about it that make it look really glamorous or vintage to me.

Some cool Tops in order of apparition : Urban outfitters, Manoush, New look and Asostop-inspirations

Do it hair-self

Here are a few pictures, that i saw a while ago that inspired me to create my own hair accessories. The best thing about doing it yourself is that you can make it exactly the way you want and it is most of the time a way better quality and it is also cheaper.

My own pictures are of course not as good as the professional one, but they’re just here to show, that you can do it. Hair accessories can really complete an outfit and they won’t bother you as much as neclaces or huge earrings, so it is something you want to keep in mind.hair accessories
