DIY PROJECT // NUTCRACKER COSTUME




Using my existing military blazer, I recreated a nutcracker outfit using duck tapes, Glitter tapes and some Christmas decor strings.

I used felt fabric (to cover the cardboards) and tassels- for my shoulder pads.

For the boots, im wearing a normal boots, but I exaggerated the height of it by covering it with scrap faux leather, I just punched some holes and used the same christmas string that i used on the blazer.

For the Hat, I shaped art board and covered it with tinsels

So there you have it! Instant Nutcracker Costume!

GET THE LOOK // THE NUTCRACKER


Hey Guys, Hope you all enjoyed your Holidays and your New Year's Day Celebrations. 

A prosperous New Year to all of you!

This look was a costume I DIY-ed  for our Christmas Party last December. Using my existing military Jacket as base, I had to come up with ways to liven it up, since it's too plain- Dark Blue. I had to make it more Festive or Christmassy for that matter. Since I used Duct/ Duck Tapes last Halloween for my Manolo (Book of Life) Costume, I thought why not use the same thing as well. I didn't manage to find bright red and blue duct tapes but luckily, since its Christmas time, Dollar stores sells a lot of Christmas craft materials and decors. They were selling sticker tapes in Glittery red and blue- Just what I needed... so that's what I used to create the details of the blazers. It was so fun and easy to do! I really enjoyed It! The best part, I won 1st Prize (BEST IN COSTUME) Wohooo!!!

WHITE CHRISTMAS


So I decided to spend my Christmas holiday in Canada and the US. 'Was actually been wishing for a white Christmas even before I fly off. 
I arrived Canada on the 15th Dec and there was no sign of snow... sigh! :( hahaha!... there were slight flurries from time to time but not enough to accumulate on the ground. Usually the snow season would be around Feb so my wish is yet to come true.
On the night of the Christmas Eve, we went to a Party at the house of my friend's friend... Had fun meeting new people. When we were about to go home, I opened the door and saw everything covered  in white!!!
IT SNOWED ON CHRISTMAS EVE!!!
I felt so blessed to have my wish come true... Right there, i knew i had to take this look in the morning,
 It was a WHITE CHRISTMAS indeed.
