What I'm wearing today / Craft time

This outfit is a veritable cornucopia (see? Thanksgiving theme) of things I've made, and funny faces. Though you can't see the other funny faces, I guarantee they were there in the b-roll. Anyhoodle, here's the list of items in which I am clad: Black and white splatter-paint print pencil skirt, which I madeOatmealy tankPlaid punkified blazer, which I reworked from a conservative one I hadBlack & brown booties with which I am strangely preoccupiedLeather & stone necklace from a street vendor on the St. Charles Bridge in PragueBig ring, which I made from accoutrements (French accent please) I picked up in ParisSince I just made the jacket, it gets more pictures of its own. Things I did to the jacket include:Cutting off the sleeveRemoving the...ahem...shoulder padsMaking holes in it with sandpaper over rocksWashing itSafety-pinning the sleeve back onDrawing on it with a sharpieOdd and unplanned pink and red embroideryAdding black and white striped trim over some seamsAdding an applique at the nape of the neckPopping the collar (for added coolness)Removing the label, embroidering "ANGEL" over "MERON" while still using the final "A" from "Merona" (thanks, Target!), and then hand-sewing it back onRemoving one of the buttons and replacing it with a mismatched one
