The DJ Hat

Okay, well, I made this hat a while ago and just about everyone that has seen it loved it. The name was inspired but "the Durban July" because it is a dress up smartly and look great type of thing, so when I made it my sister said "that is so worthy of the Durban July!" and so the name stuck, just we shortened it, so it is called the DJ hat. And I have been wanting to blog it for a while, but I have not had a modle for it, until one of my best friends (Adelaide) came and tried it on for fun and she looked great in it and it looked perfect with the dress she was wearing. So while we were looking at bees in the garden my little sister took some photos and they were really cool, so then we did a photo shoot. My sister took LOADS of cool photos, but I picked some of my favorites:

My own designs...

So it's been a while, huh old friend? But I'm not going to point fingers {I'll just nod in the direction of the cluprit.... Teachers!} I have had a lot of school work and in all honesty I'm doing well, so I'm not exactly complaining.

I have however been busy designing {in class.... well, just the boring ones... Oh, that's all of them...} This set of four is my date range. Perfect for a romantic night out with that someone special.

Step one: Get someone special to go out with

Step two: Find the perfect out fit

Step three: Jazz it up alla you

Step four: Go out!

If that fails, design outfit AND dream guy, then play paper dolls and pretend :)

I suppos you want to know what inspired the drawings....?

The first one I wanted to be party wear and funky, spunky and FUN!

The second one was inspired by my love for pencil skirts (No I don't own one) and the top's colour because that was the random pencil in my pencil case.

The third one was me wanting to mix colours and I felt like a bouble dress/ skirt and then it just happened ;)

The last one was inspired by a top I saw on a girl at a party recently and I liked the neck line, it all then just fell into place
