No this blog is not dead :3

Since my last update, many things have happened, which I guess is kind of a given, as it's been forever since my last update. Anyway, in May I journeyed to Cardiff to visit a friend of mine. We did several photoshoots there, some of which are featured in the June edition of Starlight Magazine.

There are more photos from the castle shoot to see at my photo blog. I'm kind of slow-mo with the editing, so the two other shoots aren't up yet, but will be soon. Hopefully.

I'm also very excited to say that I will have two photoshoots featured in the next issue. One of them is a huge photo series with four models. I spent so much time on preparing for that shoot, it's ridiculous. I had to sew most of the outfits, but I'm very pleased with the outcome, so I can't wait to show you the photos. The next issue of Starlight will be released on Monday the 8th and we've taken quite a bit step forward this time in terms of layout and content, if I may say so myself, hehe. :3

For the premiere of the last Harry Potter movie, Tenna and I spent the weekend before sewing dresses. I made this deep red velvet dress with a black chiffon bustle, and Tenna made a green velveteen dress. Brilliant as she is, Tenna then painted our respective house crests onto the dresses. Mine in gold paint and hers in silver. It looks awesome, just saying.

How we looked for the premiere. I have to say that I am so happy with the work we put into these dresses. It felt really amazing to honour the end of an era like this. I'm a huge HP fan, so it meant a lot to me. And yes, I needed a bucket for my creys.

We barely got to set foot in the cinema, when a tv reporter came up to us and asked for an interview. We nervously agreed. It was quite a long interview and he asked lots of questions. Lol, he opened with "Aren't you too old to be watching Harry Potter". Unfortunately, I can't show you the final clip. I haven't even seen it myself. Both Tenna and I have tried writing the tv station, but they were no help at all, which is a shame. I really wanted to see it :(

Then on the 20th of July Tenna and I went to a meetup with the Danish forum for Japanese Fashion. This was my first meetup actually, but I already knew a couple of people there, so it wasn't as daunting as one could've thought. We just had a nice picnic in the park and the we played charades.

Group shot, though not of the entire group, just the lolis


We spent the rest of the evening chilling and then the next day, after a quick trip downtown, Tenna and I started sewing. I started making a black chiffon dress. I've been needing just a basic black dress for so long. I finished it late in the evening after Tenna went home.

Sorry for the half-assed pics, I was so lazy that day, lol.

All right, that's it for now. I do have a few new purchases to show you, but that'll be some other time.
