expand

  i've been exploding with ideas for my leg flares recently. ive got the great idea to make 18 blank leg flares and then add different picture to each one. leaving one blank so i will only have to make half as many unless some one wants to buy them off me in which case i would make them matching pairs unless they prefered to have the design on one leg like me. but i have yet been able to buy the fabric to let the games get started.
  recently ive been evaluating my sketch book and i realized i have a lot of good ideas in there but i cant realistically make about half of the drawings in there. so i sat down one night and brainstormed a bunch more ideas for tops!! i cant wait to try them out! im really inspired by my latest style costumes ive been making for all the festivals and shows i go too. (and hopefully gigs too) i just want to keep expanding my ideas with different shapes. i always make halter tops but i think its time for a change. plus if a friend wants to wear one of my costumes out to a show we dont want to look exactly alike!! my friend alexa and i had this problem earlier this year before the sub sonic circus show.i guess all at the same time im getting bored of the look i've created and i want to create something new and different to grab peoples attention again on facebook.                when it come to facebook. i think im going to put a few dollars in here and there to get a bigger fan base. and then come spring im think im going to launch a whole look book with my new line and put it on etsy and post every day with a close up of a new item so that way it will give me more feed back on what people like and dont like. and if i post everyday it will give people more chance to comment on my things and bringing my page up on their friends feeds. hopefully spreading my fan base. i feel like i will sell more things this year then ever.

learning how to make a skirt

So, im trying to learn how to make skirts but every time i put it on in the end it looks funny. ive tried so many different times and different ways and they all look dumb. i have an entire plastic drawer that full of skirts that i made that i will never wear. i dont want to get rid of them but i dont know what else to do.i might be able to wear the orange skirt and leg flairs if i am performing. it is bright yet if its dark, the orange and reds will look interesting in the fire light! i have a tight brown shirt that is similar in color  that will look super cute with the costume too!

Fall Photoshoot!!!







































Slip sliding away

     OK OK so im done promoting. i just cant put my self in a position to hussle my clothes .i got everything up and running with a few winter things and a few summer things and no one has really even checked out my etsy site. oh well.
    i am in the mood to do another photo shoot mixing some of the things i made over the summer in with the winter items. i noticed the leg flairs i made this summer will look really nice come fall with a cute sweater and some leggins. also i have extra fabric from the summer so i may make some more leg flairs today.
     im in the process of making a vest for ryan. i tried so hard to crochet him one but it took a long time and i didnt feel it was coming out right. so im attempting to make him one out of fabric this time. but i can get enough motivation to take his measurements. and if im going to do this im going to do it right. so i dont want to start the project just to ruin it.

Spontanious Promotion

Lately I've noticed I've been trying to promote my handmade clothing a lot more. I have no idea where this is coming from. I've been posting a lot on my Curious Culture Clothing page with more of a selling prospective in mind, instead of just sharing the pictures as well as starting an etsy web page. I think the cool weather coming is sparking up my imagination and I feel confident enough to spread it right now.

Curious Culture Clothing spreading P.L.U.R. around the world one festival at a time! @Electric Zoo Festival
I had such a blast at this show! i got so many compliments on my outfit i left feeling very sure of myself! the top fit perfect through out the show. i never got too hot and it never slipped or streched out of place. my leg flairs stayed up no problem with a little tan fish net tights under them for grip. i was jumping around litterally all day and not once did i have to pull them up! The pockets, like every time, worked great! again, i danced all day long and didnt lose a thing and had a place for my water bottle!

Matching black and white Rage rag and Pockets



I found these two accessories to be crucial  for any festival I go to. I've been seeing many bandanas on faces recently but i haven't seen any that match outfits! let protect our lungs in style with the new RAGE rag! I've made one to match every outfit I have created. the matching pockets go hand and hand as far as necessity at a show. I know from personal experience that when I go out I never want to bring a purse or have to carry a back pack that bumps into everyone behind you while your trying to let loose and RAGE. so I invented the pockets! they tie right around the waist and sit right at your sides so there's no bumping,holding or dropping (unless its a bass line) and you can dance the night away knowing everything you need is right at your side!

Blue tied dyed RAGE rag

Protect your lungs in style with the new RAGE RAGS!!! This light weight stretchy fabric provides protection for your lungs from all the dirt being kicked up. while keeping your face a beautiful mystery. I made all my RAGE RAGS to match my outfits. next time you go out everyone will wonder, whos that chick?
