Easy & Sweet Button Hairbow tutorial

Hello hello cutie gals!

It's getting close to the end of term now, and I have a little more time on my hands now yippee yippee yay~

Today I'll show you how to make this super sweet hairbow. You might be able to tell, but I made it out of the scraps left over from my Himekaji Bolero Tutorial, so it's a nice way to make an outift coordinate better as well as use up the last bits of fabric that are too large to throw away but too small to use on a new project.

Himekaji Bolero Sewing Tutorial

Hi cutie gals! It's been so long since I've made a post! In fact, the last time I posted was the day before term started, and now, it's week 6 (I think) and all my assessments are nearly over!

So, today I'll be giving you a super super cute and really easy sewing tutorial for this bolero inspired by this DearMyLove garment:

This project is really quite simple and quick to do, I'd say you could have it done in a few hours! So let's start cutie gals!

Liz Lisa Style Dress Sewing Tutorial 

Happy easter cutie gals!

Finally exams are over and the term has come to a close, and I've been able to spend lot's of time sewing. Because I will have so much time over the holidays, I'm going to try pre-prepare tutorials then, so I can post consistently for you all during term!

Anyways, today I'll be teaching you how to make this beautiful dress, which is a pretty similar copy to this dress from a Liz Lisa 2009 release. This dress was so cute, I chose to wear it as my Easter Sunday dress, paired with a super cute bow.

I've seen many different versions of it, but sometimes its hard to tell which are replicas and which are just using the same fabric but in a different cut.

This dress is absolutely delectable, as i've made it with a very handy elasticated/faux smocked back, a gathered skirt and lace fagoting on the sleeves and close to the skirt hem.

Overall, the construction of this dress is quite straightforward, as we are not adding a zipper in or doing anything fancy with the sleeves (though you can if you'd like!), but it is the pattern drafting which is a bit tricky.

If you've never ever drafted a pattern yourself before and aren't familiar with the general idea of how different pieces would be shaped, I honestly wouldn't recommend doing this, but if you've used a commercial pattern or made your own bodice block before, I reckon you'll get the hang of this easy.

 Ruched Skirt Sewing Tutorial

ॱ ི☘︎ ྀ⋅.˳˳.⋅ॱ ི☘︎ ྀ⋅.˳˳.⋅ॱ ི☘︎ ྀ

Hello everyone! It's been about two weeks since my last post so today i'll be giving you the tutorial on how I made this super cute and sexy ruched skirt! Similar to my last skirt tutorial, this one is an underbust skirt, but with a whole different vibe.

I wore this to the Sydney Gal Meet, and it was so comfortable and really flattering. I must say, the ruching really emphasises the body shape and is a good way to add texture to an outfit.

I was inspired to make this skirt by an Ageha 11/09 scan I saw on Pinterest. I've been wanting to make this since before I became a gyaru!

It's the skirt worn in the top left, I think I copied it quite well, but because my fabric was on the lighter side, it doesn't have as intense ruching, but if you wanted to have really intense ruching, you could multiply your pattern length by 2.5 instead of 2, but we can get into that later in the tutorial.

This project is super easy to do, even though you make your own pattern (don't worry, it's super easy), it's just working with stretch fabric that makes it take a while. An intermediate sewer could probably knock this out in 2-3 hours. (I took about double, though, as I had to figure out how to make the pattern from scratch and was accidentally using denim needles instead of stretch needles...)

Diy Agejo rose shoes

Hello darlings! Today, I'm giving you a tutorial on how I made these super cute and super hot heels from some shoes I got from Kmart on clearance. I first made these to wear to the TWICE concert back in November, but I decided to remake them and do a tutorial too!

When I first made these, I only had cream coloured heels from about a year ago, so sadly, it didn't quite match. It was truly just my luck when I found these black shoes in the same model!

I was really inspired by these Agejo-style shoes I found on Pinterest; they're so fun and are fairly versatile. I think they could work for Hime gyaru too if you used white and pink lace. I guess rose motifs unite the two substyles, which is great, because I really love them.

Kawaii Underbust Skirt - Sewing Tutorial 

➽──────❥ ❀⊱༺♡༻⊰❀ ➽──────❥

Hi everyone! This is my first tutorial, and today I'll be recreating/revamping the first garment I ever sewed by myself and giving you a tutorial on how I made it. 

This skirt is soooo cute and flattering, and would be very suitable for an inverted triangle or hourglass body shape. I think it could be incorporated nicely into a himekaji co ord, and I'm planning to make a puffy, off-shoulder top in white to match, which I'll give a tutorial to draft the pattern for and the instructions to assemble. 

However, I have a longggggg list of things I want to make, and I don't have any more space to store fabric, so it could be a while. Don't worry though! I have lots of other cute tutorials planned too 😝
