So it's been about a week and a half since I posted...I know, I know! But let me tell you about that last week and a half. First, we closed on a new house! I am so so excited to get my decorating hands on this new house! Then Luke and I were both gone on different retreats (me for church, him for work) PLUS I was on Fall Break and just decided I needed time to rest and READ!
So here's the outfit that I designed for Glow by Amy Kathleen Ryan (I reviewed it in my last post). I was designing for protagonist Waverly, so I wanted an outer space theme with a girly touch, and I think that's exactly what I got with this! Here it is:
So let's break it down:
- I wanted the outfit's main color to be black because, let's face it, that what Waverly is mostly seeing in Glow--a black universe. So the majority of the outfit is black.
- The T-shirt is a solar system diagram, and it pairs so well with this girly skirt. The two together makes a casual but sweet pairing. And since all of the girls are being kidnapped so they can help women bear children, I knew I needed to accentuate the girly part of an outfit.
- Black tights and black boots keep the feminine touch. However, since Waverly IS trying to escape for most of this book, she needed some kick-butt shoes that gave her some edge.
- Since Waverly and the rest of the characters are on a mission to start life over in a new universal existence, I wanted a pop of white to represent rebirth. Hence this killer leather jacket.
