happy new year!

here is what i did today since we had no school. (don't mind my face in the pictures, please)

another idea...

Here is my attempt of a toned down version of tokyo street style...only made from t-shirts, of course.

Random Ideas

well lets see since I am not uber overachiever like the New Jerseans over there *pokes North* I am researching some designs and here are some of my early picks. This means I have to go to a thrift store and get better shirts though.

Kick butt vest

(something Leatha face would approve)
maybe add a hood on it if i could manage that

ooh and ninja mitts

will come up with more later maybe I am just happy i have sort of a plan

Isn't chopping up t-shirts so much more fun than writing essays?

Practicing another simple design...I wanted to try making an off the shoulder shirt...and then I felt I had to make a skirt to go with it. This one is more athletic-y. I wanted it to be poofy-er but I don't know how that is possible with t-shirt material.

The official rules?

Here are the rules we were discussing on the car ride back to NJ (I know my mom posted some below...)





1. I've heard it said that outfits must be 50% used t-shirt. So from this I'm coming to the conclusion that the other 50% could be any fabric or material at all.


2. Following from that...accessories and shoes and such can be anything...and I'm assuming shoes can just be whatever ones we have.


3. Will there be one or two categories? Are there enough participants for 2? We were discussing ideas and my mom seemed to be thinking a lot more "high fashion" whereas I was thinking of things I might actually wear in public.


4. Judges? Gangang and Chris? And someone else?


5. People are allowed to exchange ideas and such...as my mom pointed out, on "Project Runway," they are all working in the same room.

6. Will we be forced to do a runway walk?!?! And what are the prizes? (innes asks)
