I’ve been in the mood to do some DIY fashion stuff lately, please note “been in the mood” does not mean I have actually made anything so don’t get too excited but I’ve been looking at some DIY fashion sites lately and I’m thinking in our current climate and with my natural creative aptitude (*cough*) I could get some glue gun action happening and create some cool shit. Namely what I wanna do is buy cheap ugly heels from payless and stick shit to them (feather, fruit, ruffles, crystal things). I don’t think my outfits are crazy enough to carry any of this shit off but I’m thinking seriously about it. I wanna make some fruit espadrilles for summer! But yeah it got me thinking about the good old bedazzler. The thing that every girl has pined for at some point in their lives…

This baby punches crystals into just about anything and was an eighties delight. They still make them but apparently the quality is bullshit now. According to amazon reviews. Looking up bedazzler shit though inevitably got me onto one of the most funnest slash fucked up-intriguing things to do on the internet: look at pagaent websites! HOLY SHIIIT. I think myself or someone else may of posted on this shit before, but my God it’s thrilling looking at those sites, so much glitter and general absolute inappropriate styling that the whole culture is just this grotesque/amazing visual feast! If your not a dude (kinda suss looking at lil’ girls, let’s face it, especially if you’re at work) I highly recommend you search that shit. It’s a great way to kill time. Have a look at some of my picks from this lady’s site who designs the amazing montrosities these little things wear….
WOWWWW. That’s some serious tan you got there babe. And check her french mani. How does ANYONE think this is appropriate for little girls to look like this, weirddd.
This bitch is my fave! She looks like bride of chucky in every picture! I wonder what she was dancing to…
This girl is called “Mackensie” what a suprise. She looks about 35. Her dress is kinda amazing though. I mean when I was a little kid I would of killed to wear this thing. There’s some shops back in QLD run by Filipino ladies that sell shit versions of this stuff haha. They’re so gross. I’m seriously suprised these little girls aren’t wearing heels though hey? Surely it’s only a matter of time…
Hang on, this chick has a bit of a heel going. Tell me there’s not about 189 things not right with this outfit. She’s even wearing a hooker hat. I’m gonna report this shit to the copyright police too for using Mickey in the background. This is one event I wouldn’t mind getting sued off it’s ass for copyright infringement…
Hahaha I can’t stop looking at this girl, she’s not even pretty! She’s actually really fugly! She wins all of the pageants though apparently. Obviously because of her amazing bedazzled outfits haha. Have a look at this shit close up…
Wow, that’s some serious embellishment. I kinda love over the top embellishment, it’s so kitsch and awesome. Just not on kiddies. Part of me appreciates these dresses though, reminds me of one of my fave designers (though pretty sure they no longer run the label) HEATHERETTE. The label was the brain child of two gay guys, who love the campness of American culture. You can tell alot of their stuff was influenced by pageant dresses, but they make it look awesome! Check it…
Woohoo go the fringe!
Um wowwww. And yes that’s Naomi. I would kill to try on this dress haha.
Woohoo Americana. And yes that’s Jenna Jameson. She actually looks pretty modelly here.
This one has an exposed zip. I love exposed zips. Love the shoes they have with them too. Looks way better than if there were standard heels with them.
And here’s a lil something to end on. Oooooh dear god. Ba-Bye now!
xoxoxo

Does the name Jon Benet Ramsey spring to mind at all???
A crafternoon is urgently in order. Shame we’re interstatual. Maybe we can skype together and demonstrate our amazing super gluing abilities? Maybe we can record a series of crafternoon vids and put them on a channel on youtube?
FYI I had a craft sess last night and made some pretty amazing headwear pieces for my new accessory line… Watch out!
hhahah yeah you tube channel would be hilarious. Except I don’t want anyone jacking my amazing bedazzled shoes. I don’t wanna share knowledge. I haven’t even made anything yet and I’m still protective of it. haha. You and I should do a collabo. Matching shoes and fascinators! I am in love with your “line”. Show me moreeee! haha. I’ll make matching fruit espadrilles for your ffruit hat. I think we should do something with pom poms too or fake butterflies. I reckon you should make a hat that’s a little record too, on the side. Cover it in black glitter. Do they make black glitter/?
Is the third devil munchkin down a micro Fergi??
