My First Time!

Please, don't be confused by the title this is not a blushing maidens memoir ,but a memoir of my first Lolita homemade outfit. Now I must say ,some of my outfit was bought and altered. I often go to thrift shops like Goodwill or other local (not very popular) hand-me-down stores. At my local Goodwill (now assisted by my grandmother being visited daily) I found a white vest covered in cute strawberries. Next my amazing find was a white woman's dress shirt with pretty details at the bottom of the sleeves.My plans in which are not finished is adding lace to the vest. I took a pair of my old white shorts and added red lace to the bottom followed by lovely (homemade) bows in which were delicately placed and sewed to the lace. 

I thought my outfit was not complete at all so I decided to (for the first time ever with no tutorial at all) make my first head dress! The base material is covered with cute half eaten fruit. Adding lace, bows, and the tie to hold it on my neck. Other things I have created will be shown below.
