Mom and I had a chandelier-making evening, and this is what I have so far.
Yep, I said so far.
A couple of outfit shots (courtesy of Courtney, right) before our Tuesday escapade to LA’s Fashion District for fabric shoppin’!
I’ve been obsessed with denim vests lately (especially the bleaching, dyeing, and decorating) and I wear mine whenever I get the chance. Unfortunately it kind of blocks out the outfit so I’ll break it down as best as I can:
White/pastel panda blouse - thrifted
Blue shorts - Forever 21
Belt - eBay
Tights - welovecolors.com
Purple Vans - Journeys
Bow - handmade
I’ve got two more of these #fairykei baseball style shirts, sizes S/M and M/L. Go!

Quick recap from Bubble Punch’s Super*Market! This amazing weekend started Friday night when miss ZambiCandy came from up north to stay the night so we could take off to LA first thing Saturday. We went out for Bento, did some last minute dollar store shopping for our booths, then headed back to my place to do more prep work. First thing in the morning Katie joined us and we were off! We hit snow on the Grapevine, but nothing too scary. It was quite pretty actually.
We got to Meltdown Comics to set up and it turned out I had soooo much stuff I couldn’t fit it all. I had even reserved TWO booths! Can’t believe I stressed so much about making “enough product.” Oh well, I have enough for the next event! I tried getting lots of photos but I had to balance that on top of managing my booth and checking out the other booths. We also got some entertainment (a live debate podcast by Defective Geeks, as well as a lovely performance by the band Nylon Pink).
After the event we grabbed dinner and met up with Jennifer Erickson for the tail end of RAWartists. We caught the last couple of fashion shows and saw some art. We also saw a drunk guy just tear it up to the music on the stage until a bouncer escorted him off.
The next morning we headed off to Torrance to check out the new Daiso that had just opened the week before. Daiso is a chain of 100 yen stores (in the US it’s $1.50) that has super cute and high quality items like housewares, stationery, toys, snacks, gift wrapping, etc. (Chubby Bunny has a lil’ write-up on her blog!) Amazing how many items I didn’t realize I needed! After going next door to Marukai Market (and finding green tea Kit Kats, yay!) we had Okonomiyaki at a restaurant called Gaja.
We ended our trip with a small trek downtown for fabric shoppin’. Only I didn’t get much accomplished because most of my stores were CLOSED. Sigh.
Anyway, can’t wait for the next Super*Market! Great job, and thanks Yume and Michelle for inviting me!
Oh, and here’s ZambiCandy’s recap of our weekend!
