project bling #37

this is a bit of a project bling
photo walkthrough mixed with my halloween
costume for this year. [2013]

this is the original costume i bought from
spirit halloween. i felt that it wasn't
really me after i got it home.
i didn't like
the tutu and the top was too plain for me.

here i redid the corset and the tutu.
the very last picture shows the tutu that i remade.
[tutorial for the tutu coming up next!]

since halloween stores don't allow returns, i
decided to take matters into my own hands and
put my skills to use.

the start of the corset. i decided to
bling the costume last minute
and also ordered
the rhinestones from china so it took about
a week to receive. so i didn't bling the whole
costume due to timing.

finally it's finished! the corset took me about
2 hours and 19 minutes to complete!
so overall 3 hours and 15 minutes. all together.


here's the end result! my fiancé
and i as wonder woman and the flash.
we don't even really like dc. dc < marvel. we finally matched! nerds!
