Ozma (Return to Oz)

So... my main achievement over the holidays has been finding and stalking some new Instagram subcultures. One of them is Disney Princess cosplay, oh yes.

While I kind of love it, I think the only Disney princess I'd want to go out in public as is beautiful Ozma from the highly awesome and dark, 90s Disney film Return to Oz. I love her green dress and Ruby slippers and her Art Nouveau headdress. She is a bit of a cross between Glinda and the fairy Sherly Lee plays in Wild at Heart.

I also love me some ostrich feathers...

Scarfed

I took the kitchen scissors to my fringe and have been trying out some scarf turbans as inspired by some of my favourite Instagrammers (below)

New Year's Eve

My outfit for our New Year's Eve party: NYE Outfits Happy 2016!

Pierrot collars

Pierrot has always been a big fashion icon for me (hello 2013 post) but I seem to be seeing more and more Pierrot collars at the moment. Possibly because of all the 30s babes I follow on Instagram. After seeing the price of dresses with almost any type of collars from Etsy, I have decided to make one myself that I can attach to different outfits. Here is my mood board:
