Hey thanks so much I read a little of your profile and I went to FSU I also recently had a boutique in FSU for the last 3.5yrs. I just closed it and moved to GA. FSU is cool but I did Business I was crazy should have studied fashion. FSU is a cool school and the people are so cool once you get into fashion school talk to the president they give away free passes to the WSGN.com that is like unheard off. Well take care and thanks I just started a myspace you could be one of my friends.

rodrigo that's amazing! i'm really excited about attending there (hopefully.. i find out november 1st). & that's so cool that you had your own boutique there, i'm uber jealous. I was hoping that when i get to there (again i still have to get in.. :-x) they would have some cool little shops I could get more retail experience at. thanks for the advice!

send me a myspace request! http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=88395617&MyToken=8597e62f-cab0-451a-9554-0785d1bf559e

I love customizing my t-shirts. I have about 3-4 ones that i love more than any of my "real", store-bought ones. My favourite is a black, very slim longsleeve which i've sewn gold buttons on, a oversized black v-neck tee which i've splashed goldpaint all over and a black longsleeve i've sewn like, not diamonds but very sparkly "things" on (can remember the english word). Will try to take some pictures later today.

Hey thanks for you compliments.
I sold a few on ebay but ebay actually sucks because you don't get what you deserve generally people look for cheap items on ebay. But thanks I always list a few on ebay.

i've just spray painted some shoes!



and to my surprise they have turned out very well, since i couldnt be bothered to fork out for shoe dye when i have loads of spray paint.

im wearing them out tonight so i'll take pictures and report back whether they are all cracked and flaky after a night out!

 

[Elegance.Is.Refusal.]

after a night of salsa they are looking alright although there is some cracking where your foot bends but im still happy with them.

the pictures abit bad but you can see the peach colour they used to be that funny salmon peach colour but i love them white

 

[Avantster]

Nice work elegance, I'd say they're all the better with a little cracking, adds more character!

 

[Elegance.Is.Refusal.]

thanks im tempted to go spray paint happy on my shoes but i know i shouldnt

I made this leopard print + felt purse for my best friend's xmas present a couple of hours ago... I hope she likes it!

Annnd I just realised I posted that in the wrong thread

 

[MUXU]

i didnt know spray paint works on shoes as well
i brought a can of gold spray paint just for leather...still havent found the right thing to spray it on =(

i have a couple questions
is wearing spray painted clothing bad for your skin? wont the chemicals sink into your skin through your pores and poison you?
poison..haha..it sounds silly. is there any bad side effects to spray painted clothing?

 

[Elegance.Is.Refusal.]

^ i've spray painted my clothing and im not poisoned i dont think it really matters once its dry plus i've washed them a few times but i dont really know.

i just used car spray paint on my shoes although they have gotten a wee cracked but i like the distressed look!
