dorothy's dress







dress - self made (former skirt from flea market)

when i bought this skirt
i actually planned to wear it as a skirt
..
and then i never did..
it was a bit larger 
and a lot longer than it should be
and i was too damn lazy to do something about it
..
then one day it struck me:
i'm going to turn it into a dress!
i'm going to make it be my dorothy dress!
..
i know what you're thinking:
dorothy's dress is blue not red!
well, i have a solution for that:
my ruby slippers are blue!
so.. it's more of 'reverse dorothy's dress'
than the real one
..
and where are those blue slippers, you ask?
on my feet..
 i forgot to take a photo of them
blame it on heat
and those handsome cherries that distracted me

who are you wearing? i wear oonaballoona!







maxi dress - made by oonaballoona


i have a sister
 from another mister..
her name is oona,
of the clan balloona
she is fabulous and colorful
and ridiculously talented..
she makes me laugh
and she makes me think
and share my love for booze
..
and she somehow
knows my body better then i do
so she made me a dress
that fits like a glove 
just to let me know
how it should be done
