Featuring the DIY embellished lace stockings that we made before the Nuffnang award ceremony.
I couldn’t find a dress that I liked (and I took a whole month to look for it, in London, in New York) so I made one of my own. It is very reminiscent to the Alexander Wang Goddess dress in purple. I loved the drapey details so I draped one of my own and it only took one day to finish.
Too bad you can’t see much details here. I was laughing at how I managed to look like I only have one foot in this picture, the Acne wedges that almost every fashion blogger covet arrived just 2 days before the ceremony. Muahahhahaa~
Outfit breakdown:
- Dress: DIY
- Stockings: Warehouse (London) /DIY
- Bag: m)phosis (don’t you love the chainmail straps?)
- Shoes: Acne Atacoma Silver/black wedges
- Acessories: really random stuff I bought from Far East Plaza, Primark (London) and Shilin Night market (Taipei)
I wish there was a better shot of the accessories I had on.
