Challenge: 30/31 Day Challenge

30/31 Day Challenge - Day 25: Fashion

Everytime I would read this days challenge, I broke out in David Bowie voice and strutted around singing FASHION! Turn to the Left!
Ok, I didn't except in my head.
Today was a tough one, I had a gorgeous Alexander McQueen dress picked out to replicate, then when I went to physically do the challenge, I didn't think I could do it, so I looked around for something else and couldn't really find something cool, so I ended up circling back to that dress and just going for it.

This is my inspiration:



So..yeah. Not totally close, but I call it a re-imagining. I just simply don't have a cool snakeskin stamp so the more alligator like stamp i used looks like skeleton teeth to me!


My base color is China Glaze Ruby Pumps. Then I sponged on bits of white and black.


After the sponging I stamped on portions of the stamp design in red, black and white in haphazard spots.




So let's see what kinda cool stuff everyone else did for Fashion Day!

      This is really cool, I love that it has a grunge feel to it and your inspiration is the bomb I love Alexander McQueen.
