Me Made May’12 Week5

5/30 Top: Refashioned by me, Skirt: thrifted, Bracelets: some gifts, and some made by me

This top is so old. I think I have had it in my closet since the 90’s. It was a hand-me-down from my mom’s friend, but since it is sheer, I wasn’t sure how to wear it as an elementary school kid. Now I wear this often with a white bikini underneath. It was very long, so I cut it short to make it a top. It’s more versatile this way and it matches with pretty much every skirts I have in my closet:)

5/31 Dress: Made by me, Sandals: bought in Japan.

I wore this dress a lot when I was a pregnant. At that time I felt like it was the only dress that made me look slim! The black tight bottom did the trick 😛 But after I was done with pregnancy, I lost the motivation to wear this dress. I don’t know why..maybe because I wore it too many times! But this MMM challenge made me pull out this old dress again!

I recently went to a nail salon to get gel nails put on. I LOVE them! I ordered pink color gradation with sparkles in the middle, and they are so shinny and fun. It’s supposed to last for about 3 weeks, and so far they have not chipped at all (it’s been one week).

The sandals are recent find at a mall here in Japan. They were only 1000 yen and comfortable to walk around in.
