Challenge 6: The Art of the Matter-Oops!

It's Thursday already? I haven't even picked out/made an inspirition painting. I've been super busy, and have ran out of time. I guess I'm sitting this one out. But, have no fear, I'll be back next week for whatever crazy stuff they make us do. (And maybe, if I have time, I'll try to get this look done, too, someday, so that I can have a full collection)

Challenge 5: Off the Track- The Runway



Challegne 5 Runway

Well, you can definitely tell that I only spent about an hour and a half on this. This was for a couple reasons. First: I have been crazy busy, with guests on town almost all last week, and new ones coming into town tonight. Second: I hate this kind of challenge, where Heidi (or whoever) basically says "Hi designers, design something that I can sell and make lots of money off your hard work. kthanksbye" Third: I don't even know what the challenge was. When they gave out the challenge, they said not to do workout clothes, but then they dinged people for not making workout clothes. And fourth: Heidi's sneakers are kind of ugly. Nurse. Shoes.

Anyway, I would pair my outfit (which was supposed to look more like a light drape-y jersey blouse and tight miniskirt, and less like a sweatshirt) with sneakers (natch!) and a bold watch (since this girl is clearly about practicality, not fashion).
