Make it Work Blog Hop!

Welcome to the Flying Unicorn Make it Work! Blog Hop. We’re so happy that you’ve joined us! The Hop starts at the Flying Unicorn blog, so if you didn’t start there, hop on over to this link and get started so that you don’t miss anything! I’ll see you back here in a bit!

If you are here, you should of come straight from the Flying Unicorn Blog.

Since this hop is all about fashion, I want to share with you a layout I did of my favorite designer, Michael Kors. He is so creative and talented in his field. I love his designs because not only does he do runway, he designs 'ready to wear' clothing, handbags and shoes that are affordable to all women. He also designs outfits to be worn in movies too!

Here is my layout based on an ad for Michael Kors clothing. I used Bo Bunny's Forever Fall Collection to try to match the colors in the photo. I misted some of my flowers with Glimmer Mist. Stamped the background with various stamps. Used cheesecloth for an accent trying to bring out the flowing fabric in the picture..tho I'm not sure if I succeeded..lol I used lots of different textures in it too.



There is a reason that the Creative Team members are all featuring fashion on their blogs during this hop. This is just a preview of the fun we are going to have in March during our Haute Couture at the Unicorn Ritz challenges! Wait until you see the OTP project, it is so fabulous. Hmmmm, what is haute couture anyway?
“The term "haute couture" is French. Haute means "high" or "elegant." Couture literally means "sewing," but has come to indicate the business of designing, creating, and selling custom-made, high fashion women's clothes.

To be called a haute couture house, a business must belong to the Syndical Chamber for Haute Couture in Paris, which is regulated by the French Department of Industry. Members must employ 15 or more people and present their collections twice a year. Each presentation must include at least 35 separate outfits for day and eveningwear." (For more information see What is Haute Couture by David Johnson. http://www.infoplease.com/spot/fashionside1.html)

The March kit reveal is right around the corner and I'm so excited to share a few sneaks with you!! This kit is amazing..and the OTP is over the top awesome!!
