Dark Mori Girl Attempt

It's been a while since I last used my antlers. Since I am in an experimental stage as to what I am producing for the 2013 collection, I decided to try my hand at dark mori girl. I think I missed a few points as I did not create the dress with more layers, and then used my prototype cage skirt, which has a more erololita influence rather than mori girl. I even regret wearing for the most part of the shoot. I was not pleased with it as it made taking photos a bit of a challenge, especially that I was wearing my antlers. I use my camera's timer to take my portraits but the hoops kept bumping against my tripod. Still, the cage skirt would be a concept I would attempt to perfect. Hopefully I am able to build one that looks more stable.

Anyway, on to the pictures! Please be reminded that the dress, antlers, and cage skirt are made by Yours Truly. I am currently open for commissions, should you want a dress or accessory. I would also be uploading finished dress on my store, so please check it out: http://dolldelight.storeenvy.com.

Excuse the red spots on my cheekbone and chin. I've been trying out different products lately, the Clarisonic Plus and Trilogy's Rose Hip Oil. I know the oil causes me to break out, but I just wanted to try it with the Clarisonic. It is a really good moisturizer only my skin seems to be sensitive to it. :(

I tried better full body shots, believe me. And these were the best ones in the bunch. XD It really was a disaster shooting with something heavy on your head and with something that just dangles and bumps things.

What do you think of my eye make up? I like how I was able to outline my eyes without looking like a raccoon! I prefer to do the smokey lower line now because it seems to distract from my dark circles...or maybe the new product I am using is starting to work?

I've got to admit, I have always been so conscious of my dark circles. :( I think they are hereditary though, the sickly, sunken eye look. But I have been using Clarisonic Opal, an eye massaging device for wrinkles which claims to also work for eye puffiness and even dark circles. Honestly, I am itching to return the product so I could just spend the money on fabrics. But then, it seems to be working! I did not have to photoshop away the dark circles this time. I guess life really is a matter of give and take. I give a lot of my time working late at night into jobs that strain my eyes, couple that with what I think is a genetic tired eye look. But hey, I am starting to believe that I found a miracle product! 

So there you have it! Have you used any of the items I mentioned in this post? Also, have you tried the dark mori look? What do you think of the cage skirt?
