@xxsmilingdeerxx we need to have a serious chat about this.. What the actually fuck?! Do you not read my articles and magazines. I literally OWN hell's Vogue and EnVee .. My face and tips are EVERYWHERE and you still pay no heed?!

There is nothing "rude" about holding people accountable and pushing them to become great.

If you truly cared about someone...

Wouldn't you want them to have the ability to build an amazing life for themselves?

We think so.

...But what do most people do when they see someone they love fall short of the actions and standards necessary to build the life they want?

They do what's "nice" by being gentle and accepting of their compromising behavior.

Is that really what it means to care about someone?

Is it avoiding the difficult and necessary conversation to hold them accountable to the promises they've made to themselves?

...Or is it holding the line so they can feel truly fulfilled down the road?

Understand that being "nice" is not being nice at all.

Being "nice" is cheating the people you love out of becoming the person they want to become and building the life they want to build.

That includes yourself.

Real love and care are derived from your willingness to push them to keep their promises.

We’re never hard on the people because we don't care.

We’re hard on people because we do.

Can you say the same?

Okay, question for you- is Eloise’s hair tied at the end and curly, or in a ponytail and curly, or is there no tie and I’m just blind?

I was going to answer this quickly but I am EXTRA & had to do a write-up of her hair (sorry🙏)

First, she normally does wear her hair in a braid!💓 I do NOT know how to draw braids nor do I want to learn, so I do my weird way that looks terrible and I really should spend like 30 min researching😔🙏

When I remember, I like to add the bow but I forget a lot🥲

Her hair is CRAZY and thick, and has been the bane of her existence her whole life. I’m just channeling her inner Black (she is like a great-aunt or something of Sirius and Bellatrix) so OBVIOUSLY i had to give her amazing hair.

Since she is a Proper Young Victorian Lady™️ who spent the last 5 years at a muggle finishing school, she NEVER wears her hair down, and felt scandalized the first weeks at Hogwarts, seeing girls her age wearing TROUSERS😨 and having their hair DOWN😳 and although she’s used to it now, she still feels uncomfortable thinking of herself doing it.

Sebastian daydreams about it all the time though😇🙏

Some quick doodles I sketched up for this así.

1) her crazy hair when it’s down💓🫶

2) Imelda LOVES doing Eloise’s hair. She’s never really had girl friends before, and the ritual of gossiping/doing hair/hanging out reminds Imelda of her childhood bc her mom used to do her hair and tell stories🥹🥹 and Eloise has NEVER had friends before OR the experience with her own (awful) mother so she LOVES IT TOO💓💓💓 (Imelda teaches her Spanish some nights)

Your designs are really cool! I hope i can design outfits like you for my own characters, do you have any design tips or something you could share that could help improve design skills?

Thank you! I'm still working to improve, Naruto outfits are simply my comfort zone and I need to leave it more.

But I like to always have lots of references. Either studying fashion history, cultural styles, or having colors in mind (like color theory and stuff). And just look for reference pictures, for accessories, hairstyles, layers, prints...

And after that, when I take everything and put on a character, there's still a lot of trial and error, adding and taking off details, changing colors (a lot!)... It does help that I find most of the process a lot of fun too.

This might be fairly common knowledge, but I know I was shocked and appalled when I learned it, so I thought I’d share it with tumblr at large: sometimes those fake pockets… aren’t actually fake!

Now, obviously this isn’t a universal rule, but for certain garments, like blazers and dress pants, the pockets DO exist, they’re just stitched closed so that they look better on the hanger in the store. Which I personally think is a stupid reason, but that’s what we’re dealing with.

So say you have this stupid fake pocket:

First, check inside the garment for the pocket bag. This will show you if there actually is a pocket there, or if it’s just a decorative placket, in which case you’re doomed to suffer.

(If the garment has a lining sometimes you won’t be able to find the pocket bag because it’s between the lining and the body fabric. Use your best judgment for if you’re willing to try to find a pocket that may or may not be there)

Great! You definitely have a pocket. Now take a seam ripper (or a pair of scissors you know you can be accurate with) and find the stitches holding the pocket opening closed. Usually they’re easiest to get at if you go into the opening as if to put something in the pocket.

Now break that thread.

Look! An opening!

Carefully do that along the entire pocket, pull out the broken threads, and you have yourself a real pocket!

(It might still be pitifully small, but it is in fact a pocket)

For a more impressive result, check out this blazer:

No pocket

And now my whole hand fits!

New JSK! Black dress with white on the bottom…my beloved

A point of contention is I don’t like prints very much 💀 but I was rlly drawn to classic/gothic type ones with architecture & minimal color. I decided I wanted a black dress w white print with silent moon & iron gate being contenders

Not that I needed these particular ones but I wanted ones that look similar. I eventually found Ruban Sacré by Juliette et Justine & ended up liking it better! It has no text & I love the lace design even moreso than a cathedral print since it’s abstract. It was a splurge but after a month of thinking about it, I went for it. Tbh though I went kind of insane when it arrived💀

It was way too big & not flattering at all. You can’t see it here but the bust was gaping like crazy. It all not a huge deal but I was in a mood & also I’ve had the hardest time finding dresses that I like on me. I’ve tried skirts, OPs, and now this JSK. This would be the fourth piece I’ve tried and have not liked the look of. So for it to arrive & look so frumpy was hard because I rlly love the ideas behind lolita & have had a hard time finding my look.

That’s why I usually wear ouji. I love ouji but I don’t want to feel like I can only wear ouji (I have some insecurities that pop up sometimes & this fashion has not helped 💀)

With advice from a few ppl, I took it in. I added to the darts in the back and added a whole new seam in the front. That’s the most drastic but I think it’s only noticeable if you know, and like I said…it was gaping badly. I feel dramatic but I was seriously so upset about this dress 💀 I thought I’d need to shorten the skirt too but after doing this it was ok!

Before & after! It made a big difference & I’m so happy 😭 like relieved. Glad to have found a good black dress with white on bottom. This isn’t the full coord I had in mind, but it’s the start of it. My friend and I are planning to get tea soon. I’ll wear it then!

Do you have any tips for a trans fem trying to get into makeup? You’re really good at it!

look at pictures of other ppl doing makeup. look at other people doing makeup generally. when you’re outside or spending time with ppl.. take a little time to just Observe their makeup. you’d be surprise at how DIFFERENTLY a lot of people do it

and then. just practice…. i’d say the WORST way to do it is to desperately try to find tutorials or whatever. get a feel for the basics yourself first, and THEN look into tutorials.

How can I still dress cute when it’s hot or cold outside

Hey there Anon! So for both hot and cold weather the thing you’re gonna wanna do is layering and accessorizing!

For hot weather:

While adding layers seems counterintuitive it can help make your outfit more interesting

Lighter layers also help keeping your body temperature in check and allow breezes to cool you down

Accessory’s make every outfit look more put together and in hot weather hats or other headwear can also protect you from the sun

Here are some basic outfit formulas (I kept them pretty neutral because they’re just supposed to give you ideas and you can expend upon them with your own wardrobe)

For cold weather:

Layering again, but this time thick layers that still allow air circulation

For jewelry I would focus on necklaces and rings as your wrists will be covered most of the time

You can easily transform summer clothes for colder weather by layering with tights/turtleneck/sweater/cardigan

Try to create a straight silhouette so that the outfit looks layered and not bulky

Utilise typical cold weather accessories like gloves/scarfs/earmuffs/hat

Some more outfit formulas (again neutral)

Notes for extremely cold weather:

Thermal/long underwear

Head controls the temperature of the rest of your body so always wear a hat

Warm layers that can easily be taken off once you’re inside/ can easily be put on again

=> Accessories and layers make every outfit more interesting and if you do it the right way they also can wether or not it’s hot or cold outside. At the end of the day it however only matters that you feel comfortable and wear the things you love!

Thanks for the question Anon ♥️

Sustainable Fashion: A New Era for Style and Responsibility

Introduction

The fashion industry is one of the largest contributors to environmental degradation, accounting for significant water usage, greenhouse gas emissions, and waste generation. In response to these challenges, sustainable fashion has emerged as a solution to balance style with environmental and social responsibility. This movement seeks to reform how clothing is designed, produced, consumed, and discarded, making it a key player in the fight against climate change and resource depletion.

The Problem with Fast Fashion

Fast fashion, characterized by mass production of inexpensive and trendy clothing, has dominated the industry for decades. While it has made fashion accessible to millions, its environmental and social costs are staggering.

Resource Depletion: Producing textiles, particularly cotton and synthetic fibers, demands vast amounts of water and energy. For instance, making one cotton T-shirt can require up to 2,700 liters of water.

Carbon Emissions: The fashion industry accounts for approximately 10% of global carbon emissions, with synthetic fibers derived from fossil fuels being major contributors.

Waste Generation: Over 92 million tons of textile waste are generated annually, much of which ends up in landfills or incinerators.

Exploitation of Labor: Fast fashion often relies on low-cost labor in developing countries, where workers may face unsafe conditions and unfair wages.

What is Sustainable Fashion?

Sustainable fashion aims to mitigate these issues by adopting practices that respect the environment, uphold ethical labor standards, and encourage mindful consumption. It incorporates several principles:

Eco-Friendly Materials: Using organic, biodegradable, or recycled materials such as organic cotton, hemp, bamboo, and recycled polyester reduces reliance on virgin resources.

Ethical Production: Ensuring fair wages, safe working conditions, and labor rights for workers throughout the supply chain.

Waste Reduction: Prioritizing durability, repairability, and recyclability of garments to minimize waste.

Transparency: Providing consumers with information about sourcing, production processes, and environmental impact fosters accountability.

Innovations Driving Sustainable Fashion

The sustainable fashion movement is fueled by innovation and creativity, showcasing how technology and tradition can coexist to reduce environmental harm.

Textile Recycling Technologies: Advanced recycling methods can break down used textiles into their raw fibers, enabling the production of new fabrics without relying on virgin materials.

Alternative Fabrics: Lab-grown materials, such as mushroom leather (mycelium) and algae-based textiles, offer sustainable alternatives to traditional animal and synthetic products.

Digital Fashion: Virtual clothing, designed for social media or gaming, eliminates physical production, addressing issues of waste and resource use.

The Role of Brands

Brands play a crucial role in steering the fashion industry toward sustainability. Many companies are adopting innovative practices to reduce their environmental footprint:

Patagonia: Known for its environmental activism, Patagonia uses recycled materials and offers a repair program to extend the life of its products.

Stella McCartney: The brand prioritizes cruelty-free and eco-friendly materials, avoiding leather, fur, and PVC.

H&M Conscious Collection: A line featuring garments made from organic or recycled materials, showcasing the brand’s commitment to sustainable fashion.

However, the rise of “greenwashing” poses a challenge. Some companies market themselves as eco-friendly without making significant changes to their practices, making it essential for consumers to critically assess claims.

Consumer Role in Sustainable Fashion

Consumers hold significant power in driving the shift toward sustainability through their choices and behaviors:

Mindful Consumption: Opting for quality over quantity and avoiding impulse purchases can reduce demand for fast fashion.

Caring for Clothes: Properly washing, repairing, and storing garments extends their lifespan, reducing the need for new purchases.

Second-Hand Shopping: Buying pre-owned clothing from thrift stores or online platforms reduces waste and promotes circular fashion.

Supporting Ethical Brands: Choosing brands that prioritize sustainability and transparency encourages the industry to adopt better practices.

Challenges to Sustainable Fashion

Despite its promise, sustainable fashion faces several challenges:

Cost: Sustainable garments often come with a higher price tag due to ethical practices and eco-friendly materials, making them less accessible to some consumers.

Scale: Transitioning to sustainable practices on a global scale requires significant investment and collaboration across the supply chain.

Consumer Awareness: Many consumers remain unaware of the environmental impact of their clothing choices or the benefits of sustainable fashion.

The Future of Sustainable Fashion

The future of sustainable fashion lies in collaboration, innovation, and education. Governments, businesses, and consumers must work together to create a circular economy where waste is minimized, and resources are reused. Key developments include:

Legislation: Policies like the European Union’s “Green Deal” are pushing for stricter regulations on waste management and sustainable production in the fashion industry.

Education: Raising awareness about the environmental impact of fashion can empower consumers to make informed choices.

Technological Advancements: Continued innovation in materials science and recycling technologies will make sustainable fashion more accessible and cost-effective.

Conclusion

Sustainable fashion is more than a trend; it is a necessary evolution to address the pressing environmental and social challenges posed by the traditional fashion industry. By embracing eco-friendly materials, ethical practices, and mindful consumption, we can create a future where fashion reflects not just personal style but also a commitment to the planet and its people.
