Today I chose my outfit surrounding my denim vest. My mom had stitched
this skull on this what was denim jacket years ago back when I was in
middle school and obsessed with Pirates of the Caribbean.
Like seriously
I was obsessed.
I knew every word to the movie, I had to buy every type
of P.O.T.C. merchandise known to man ( I own a 18"action figure of Captain Jack Sparrow that makes sounds when it detects motion, or at lest that is what the box claims. I wouldn't know because I never opened it because I bought it with the intention of keeping it in mint condition forever.), I attended the P.O.T.C.premiere for movies 2 and 4, and I bought anything that had to do with pirates in general.
I would even spend hours reading about real pirates. I don't remember why, but I
remember that Captain Kidd was my favorite.
Anyways, when my mom had stitched the skull on the jacket I was kind of
coming down from my Pirates of the Caribbean obsession (only to be
replaced briefly by The O.C. and then finally over to Lost) and not only
that, but she had stitched it on a jacket that was way to big for me at the time so I
never wore it.
So recently I found this jacket and it brought back a
lot of middle school memories.
Although a lot of people hate middle
school because it is filled with a lot of
useless drama, middle school was some my favorite years in school.
Anyways, back to the jacket. I really wanted to wear it;
however, it was still too big. So to make it more wearable, I cut
off the sleeves and I'm planning to add studs and spikes to make it look even cooler.
Thank you to all of you who wrote nice things about my Photoshop project. It really sucked when I got to class this morning and realizing that I had never saved it to my flash drive. But luckily I had saved every image I used and I had remembered what I had done so recreating it only took me an hour. :)
