I changed my drawing style completely for my portfolio... I really wanted my bounded book to be something that I would be truly proud of. Also, once a book is bound you can't really take anything out or put anything in sooooo basically wanted it to be more profesh. College's fashion show last night went down with almost no glitches. I am really happy, tired, sore, relieved, calm and content all in one. I am no longer a student, guys!

Next on my list: revamped logo & an online store. But first I need to take a holiday. :)

Redesign. Refocus. Restart.

I initially started this blog for the sake of starting a blog. Not generally the best way to start a blog. So, what I'm going to do is basically reboot* Qinoom. Have it be more focused so that posts aren't so...scattered. I feel like this should be more cohesive? I'll try not to make this a personal blog thing. I would obvs still post my many opinions on things but I think I need to stick to a sort of formula. Hopefully it doesn't get too repetitive** and mundane, though. In summary: new blog design***, focused subject matter (fashion, my designs/"artwork", music), and I'll try to always type like a lady. :)

In other news, 3rd year is a crapload of work.**** I mean, it's not like I wasn't expecting that but I feel like I can't breathe sometimes. Then I just do nothing. I'm a stupid.

Here is a song for you. 
Goodnight.
xx




*4 words
**5?
***attempting to do that myself, wish me luck
****I already broke away from the formula. dang it. I kind of already saw myself not sticking to said formula :l

I can draw. kind of.

These are my fashion figure templates that I'll be using this year. I'll probably use it for the rest of my life.* I did it in Illustrator and it literally took me like 10 minutes.** I can't draw to save my life so you can imagine how proud I am of these babies. Yeah, I know, I'm the worst fashion designer ever. WHATEVS. I was partially inspired by Mr T. Burton. That guy, he's a genius.




*a lie.
**why am I lying so much?

My feet are running like the wind

The song in this video (and this video), is too amazeballs for it to NOT get it's own post.* The song is Ritual Unions by Little Dragon.
