Wander With Alice

Too be honest, I had the hardest time coming up with the background. I started out thinking I should create Mickey's Clubhouse and have the different characters be in the background, but the more I thought about it I realized that that would take me forever to finish, and I had about four weeks before the videos were to be uploaded, and one of those weeks was going to be spent in Kentucky for a friend's wedding, so technically I only had three weeks to finish everything!  So I created this blue polka-dot background inspired by the ribbon I chose for Minnie's bow instead. It was simple, cute and very Minnie! The next few things I had to worry about was the costume and the makeup. 

Minnie's Costume is actually extremely quick and easy to make! I was happily surprised that I was able to make all the pieces in a day and the outcome turned out the be extremely cute!

I always wanted to do a Minnie Mouse look and I know that this will not be my last! I remember back in the day, Minnie has this sassiness to her that keeps Mickey on his feet. I prefer that Minnie versus the overly sweet Minnie of today, but even so I just love her look and I hope you enjoy my recreation of the look too (human version).

One of my favorite things to watch is Behind the Scenes or Behind the Makings of movies or videos on Youtube. I find it amazing how artist, writers, camera people, makeup artists, actors, basically everyone that is involved in creating a film, or short clip, can create nothing but an idea into a master piece that the public gets to see and enjoy. So I thought why not do the same, and share with you what went behind creating my Disney Snow White Look!

When you think of Snow White, it's hard not to have the Poison Apple and her Red Bow Headband pop in your head. That and her iconic bob hair style is basically Snow White's trademark look. You can not have one without the other.  Instead of going out to buy an exact replica of the Princess's headband and a plain red apple, I decided to create my own. This way I can put my own twist to it and like a control freak I can decide how I want these two objects to look like. 

I was inspired to do this look by e.l.f Disney Snow White Collection that can be found at Walgreens or Drugstore.com . The minute I bumped into the display at the store, I knew I had to do a look on Snow White. So this is what I came up with. The costume itself is not the official Snow White costume, but a more modern version of it. And I happen to like this version more then Snow White's traditional puffy sleeves.
