Lady Gaga - a how to guide...

Had a brilliant weekend. My friends and I took a road trip up to Cardiff to celebrate our friend

Claire's 22nd Birthday! The theme being...POPSTARS and MOVIESTARS!

Ever the optimist, I decided from the off set that I was going to attempt Lady Gaga. A challenge in itself.

Let's see some of her famous looks...

Then I started having second thoughts.

But up for a challenge, I attempted this look...

Easy enough right? Here's how I did it...

Dress

So, I got some 3 pack of thick gold card (£4) and made approx. 20 4-sided diamond's in various shapes and sizes, fat and skinny.

I then blew the dust off my old sewing kit from Uni and sewed all the diamonds across the left strap and bust and another cluster on the right hip. TA DA.

I also added some sticky gems (which I got from Poundland!) to a pair of old costume glasses to recreate 'THE FAME' glasses. Threw on some fingerless gloves (£1.99 H&M) and a standard Lady Gaga Bow Wig (£10) and there we have it...

A less exuberant Gaga, but a Gaga nonetheless!

Me and the Bday girl!

Avril, Gaga, Katy and Amy
