Click on the pictures or links to go to the original images.

I love this girl's cosplay! It's much truer to Rainbow Brite's outfit and so much less trashy than those gross "adult" costumes that are floating all over the internet.

I hope you all enjoy my little find. c:

HIIII~~!! AL here :) from LA

SOoOOoOoooo..! I know there's no sales on this comm, so I won't include a link to this auction. But!! I do want to share this lovely jacket I've made because it's super SPANK! and maybe it'll inspire you babes

After stitching Barbie onto this pink jacket,
I surrounded her with some fancy blue frill.
I adorned Barbie's ears with sexy acrylic jeweled earrings,
which have been embezzled with transparent thread.
I also put shiny heart, star, and pearly sequins on her puffy sleeves !

Have a sweet weekend!

Decorating my Dorm With Spank! Style Posters!

Tue, 19 Aug 2008 16:27:34 GMT

Hey Lovleys~

In t-minus 9 hours I'll be heading out to LA to start my first year in college! I'll be living in a dorm, and of course I want it to be the cutest thing ever. I want to put up some Spank! inspired posters using the Rasterbator (this thing is so cool, if you don't already know about it, definitely check it out!)

I know there are the obvious things like Barbie, Popples, Strawberry Shortcake, etc... But I was wondering if you guys could help me find some other cute photos that remind you of Spank! style that I could use as a poster for my dorm!

or even

Basically, show me your favorite Spank! (inspired?) pictures!

I have faith in you!

Some new clothing!

Anyway enjoy!

I've been so excited about the Olympics starting that I decided to wear my vintage LA '84 Olympic shirt today! I'm from Southern California, and when I was a few months old, they had the Olympics in LA. My dad went to see the soccer match and bought me this shirt. It then hung in my closet for about 21 years until I discovered it hanging there a few years ago, haha.

I love how the shirt is just so 80s!

The back

I thought my headphones matched pretty well XD

In her world, it sure is... ♥

I found some really cute and colorful Strawberry Shortcake posters at a discount/$1 store.
I had to get one of each version! ♥ ^______^ ♥
Ignore the spotty look due to the plastic which will remain.
I would love to display them in my room but there's no ~~breathing~~ space.
It's better that way, to keep them safe and crease free. ♥

I had these heart bracelets for about a year and never knew exactly what to do with them. I think the exact kinds were in a picture in a Spank!! blog and it finally gave me the inspiration I needed:

The butterfly comes from a hair clip :D

These two are different but I think you'll like them too:

I made them out of an old (Lisa Frank brand, I think) stencil ;3
