HOW TO: Become a Deer Girl

Art By Teagan White

My boyfriend has constantly described my tumblr as "a mix of vintage stuff and girls dressed up as deer." That is very accurate. For some reason, I very much like the idea of going around in very adorable clothes with a pair of antlers on my head. (Yes, I know that female deer do NOT have antlers, but I am going to ignore that fact at the moment (´∀`))

This "How To" post will be ideas and suggestions if I ever wanted of fulfill my dream of living in a cottage and becoming a Deer Girl. You do NOT have to follow my "How To" exactly, and if you have any suggestions to add, feel free to comment below! I would love to hear from you!

And now, I will be going from top to the bottom.

1. Head

The first step to making yourself as a pretty Deer Girl is a pair of fancy antlers. I know that there are plenty of shops that sell antlers online. You can go and get yourself a pretty, glittery pair of antlers with a fantasy/storybook feel, or you can buy a natural pair of antlers that look real! (The pair on the right are actually REAL antlers!) You can even make your own pair of antlers to your from clay or paper mache.

2. Face

To me, becoming a deer girl is a way to experiment with your face. You can have a natural look to your makeup or you can dress up your look by using this Halloween makeup tutorial below! Of course, there are plenty of other tutorials out there to use! Explore and see what you like best!

3. Clothes

If I am indeed taking inspiration from the deer who live in the forest, then I would have to say that a majority of a Deer Girl's wardrobe should consist of natural browns, tans, creams, and whites. I certainly took inspiration from Mori Girl fashions, which is a style I absolutely love. In this collection I made on polyvore, I added dresses, skirts, blouses, and shoes that I believe would be perfect items to wear as a Deer Girl. (Just as a side note, items that are found on polyvore are usually very expensive! Unless you have the budget, try to find similar items for a lot less!)

Lots of cute clothes and floral prints! (｡♥‿♥｡)

Well, that's it for today! I hope you liked this "How To"! Leave comments telling me what you liked/what I could do better for my next "How To" post! Thanks for reading my little Deer Girls!
