For drama I did a scene today with he who must not be named... i.e. idiot who makes me look like a fool.
Gawud it was aweful.
Anyways long story short he didn't dress in character and I did... typical. I was supposed to be a teenager in East Texas in the 50's.
It took forever (forever ever, forever ever?) to decide what to wear. Eventually narrowed it down to these two options.
cardigan - grandma's, kilt skirt - mom's, heels - Charle's Jourdan
Liked this one more, but doesn't read as teenager/ teeny bopper enough. The skirt is so cool. Evidently, it can be worn inside out too.t-shirt - H&M, skirt - vintage, belt - vintage
This was more girly and all, so I stuck with that. Even though the scene went terribly, all the nice compliments about my outfit made up for it a little bit.
Even if you didn't tell me TO MY FACE (yeah say it beez), I still captured those compliments and stored them in my good things knapsack like the invisible karate ninja that I am.

Alaalalaalaso (also) I recieved a fricking sweet gift from my grandmammy a few weeks ago but was hesistant to post about it.
She gave me a fly dress...
Aaah the glory. It was her honeymoon dress from the late 50's. Imagine above the knee perfect hourglass figure barbie shape dress coverend in trim and sequins.
When I wear this dress you're gonna be all "LIFE ALERT, life alert! I just saw something mean spicey hot and I can't get up!". Why? Because I be looking damn fine in my gettup.
I'm only giving a preview because I'll probably end up wearing it for Ball... that is if I remain the exact same weight/size for the next 5 months which is unlikely. All I can say is the dress is like butta, a big stick of butta.
