An advert for boohoo keeps showing dresses like this at the moment and I NEED ONE
I managed to nab some beautiful shoes to go with my new dress I’M SO EXCITED FOR IT ALL TO ARRIVE!! All I need now is a nice faux leather jacket to go with it and I’ll have an entire going out outfit (that-I’ll-never-use-but-lets-not-think-about-that-right-now) EXCITING!!

@kittykat8311 you + this dress, mega prettiness
ahhh my god i need it in my life right now
I know ages ago I promised you guys a photo of the dress I bought for our anniversary. Unfortunately I then didn’t actually wear it for our anniversary cos I was way too ill and even if I had I wasn’t active on here then anyway for reasons you already know about so nothing came of that - but I might have a reason (or at least a vague excuse) to wear it tonight so if I do then I’ll try and grab a snap of it then, just in case anyone is still interested ^_^

I love the sleaves omg
Oh my goodness is so beautiful isnt it??
I’ve been looking for an excuse to wear this new dress for ages and no opportunities had presented themselves so I settled on ‘why the fuck not’ and went out for an exciting day of pizza, shopping and a movie with my boo 😘❤
I finished my beautiful lacy beast! It took me a few months, 11 yards of cotton sateen, forty yards of lace, and many hours of hand sewing, but it’s done!
This dress is based on this ensemble from the 1860s. The dress is made of cotton sateen with tulle, chantilly lace, alencon lace, embroidered lace, and beaded details. The vast majority of it was hand sewn.
The bodice is lined with cotton, lightly boned, and laces up the back. The skirt closes with hooks and weighs eight pounds thanks to all the embellishments. It has a twenty four inch waist and is worn over a steel boned corset, hoop skirt, hip roll, and petticoat. All of which were made by me!
It was a process, with lots of ups and downs but i’m really pleased with the end result. Construction notes and more photos can be found here!
I picked up a new jacket in the sales! Plus a few more practical things for the house and a few less practical things for myself, like this camera tripod! Bless finally having a little disposable income for the first time ever 😅🖤
Completely forgot this playsuit existed! Found it lost in the back of a cupboard 😅🖤
Channelling some goth badassery for a little role-playing the other day 😉🖤
