Victorian party writeup

More for my own benefit, since it's pictures from everyone else and therefore have already been seen! Wimpy blog post link.

I'm pretty amused about how hopeless I am with white dresses...the skirt of this thing is absolutely covered in marks! It's probably due to my indiscriminate sitting. Filthy tea house porch steps! Sure! Squishy lawn? Plop! I don't mind - as I've said, I do make these costumes to be lived in. :)

(It's like when members of The Public ask me, slightly horrified, if I know my train is dragging in the dirt/leaves/filthy road?? Yup!)

And the not-matching sleeves and neck yoke don't look too bad. Woohoo!

You are totally adorable. I'd be the one following you around with my scotch guard can spraying your hem when you weren't looking and whipping out a towel for you to sit on unnoticed as you plop down on the grass and rigging up some kind of rudimentary pulley system to automatically keep your skirts off the ground and surreptitiously rubbing you with a shout wipe and a lint roller. LIKE A NINJA!

This made me laugh so hard! You'd be the best ninja-ladies'-maid EVAR. xD
