Every time you post you're wearing the cutest outfits, I gotta know where do you buy your clothes? But your aesthetic is always 💯💕🌸 and I fall in love every single time

Thank u so much 💗

I collect clothes from so many different sources but here are my frequents: Target (cute bralettes and wild fable has some cute stuff but only up to a 3X I believe), Kohls (comfy basics), MyViolet (a pastel themed women owned ethical clothing brand), and lots of thrifting! Most of my favorite items were thrifted! I know that's not helpful so if there's ever a particular thing I'm wearing that u wanna know the brand of just ask and I'll lyk asap ^__^

Also, for all the plus size fashion freakz, I really recommend just getting a needle and thread and some scrap lace or ribbon or fabric that you can augment clothes with! Add bows with pins or a corset front/back to otherwise plain clothes. Get creative!!

will never forgive the genshin playerbase for hating on ayakas skin like they release a lovely pastel classic/sweet lolita outfit that actually looks like something a real living woman could wear and it would be pretty and functional and ppl fucking trashed it like. faith in humanity lowkey gone forever tbh.

its literally the ONLY paid skin i have and everything about it is such a vibe. the braided hair with the flowers. the hat. the butterfly motifs. the back ribbon (!!!!!!!!!). its sooo good but god forbid women wear anything fun

I don’t believe in fate, and I don’t believe that objects have souls, but sometimes the universe is serendipitous.

When I bought this collar, all I knew was that it was a) definitely Edwardian, and b) it was mine, because somehow it had not yet been claimed even though it had been over an hour since it was listed and this seller’s listings get claimed within seconds of posting. It arrived. It was Edwardian. It was so fucking beautiful. The lace is soft and airy and seemingly delicate, but the threads are in excellent condition.

And like I mentioned before, I am not shy about using antique textiles. I did know that I didn’t want to cut into the lace, because it had finished edges and was not an infinite repeat in the way that lace edgings or insertions often are—the flat yoke and the flounce were both discrete pieces. So I spent several hours painstakingly taking out the original seam holding the two together. This was thankfully a simple running stitch and I was able to remove it without damaging the lace at all. The flounce was long:

It is folded in half in the image above. Much too long for me to sew into any kind of blouse without cutting it. So I toyed with the idea of making it into a frilly Edwardian petticoat.

Guys.

Guys. It is exactly the right length. That is some serious serendipity at work.

frequently I will say to myself, especially in tourist-heavy times, i would like a more serious job at a more serious museum where members of the public do not keep touching me inappropriately

but, unfortunately, my coworkers are so fun and kind and have created such a positive little pocket of queer community that idk if i could bear to leave unless something big changes

TERF: What's in your pants!?

Me: I mean, I don't actually wear pants? I wear dresses pretty exclusively.

TERF: Fine. But then what's under your skirt!?

Me: You. Mean. My. Petticoat? And under that is more petticoat. Because that's how petticoats work. I can actually keep going with just layers of petticoat alone, for awhile. Because I'm more stubborn than you are patient. And petticoats have more layers than your average onion.

((I don't really leave the house unless I'm going to the office or doing a grocery run so I decided to dress up a bit today. Bump up my confidence and self esteem a bit cause wearing baggy comfy clothes apparently takes a bit of a toll on how you perceive yourself))

I'm making a vaguely late victorian/edwardian-ish petticoat and it's the first time I'm making something by machine and holy shit y'all this is going SO fast.

but also not fast enough.

[garlic-sauc3]

why have we, as humans, ever stopped wearing so many layers of clothes

[coeursainte]

honestly, despite my overall adoration for the 18th century and the 1940s (and all those s/tar wa/rs vibes), y'all have no idea how much ev/er after and cindere/lla 2015 have me in an aesthetic chokehold.

I think people should go back to wearing more and looser clothes. Not because of any moral reasons, I just think it's more visually interesting and comfortable.

[dykedykegooses]

objectively, no i wouldn’t want to live in the 18th century. but GOD can you imagine the fit checks. OOTD in colonial america and enlightenment era europe. the tea within and about wealthy families. i’m going insane just thinking about it
