I got mine! Both a green Moon Beam, and a 1939 reissue for work. (No, I didn't need an alarm clock for work, but I love how it looks!)

I used the Moon Beam this morning and it's great. I hate loud alarms and I've been using a CD to wake me up: The Shire theme from Fellowship of the Ring, nearly inaudible volume. But the buttons for setting the alarm time are about to give up the ghost. The flashing light of the Moon Beam is really quite bright, and took about 30 seconds to wake me up. Excellent!

I LOVE the green one!

So here is the suit! They did a cute belt too, but they didn't make it small enough.

Sorry for the vacant look in the eyes!lol I didn't bother and take more shots to look good.

My question is: Do you wiggle like Marilyn when you walk? ;)

Here is a better picture of the skirt I got recently for $15. It has a quilted waistband and front pockets. The waistband is nice - comes up higher in the front. It's a full circle skirt - I think it would look better with a petticoat.

I also got this shrug recently at H&M. It's viscose and very, very drapey. In fact, I had to go back and get the black one I'm wearing in the photo above!

Wow I'll bet you're over the moon about your suit, it looks terrific and someone should be writing you a femme fatale role right now.

The waist shortening really suits you and your uber-cute-petite self!;) The fitting looks great. It's a shame about the belt. Can you get it altered?

Could I be a royal pain in the proverbial and ask if there is any chance that you could take a close up pic of the jacket, I'm still struggling to get an idea of the fabric. I would be forever in your debt !!!!!!

Thank you very much, of course you can, it is from ebay, where this tailor can make lots of different suits and dresses for you, for a great price. the store is called TopRunway.

I am sure a regular tailor can add holes in the fabric belt for me. Do you want a close up of the fabric or just of the jacket? The fabric is very soft, has a light stretch, the same with the lining.

.. And I am sure that Femme Fatale role is waiting in my mailbox!! :D

Darhling - A close up of the jacket would be terrific...... if you don't mind. Does the fabric have any shine to it? Thanks honey!

Fleur - That would be terrific thanks, and don't worry I forget things all the time too!:)

I'll recharge my cam and do it later.. the fabric does not have any shine to it, I am thinking close to 100% cotton because of the feel, but there is a little stretch in it that makes the fit so good.!
