What are you wearing today??

[Claireg]

oooo Dinerman, we could make a thread for making up stories to go with your picture, mine would be dark macabre i think, the background screams it!

 

[Panache]

I am a volunteer at my children's school library. I thought it would be fun to read "Twas the Night before Christmas" to the classes in period attire so I wore my Dicken's Faire outfit.

The kids liked it a lot but sadly they associate top hats only with stage magicians and Willy Wonka. I did had fun explaining how once this sort of dress was the norm.

Here's a version that might work for a Christmas card

Happy Holidays to the fine Ladies and Gentlemen of the Fedora Lounge

Cheers

Here I am today, I haven't dressed vintage in a while so I was pretty happy with myself all day

Grant Fan, you look GREAT! I thought you had a major facial injury just a month ago? You can't see it AT ALL!!!

I did it was just about a month and a half ago. And thank you that makes me feel great. I worry about people seeing the scar all the time.

If it was visible, it would have just given you further personality and a sense of danger...! Too bad, not happening!

Haha I think I am please not to have further personality and a sense of danger in the form of a mark on my face. I like to keep it a secret lol

And you do it very well--I was looking, and even having some idea of where it was I couldn't spot it!

On the other hand, try having to deal with seeing this *points at self* face in the mirror first thing every morning... and it only gets worse if I don't have the shades hiding my eyes when I do. (Together with my background, hence my "ugly as sin, and not particularly good-looking either" commentary...lol)

Grant fan lovely as ever!:eusa_clap

Well as you know where to look I am pleased you can't see it, that elevates some of my worry about when I see Paul at the end of the month, he has yet to see it in person (obviously).

Grant fan lovely as ever!:eusa_clap

Thank you darling I appreciate it.

The pic is a bit fuzzy, but this is a corduroy suit I had made while in Afghanistan - the only vintage bits are the old viyella shirt and the Irish wool "lampwick" tie and the tweed cap.

I was looking.....I couldn't spot it!

How could you, between those eyes and that smile. [huh]

"These are garments, Mr. Cratchit. Garments were invented by the human race as a protection against the cold. Once purchased, they may be used indefinitely for the purpose for which they are intended. Coal burns. Coal is momentary and coal is costly. There will be no more coal burned in this office today, is that quite clear, Mr. Cratchit?"

Not to mention the beautiful fiery red hair, for most... I saw a photo almost right after the incident, and while it wasn't Owen Zastava Pitt bad or my clear-down-to-the-bone-ugly, it was definitely more than a Harry Potter. Good to see that it's healed so well! :eusa_clap

And here's a closeup of my shoes. I love them! They may not be period but since heels are hard for me on campus, they work well I think.

I'm still kind of new to dressing vintage, but I really like how it makes me feel.

I LOVVVVVVVVVE your shoes! You look fantastic.

My brand new.....
