this is a ruffly skirt i made with jacket lining and old lace.
today seemed a bit rocky.
like something was off.
like the ocean was rushing upon my little boat
or like paper bears were out to get me.
so i thought about foxglove groves
and paper bears sleeping in the flowers.
and i felt just a little bit better. a LITTLE.
my t-shirt is ancient from abercrombie.
it says "guilty" on it in copper beads.
i also cut the daylights out of it.
the fur collar is from a vintage
coat i think.. i found it at a
charity shop and put a
pink ribbon on.

oh, your clothes are just so perfect. i wish you could come and makeover my wardrobe. all of your outfits remind me of fairies ♥
I love how you do your socks up with ribbons. :)
I love your skirt - I always love the skirts you make! They are beautiful!
Fur is such a double sided thing - as a lover of vintage clothing, I think old fur is so pretty, but as a vegan and animal lover, I think fur is despicable. It´s hard, so far the animal lover has won, but I have been fondling some beautiful old fur wraps and collars...
Such a pretty skirt, I almost can't believe you've made it yourself. I love the whole outfit, and those socks with the ribbons are just too cute!
OH my !
I am in love with that skirt you made it's so wonderful !! :)

Malin - glad to here from another vegan on fur! Do you wear leather?
lovely lovely post! xx
thanks everyone :)
i buy fur if its vintage
i dont buy new fur.
i buy vintage
because the poor little
animal gave their life
and i dont want it to be
all for nothing. or a waste.
i still connect with the spirit
of the animal and thank them
whenever i wear the fur.
i know that sounds weird
but i actually thank my fur!
i did it before the photo shoot!
yes. im weird :)
oh how lovely!it looks as if you have just stepped out of narnia :)
