(To celebrate being able to actually POST to LJ)
- black poooointy toe flats
- black & red stripey stockings
- black bloomers
- black chemise
- burgundy overbust Victorian corset (worn purely as underpinnings)
- black super-full petticoat
- blood red velvet circle skirt
- black velvet custom made jacket by BlueJay: high mandarin collar, thirteen shiny black buttons down the front, princess-seams, a skirt that has a scalloped pointy batwing hem, and belled sleeves (with the same batwing theme) that have a blood-red satin underlayer that peeks out about 3" below the velvet (and also follows the batwing theme)
- hair up in spikey buns
- usual makeup, blood red lipstick
I love love LOVE this jacket. BlueJay did a wonderful job of translating my absolutely dreadful stick-figure drawing into a beautiful Gorey-esque jacket.
In Other News - Dear Powers That Be; I'd prefer NOT to work late again tonight. Thank you.

Seriously, the jacket sounds lovely. I think you should posts photos now.
