Dress for sale!

For sale! One brand-new “Voodoo Heart” dress from Hotrod Voodoo! Size XL: bust 42”, waist 34”, skirt length 24”.

This is an absolutely fantastic dress. I was very excited to get a stripey summer dress; remember how I had been looking for one? Aaaaand then it arrived in the mail, I tried it on, and discovered that this style of dress just wouldn’t work on my short-waisted figure. (Not to mention that I knew it was going to be a few inches too big when I ordered it, but optimistically thought that I would have no problems tailoring it. Now that I’ve seen the dress, I know any attempts on my part to alter it would result in frustration and tears, and the dress does not deserve to be put through that by me.)

So! Super-darling stripey dress, made by the talented Leigh-Ann of Hotrod Voodoo! It can be yours for $80 + postage.



Want it? Leave me a comment!

I had to look and see why you hand not just called me, and now I know. *sigh*

When is a good time to come bring you soaps this week? I have 14 bars.

Blast and damn. Why oh why did I move?

[identity profile] cupcake-goth.livejournal.com 2008-07-23 04:04 am (UTC)(link)
For some very good reasons, you doofus. :)

Oh, right. I forgot.

Dang. If it doesn't work on you, then it probably won't work on me either.

I can't remember if you're longer-waisted than I am. It's about 1" too long through the waist for me.

[identity profile] icprncs.livejournal.com 2008-07-23 04:13 am (UTC)(link)
Eh, I'm pretty short-waisted, and the waist measurement might be a bit, erm, close-fitted for me anyway. Better it go to someone it would definitely fit. :)

(I actually bought the halter dress from Newport News and am going to see what I can make of it. If I can't sort it into a workable dress, I'll just cut the skirt off. It was on sale.)

Yeah. That wouldn't work on you, even were it not too long through the waist. The way the accents cut is a no-go.

I'm short and round (and still self-conscious about my upper arms) or I'd go for it.
I'm even in Seattle! ~mourns~

hmmmm, I'd like to try it :)

Sooo, would you be able to swing by my house on Thursday evening? Or perhaps Friday evening after about 8-ish?

[identity profile] durtro93.livejournal.com 2008-07-23 06:43 pm (UTC)(link)
I can come over Thursday evening, but before 8 pm (have to be to the club by 8 to open). Same thing on Friday, so that wouldn't work...

it looks fabulous :D

[identity profile] cupcake-goth.livejournal.com 2008-07-23 06:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Thursday evening, maybe 7-ish?

[identity profile] durtro93.livejournal.com 2008-07-23 07:10 pm (UTC)(link)
That will work for me - please remind me of your addy again? It's been several years since I've been to your house.

Send me mail at jilli (at) gothic-charm-school (dot) com, and I'll send you the address.

Super cute! Todd might kill me, but maybe I can try it on :) Just for fun ;)

So cute! Unfortunately, if it is too short waisted for you then I'm doomed.

Hey, just want to remind you to check the box of lost jewelry for me.

[identity profile] cupcake-goth.livejournal.com 2008-07-23 06:40 pm (UTC)(link)
I will, sweetie. Don't worry.

You probably already knew this, but H&M is opening in Southcenter tomorrow (http://www.nwsource.com/shopping/fashion/hms-cheap-chic-finally-arrives-seattle-westfield-southcenter-opening-july-25).
