The next time I put one of these together (not counting the one that is sitting on the sewing table, half-finished), I will try to remember to take pictures and write up a tutorial. :)
From Retroscope Fashions. The Gothic Lolita Corset skirt is a great base to attach things to. I also really like the Dolly Bustle skirt from them, but the Gothic Lolita Corset skirt is a skosh less expensive.
(I also sometimes make skirts that are very similar to the Dolly Bustle skirt, but when I work out cost of materials & time spent, buying skirts from Retroscope is usually my better option.)
You look fabulous, as always! You're so lovely, and your wardrobe makes me wish you were a size 14/16 so I could beg to be dressed up for a gothy night out.
Also, I saw this and thought of you: http://www.etsy.com/listing/90573358/long-pink-rooster-saddle-feather-pink?ref=v1_other_2
It may not suit your tastes, but I figured "It's several shades of pink, has a cameo, and is five dollars. Maybe Ms. Jilli would like it!"

Shoes!
What shoes are you wearing, here? They look like a Fluevog Swordfish tip, but I haven't seen ones with that kind of buckle...

Re: Shoes!
You have a good eye! Tose are vintage Fluevog Swordfish flats, and I believe they're from from the late 80s/early 90s.
