ta-ta - Of course we want to seeee! Any links?

Your wish is my command

In the bag pix, you can see a close-up of the hardware, as well as clouding on the bottom of the bag (a separate piece). This is one of the bad things that can happen to vintage Lucite ... luckily the rest of the bag is fine.

Btw, the way the jacket is made, each pleat in the back opens, if that makes sense. There's also a metallic pewter fringe around each purple square in the tweed (can't really see this in any of the pix) that matches the pewter lame lining. Four very large black buttons in the front.

The skirt, which I don't have a pic of, is a narrow A-line in front, in back there's a yoke, and there's a high box pleat down the back of the skirt with a slit to the knee or so, so it's completely comfortable to walk in.

Also, the lace-up effect on the fishnets (which may be DKNY now that I think about it) crosses just under the bow on the shoes.

what thread do you mean?...
like playing dress up...?
i think i'm a bit old for that......
anyway...
it's not like i'm going to actually walk around the streets dressed like miss havisham...

**we talked about how to wear the stuff in real life...
so in the end...the look is far more subtle..but i still think it's very elegant...
and dark...of course...

 

[Estella*]

i found it, but it's so dark

i think ta-ta is referring to the your fall wardrobe thread ... not sure if that's the correct name of it...

 

[softgrey]

oh...maybe you're right about that thread...
ta-ta...what are you on about?....
