Slowly getting Chase's pics uploaded. Here's a couple of Peggy from thursday: I tell you, taking those shoulder pads out made a huge difference. My neck doesn't look so short now. Chase & I found an abandoned nook of the Hilton Saturday morning for the Doctor Who photoshoot and got some Donna photos... And then I MET A DOG DRESSED LIKE THE DOCTOR Group shot: And here's some of Chase's ...
In (sort-of) order of wearing! 1. Peggy Carter I did some updates to Peggy - I took it up a bit through the waist and removed the shoulder pads, and fixed up the wig. It made a HUGE difference! The jacket fit much better and the wig looked way better, too. I just wish I could have had time to take up the sleeves - they are still huge - but ...
We're back! Time to recap... Wednesday We got up bright and early and were actually on the road at the time we wanted to be. I played a lot of tsumtsum (it's been a while since I played). Once we got to Atlanta we got lunch (Takorea), then went and checked in and unloaded. And then off to ikea! Yay! We bought a new shelf unit for the guest room/...
Final round-up post! You can find me at: The Vintage Vogue Fashion Show - Friday @ 1pm (Hyatt) The Post-Parade Doctor Who Photoshoot - Saturday @ 10:30am (Hilton Steps) Marvel Superhero Photoshoot - Sunday @ 3pm (Hilton Steps) The last two are dependent on the weather -- if it's raining it's no go for me. I still don't know when I'm wearing what, but I will posting regularly on my instagram (and sharing ...
I spent friday night/saturday finishing up everything. I finished my wig for the pink dress, outside of trimming the lacefront (I should do that this afternoon instead of when we get there... I'll do that at lunch), and made some hair decorations for it out of leftover materials. I put some snaps on the dress at the bottom to hold the swags in place. I finished up my corset (...
I've felt icky all week, the weather shifted and gave me a migraine and yesterday I just could not get it under control. It couldn't make up its mind whether or not it was now a migraine or a sinus headache, which means I take one medication, it doesn't work, take another, that doesn't work, take another -- ok that kinda worked but now you're sick to your stomach from ...
So a while back when I was hunting good wedge boots for Captain Marvel I stumbled across some of those cheap-o Halloween costume witch shoes. They were my size and they were only $5 on clearance. So I bought them. One day I will splurge on some American Duchess shoes, but for now, $5 is all this broke-ass can budget for shoes. Thursday night I started painting them white; I was covering ...
The things you find yourself doing during the Dragon Con panic. I'd been waiting on this package for a week... shipping had taken 3 days longer than I expected so I was already frustrated. I knew it was scheduled to be delivered Saturday so I checked the mailbox multiple times and nothing. It was well past the time our mail usually comes so I checked the tracking again and... it said ...
So yesterday I got the other sleeve finished off, and finished making my main trim. I put some chiffon and leftover silk on the dress to see if I liked the idea of doing a kerchief or a belt. I dunno. I'll have to wait and see when I get closer to being done, I guess. Rest of my underskirt fabric slated to be here tomorrow. Since Chase was cutting ...
