my sister's hobby

This one is officially my favourite of all the dresses in the museum. I just adore the way it flows, it patterns and colours and the overall style. If it were possible to buy them this would be mine! It's definately from the 1800s for sure and has a Jane Austen flair to it, I think.
Now, the pattern is of some leaves/branches/vines which are repeated all over the outerdress. The innerdress or underdress is a plain cream perhaps cotton or silk, the skirt flows wonderfully.
The overdress is actually the bodice and sleeves with a similarly patterned train attached to the middle of it. I just love the way the whole dress seems to flow perfectly and create this Austen/fairytale look.
EDIT - Thinking back and with KingAndrewI's help the 1700's, possibly 1790s about.

From Bath Fashion Museum

This is a baroque gown inspired by Russian fashion. On top is a kokoshnik ([link]) – a traditional russian headdress – I created to got with the gown.

Sewing and photography by me.

It's made from dark green satin with a small rhombus pattern. The trim is a dark brown feather boa.
It has got a zipper in the back and black lining fabric as lining.
Maybe you now the ubiquitous Burda pattern I used.

And here we have Miss Harmony Bones. (Daughter of Emily and Bonejangles ) all complete. I knew Operettas fashion pack was perfect for her. ^__^

Still want to get rid of that grey triangle though...

Look what I picked up today.

In stock in Argos today was:
RM Lagoona
DDG Spectra
GR Frankie, Clawdeen
ST Clawdeen
Rochelle, Jackson, Operetta

I so love Lagoonas hand! Also Spectra is gorgeous! I love her little bows and the way her dress flows.

What a great day!

* I pick up my free Krispy Kreme doughnuts
* I visit at work
* I get RM Lagoona and DDG Spectra
* I visit at work
* I return home to find the torsos waiting for me!

That is all I have to say.

It's the twins! In their silly European packaging and fake diary. xD

A friend finally found them for me. He's my TRU tacker downer seeing as I don't have a TRU near me. So he'll be hunting for the I <3 Fashions girls for me too (and DT Abbey because I don't have a Smyths either. )
He also takes amazing pictures so go look: [link]

I know a lot of people are disappointed with these girls, but honestly, They are beautiful and I'm glad to have gotten them. Toralei finally has her groupies.

With a slight change in wardrobe (removing jacket, socks and replacing the shorts with her club fashion skirt), Ghoulias ready to join the Schools out ghouls. (Seeing as there is no Schools Out Ghoulia, she will stand in her place.)
