More about the corset. But it's now pretty much done, so I'll soon have something different to clutter up your f-list with :)

I'll need to check with Ken and confirm schedules (we've got a wedding to go to Saturday evening), but that would be great! I have my plain black boots, and there are my lace-up ones that I need to get back from finna_upp, so I'll be ok for shoes (and the skirt is long enough that not much of the shoes would show anyway). Our camera has a good flash and does fairly decent night shots, though a daytime shoot would show the colors better. And I definitely need help with the hair - I'm pretty clueless as to what to do with it. I can do the makeup, since the look is supposed to be fairly natural, unless I change my mind when more of the "mechanical woman" costume bits get done. I may decide to go with less skin showing, and dust whatever does show in a heavy layer of metallic bronze.
But it's a great relief to have something wearable this early in the year. One of the girls at the Campfire meeting said I looked like someone from Little House on the Prairie, which I took as a great compliment. :)
