Happy New Year! While everyone I know was out whopping it up last night, I was at home playing dress up. I was trying to figure out what I wanted to wear with the striped puff sleeve jacket I made that I posted about day before yesterday and then went crazy trying to make new outfits. Anyhoo...

Jacket- Made by me a few days ago
Skirt- Made by me. It was the 'Gingerbread Coffin' skirt from my old label House of Vamp. Black chiffon lined in taupe/beige satin.
Boots- Ye olde
Fluevog Sugar boots Picture #2
Shrug- Black crochet shrug bought from a shop in London/Camden about 4 years ago.
Top-
Lip Service Dead and Gone Gauze top Skirt- Pale yellow shreddy gauze skirt was thrifted but it's Wet Seal brand
I think this outfit still needs something...perhaps a hat or some sort of military belt?

Jacket- Tan lace jacket was thrifted but it is Bebe brand
Cami- Black and tan silk and lace cami was bought at Victorias Secret a few years ago
Skirt- Vintage 1950's slip, stripes of black sheer/lace with a light brown liner
The brooch pinned on the jacket is
this clock brooch I sell on my website. It's my favorite, I wear it almost every day.

Jacket-
I sell these. The brand is Solstice and it is a pretty brown and copper stripe lined in brown paisley cotton.
Skirt- I found this in the kids department at Target, hehe.
Socks- Good old
Sock Dreams stripes in brown and walnut.
And a bit of an ISO- One thing I have been dreaming of that I have not seen around that I really want is a Steampunk version of a ladies high neck Edwardian style choker. And perhaps a wide cuff bracelet with a functional watch on it. Has anyone seen anything like that for sale anywhere? If I had any metal working skills I would make them myself but my craft is sewing not jewelry making. Most of the Edwardian style chokers I've seen for sale are made from embellished lace. I am looking for something all made from metal/brass parts. Any tips where to find either would be most appreciated. :)
