This is a thing that happened.

Yesterday I maintained radio silence in solidarity to the SOPA/PIPA protests. It was probably one of my most productive days ever!

That was a joke. I really didn't spend any less time online. I just spent it a little differently. I priced corset making supplies and wound up deciding it was in my budget to go ahead and purchase them. So I have ( Read more... )

Nice! Sexy Gandalf sounds AWESOME.

I have a pair of brown suede boots like those! Just practice walking around in them ;)! I love me some good boots, combine those with heels...WOOT!

Ha! The awesome thing about this project is that even if I fail miserably, it still works.

I definitely plan to put in some practice time! Lots and lots of practice time.

Oh man those boots rule! Now you're making me really want to buy new boots for Sexy Aragorn, instead of using one of the hundred pairs of boots I already have. Damn it.

I need to decide if Sexy Aragorn needs a corset. I was thinking about it, but I don't have any really good ideas for the whole costume design and look yet. Post your Sexy Gandalf ideas soon! I need inspiration!

Everything I already had was just too tame for this project & I found these for around $35 so I went for it. Even if this its all I ever wear them for, it's worth it.

I'll post it up in the next week or so. If Sexy Aragorn has a corset, it should be one that's worn on the outside of whatever substitute you use for the jerkin & the coat like Dark Phoenix from X3.
