Some of you may know that my dad's side of the family is from Austria. So I've been wearing dirndls occasionally ever since I was a little girl. ( That's fine, dirndls are cute on little girls. )

austria, wtf?, photos, dirndl

18!? I'm so not 18 in those photos - they're taken tonight!

Yellow? What about the puffy sleeves? I wanna KILL it! And they're puffier when you see it in person!!

Aaaaah okay.

I've been sort of laugh-crying about it. Cause it's so incredibly STUPID LOOKING.

If I wear it with jeans, it kinda looks like a man's jacket with puffy sleeves. And I sortof look like a guy in it (my upper body, I mean). Maybe I can be a tacky crossdresser!

The dirndl or the yellow thing? ;)
I've honestly thought about bringing it the past two years - maybe I will this year, if I have room in my bags. Although, I'm not quite sure what I'd do with it, it would be fun to have around.

I know. All I can manage is a "... huh" now and again.
I should've taken a photo of the back, too. There's a lone cable down the middle of it. It's fantastic.

dirndls are cute. especially cuter when the ones you usually see in the us are much skankier than yours.

the last thing you have looks....um...victorian?
and would probably be better were it not.....yellow and knitted?

Well, mine's actually Austrian, not an americanized version of traditional trachten, so. I hate the skanky-looking dirndls, they make me sad.

The colour's actually alright in real-life, although it's not really a good colour for me. And knitted is fine - it's just the pattern that's useless. I mean, puffy sleeves? Seed stitch all over? The three buttons? The tiny pockets? The silly-looking collar? Ick.
