So, where the fuck are my breeches? I mean, my actual black, something even vaguely close to period breeches. My brown ones make my ass look amazing, and fit better, and kinda don't look awful with the rest of my outfit (I guess), but they have pockets. Like...lots of them, including cargo ones, and this is not anything close to period. I might have to suffer through this fact.

On the plus side of everything, in failing to find my breeches, I have re-learned that I have the Best Shirt Ever for things like this. I am going to wear it tomorrow, and hopefully earn grins from people. Because really now, I *am* so excited for someone to invent the t-shirt.

(I should totally take some sort of superwoman pictures of me wearing the full get-up and pulling it open to reveal that shirt and send it to Kate Beaton)

NO SERIOUSLY. I NEED THOSE BREECHES.

Also, hey guys, dark blue or salmon? For my waistcoat, I mean. I wore dark blue last year, and looked great, but I have this kickass salmon vest of the same style, and it would match my shoelaces, and and and...

If I wear the salmon waistcoat and the blue tailcoat and the brown breeches is that too much colour? ARG I AM SO BAD AT MATCHING THINGS ARRRRRRRGGGGGGGGG.

HA! They were under my bed. This is a bad place for such. Now I can put on like eighteen costumes and take pictures.

Oh god. Oh god. Note to self: Next time I make it to the evil red empire, and every time thereafter, check and see if they've good dark blue stockings. Because mine are starting to get runs. Fuuuuuuck.

So, now you have to ( click on this cut, because I'm going to post photos and beg advice )

So yeah. That's where I currently am: Plan on the hopelessly non-period breeches, because I'm vain and think they look good, but be ready to switch to period if someone lets me know that this is a terrible breech of protocol, or that those colours don't actually look good together in the slightest or something. Huzzah!

And just because I am silly:



So so excited for that t-shirt invention, oh yes! Then I don't have to worry about breeches and waistcoats at all!
