I thought so! I really enjoyed it.

Scribbled Lore 03-18-2011 03:08 AM

Did you show it to Archie?

Pink Roses 03-18-2011 02:09 PM

He linked me, actually. He said he thought it was disturbing but that he thought I'd like it.

Scribbled Lore 03-18-2011 02:40 PM

Ahah, I see. I want a new outfit for Menewsha but I can't decide on anything I really like. *sadface*

Pink Roses 03-18-2011 02:55 PM

I haven't seen much in the way of new things I want yet. Some of the things I really like don't come in a color I like. I sort of understand your pain.

Scribbled Lore 03-18-2011 02:56 PM

I'm just not the creative genius I would like to be when it comes to clothing so I'm always disappointed in the outfits I come up with. I'm not good with layering or seeing how things could mesh together better in my head. Y'know?

Pink Roses 03-18-2011 02:58 PM

Well, I'm not particularly savvy when it comes to clothing or layering it for that matter. I'm lucky I can pull off the T-shirt over a long sleeved shirt thing IRL. That being said, I'm lucky to find clothes that fit the way I like at all. *sigh*

Black Dahlia 03-18-2011 03:00 PM

My main problem is I can't decide on a style of clothes that is uniquely mine. It's hard to find things that say "this is me". It probably doesn't help that I'm extra picky and won't wear some things because I don't like how they feel or move.

Scribbled Lore 03-18-2011 03:00 PM

How do you have your inventory on Menewsha arranged? The only distinction between items in mine is all shop items in the main inventory and EIs/CIs in a drawer. Oh, and doubles get their own drawer.

Pink Roses 03-18-2011 03:01 PM

My inventory isn't organized at all. Everything I own you see on my avatar. I don't have extras. Plus I spent 100 g on Archie earlier and sent him some shoes. Not that he probably cares or whatever, but I figured it couldn't hurt to be nice.

Black Dahlia 03-18-2011 03:04 PM

IRL I would like to learn to create my own Victorian style clothes. That's probably the only way I'll find anything of that style that will fit properly. We really ought to stop encouraging purging and unrealistic standards of beauty.

Pink Roses 03-18-2011 03:09 PM

As long as I can get a couple parasols out of the deal, we can totally do Victorian some time, although I don't think there will be dresses of that nature in my future. Now, if we can find patterns for Edwardian stuff, THEN I'm interested in all that work.

Scribbled Lore 03-18-2011 03:09 PM

Well, I see no harm in not wearing certain items of clothing based on how they move or feel. I do the same thing and I'm not about to stop. :XD Being comfortable is far more important to me than anything else.

That's a cultural issue, Dahlia, and it's going to take a lot of effort to make it go away. The best I can think of doing is being happy with yourself and showing others "health and happiness at every size." That's one of the concepts of the fat movement.

Crap, phone.

Pink Roses 03-18-2011 03:30 PM

I would hug you if it was currently possible. Oh hurray for the links. Old clothes were so awesome.

Black Dahlia 03-18-2011 03:34 PM

They were pretty nice patterns. I think at some point we both may attempt a couple of pieces and see what happens. The pessimist in me senses great fail...though I don't necessarily agree.

Scribbled Lore 03-18-2011 03:38 PM

You should start with easy patterns - like skirts for Roses until you two get the hang of sewing.

Pink Roses 03-18-2011 03:39 PM

I think that simple skirts are a good starting point and we can work up to Victorian/Edwardian stuff. We can learn by making everyday stuff to wear.

Scribbled Lore 03-18-2011 03:41 PM

*nods* That's the idea.

I think Spawn is getting ready for a nap. He's sitting on the coffee table cuddling my arm and sucking his thumb.

Pink Roses 03-18-2011 03:43 PM

Alright. We need to restart anyway. Writer is refusing to open or acknowledge. I'll play Rift til you get back.

Scribbled Lore 03-18-2011 03:53 PM

Oh, lulz. I haven't left yet. I don't know if I will. I'm still deciding.

Corporate Zombie 03-20-2011 04:59 PM

SO, where are PR and BD? DIdn't they devote their lives to this RP we have going like we did?

Scribbled Lore 03-20-2011 05:00 PM

Apparently not. Slackers. *nose wrinkle*

What do you think of starting another RP just between us to give us something to do between their posts and ours? Something with a new set of characters. Maybe a different V:tM setting?

Corporate Zombie 03-20-2011 05:01 PM

Do you realize the preparation that that would require? I suppose making up new characters would be a good way to pass the time... would you be willing to go through the process?

Scribbled Lore 03-20-2011 05:07 PM

Why wouldn't I be?

Corporate Zombie 03-20-2011 05:07 PM

What would you think of rolling some Sabbat characters?
