A fine choice, mate.

Once finals are over I am making this dress, but purple and unstriped and probably shorter... actually I just like those beady-type circle bits on the straps.

Concept art from Rapunzel I MEAN TANGLED.

She looks less like a girl that's been stuck in a tower for all her life and more like a girl who's been out on the streets all her life.

@Lera: Very cute, I'd like to see it when you're done and possibly a copy of the pattern.

No.... My little cousin might like it. She likes stuff like that.

Dammit, I need to quit letting my stereotypically gay habits become common knowledge.

The biggest project I've done is a full set of jedi robes, tunic, and breeches.

Well, because you asked so nicely I will make an accurate pattern for you and upload it to the internet somehow.

Or maybe just a step by step tutorial as I'm much better at those.

Oh, you don't have to go through all that trouble. I just wanted to see how you'd do it.

Is it the fingerless gloves?

Arrow: Well, if you're doing both layers I'd just take a basic t-shirt, rip out all the seams, trace the pieces, lengthen the sleeves, and modify the collar.

For the dress I think I would just use a v-neck bodice with a sloping front, and a basic circle skirt to go under it.

Ivy: Pretty much, yeah.

@Juan: I agree with your sentiment. And I also want that jacket.

Not this recent bump, a necro before that.

If you notice, the first few pages have comments from Rott (banned) and Vorpy (AWOL)

Okay, so...fashion. I like leather jackets. I own several, but the one Juan pointed out...damn, I want that coat.

Right so might be hitting the bars sometime in the very near future. My planned ensemble is jeans, black boots, white dress shirt, and a black vest. Should I toss a tie in there too?

Ties are indeed cool. Use them, but make the knot not so tight so you can breathe and take it off easily if you find girls around you are not liking it.

I had a leather jacket years ago. I think I should acquire a replacement. Time to hit up the various thrift stores...

I have a leather jacket, but I usually wear brown / black greatcoats. With goggles.

@inane: I like your style.

@ties: they sort of work, unless you're really skinny. Being really skinny, I go with a Western-style slide tie. Just pick a decoration that isn't too smarmy and you're all good.

Currently wearing an old cold-war era garrison uniform tunic. OG-507 pattern. Comfortable and durable, and it still has the creases in the sleeves from when some guy used to iron it decades ago.

I had the matching trousers for it some time ago, but got paint on them.

So yeah, Olive Drab and black, my two favorite colors.

I usually wear dress shirts and cargo shorts in the summer, and flannel and bluejeans/khakis in the fall. I have a satchel from Club Nintendo, but it's not..well..fashionable. I'm thinking about getting either a black or light brown leather satchel briefcase. Anyone know where to get one? :T
