My Illustrative Life

Though that makes it sound a chore, doesn’t it? :O!

Christmas party!

It’s virtual, which makes things easier. You’re invited, if you live here too. There are prizes..

..Which I’m not allowed to win, because I’m contributing one of them. This one, actually.

Doesn’t that make you want to join more?? OF COURSE.

Here’s my attendance attire, anyhow:

We’re also bringing a song for the soundtrack and a plate o’tasties, so, voila!

Click’em for recipes!

I chose this outfit because, well, I like it. I like winter textures, and softness, and sparkles. I like dark colours and clothes that cling warmly and that keep out the cold. I like feeling like if I fell into a fairytale, I would be dressed for it. I like clothes that have history, which these do: the hat had a previous life in Russia, the dress had a previous life in America and before that in Japan (Brand: Victorian Maiden. Though I altered it). The long-sleeve shirt could have been anywhere, that is yet another draw to Charity shopping for me. I like deep reds, and blacks that don’t look harsh. I like not clashing with the colours of nature.

The song, obviously, is one of those “Christmas songs” (though not mentioning the WORD), but is sung by Joan Jett. And that makes it hugely better (though this version has a child playing drums and some talking over it, for some reason). The soup and the honey’d lime are just tasty! And easy to homemake!

Happy Winter, everyone. To my countryfolk and others.
