Hi there, provided I can: I'm headed back to the lol server. It sounds weird needing to toot about it, but this account on "social" will also remain dormant with all these toots still here, so I wanted to give some finality to the thread. 💕
All the late-night toots - I've been putting in 8+ hours daily on a gown concept that began with a design around 2017. Then I made a version of it for the ballet gala last year. Bold choice this year is to arrive again in the same color scheme (black), 90% same fabrics, too. But a much more dramatic shape. A lot more detail work. Last year's dress was hard to make. This one is exquisitely challenging.
So I'm going to a red carpet event next week, and in addition to making my own couture, I've bought:
3 evening bags
2 belts
2 bowties
2 dress shirts
2 corsets
And a petticoat
In my defense, a lot of this was inexpensive. But I needed options. 🥴
It all takes some great risks in season 2, except the part where it normalizes murder. 🤷♂️
I may delete it later from social media.
- Don't stop creating things for you.
- Keep working out & dieting. But stop being body dysmorphic.
- Attend what you want and not what you feel obligated to attend.
- Strive for happier feelings. But get mad quicker, because then you can move on faster.
- Be honest to a fault; Don't be afraid to make an enemy.
- Don't make anyone a priority who views you as an option; Mostly dating and friend related, but also this is about work.
- Let go of things. You don't have to forgive, but you can stop holding grudges.
- Consider moving away.
- Get more work, and don't be hard on yourself.
- "Fuck finding yourself. Stay lost as long as you can."
- Continue to prioritize finding a partner. But seek out lesser connections + friends that fill a void.
I'm glad I took so many photos the past eight years. I inspired myself this morning to live up this one.
