Hobbit outfit...

I forgot to describe it!!!

I went to L'echoppe du Dragon Rouge (The Red Dragon Shoppe) and purchased:

1. One long and very flared light beige linen skirt that laces up the back. It will need to be shortened, but I am not shortening it to Hobbit-lass length (ie: mid-calf), but I will pin it up for it to look shorter.

2. One flowy blouse with an empire waist, a (low) square neckline and flared sleeves in a beige nylon-like material that imitates crushed silk. Again, I will pin up the sleeves (or just tuck them in) so that they look like short puffy sleeves.

3. One deep red brocade bustier (the most expensive part, it was $109.00 CAD) that laces up the front and has a tightening lace in the back. It shows off cleavage and pushes my breasts up, as if I had a pushup bra. Looks really nice with the low sqare neckline of the blouse.

4. A pewter copy (non-authorized, so there are a few differences) of the Elven Brooch (yes, I am too cheap to buy the real deal from the catalogue *grins*). It is already on the necklace of my winter jacket, also known as the Geoffrey Brandybuck jacket (yeah, the front looks like Geoff's jacket, the back like Merry's, it's kinda funny, really).

I can't wait to take pictures and show off...
