Description A two page dinky little cameo didn't seem big enough to pay *Valendra back for the GORGEOUS cameo's she's been lovely enough to give to my Sailor Eris. So I've done this to say thank you SO MUCH properly! Bless!

Onto the outfit breakdown!

ROZARIA

This dress was inspired by the designs of one of my favourite fashion designers of ALL TIME, Erte. The sleeves and the asymmetrical hemline were both adapted from sketches I found in one of my books of his work. (P.S: if anyone can tell me where I can find a definitive book of all of his stuff, I will love you forever. NO JOKE.) The bodice, however, was inspired by Nina Ricci's new spring collection, although the style has been used by other designers.

ERIS

This was largely my inspiration, however, in BASIC sillhouette, I got the idea from Anna Kendrick's GORGEOUS ensemble at the last Oscars [link] (for those who don't remember ).

The snake around Eris' neck, by the way, is Dysnomia, her faithful pookah PA. If you're wondering why the black and white, I chose it because in quite a few points, Namida and Xena are exact opposites. Namida is sweet on the outside, but has a whole lot of bad on the inside, while Xena acts like a little pest, but actually cares very much about people and has a heart of gold (or at least, a gold plated heart ). Hopefully, that came out a little bit in the last round. It'll become more obvious if I'm lucky enough to move on in the tournament.

I like the platinum blonde, 'Goth girl' look you've given Eris.

I see you've kept up with your GORGEOUS work. I have a masquerade next month and what I wouldn't give to have these dresses/makeup/hair/accessories!

Anywho, beyond the beautiful, well, everything, I really like how the character themselves aren't lost in all the glamour. They are still very notable and the way you went with more subtle expressions, and they're eyes closed, it give that airy, dreamy quality, like even though they seem opposites, they are in balance right now.

Ahh, man, I missed your work! I'm going on a shop- i mean faving spree now!

Absolutely gorgeous!

The dress designs themselves are really beautiful, and I love the patterns and details that you managed to incorporate into them! Everything here looks really beautiful; from the coloring and the details to the composition! The composition creates a sense of wonderful unity here and it's really beautiful to look at!

Be tee dubs, found this: [link] on Amazon. I think that's the complete Erte. Hope that helps! I was going to get you some of the Erte coloring books for your birthday, but I wasn't sure how comfortable you'd be that. Hopefully this is also good?

Oh, SUGAR, that's SO SWEET OF YOU, but I don't want you spending your hard earned money on a gift for me. The thought, though, completely made my day. You're the best!

Pfff, you deserve lots of gifts! (And to be fair, it wouldn't break the bank to buy a coloring book. ) I'm working on something for tomorrow, fingers crossed it'll be done in time. Either way, you're very welcome!

Do you have any big plans for the day?

Ugh. NO. I'm recovering from an all nighter last night trying desperately to get my round 4 entry in. ICK. So it'll be a work day getting it all sorted out. I'm celebrating by going to see David Gray in a few days.

I know, I'm such a lucky duck! My mum is the coolest. Seriously. I think all of my friends only hang out with my as an excuse to hang out with my mother.

Actually, I'm pretty damn lucky family wise generally. I have a ton of really, really wonderful relatives.

Bwahaha, is that so? That's so awesome, make sure you let her know how you feel. Mom advice, that.

That's really great, though. So many people can't or won't say that about their families. Never take them for granted!

I love the skirt of Rozarias dress, it's very whimsical and elegant, i also love Eris's heel, it's very new age and awesome but still has an old world spice, sorta like a shoe lady gaga would wear, which in this context is a compliment. The piece kind if reminds me of the Pisces piece you did (Pisces power!.) P.S. I'm not sure if this is comment worthy, but i love Eris's braid, in thought, and your execution of it.
