oona: hey ruggy! whaddaya think?
ruggy: it's very black...
... and sort of... puritanical...
... and not at all really the kind of thing you wear...
oona: I KNOW!!!
okay peeps, this one's for you! for my second ever blog giveaway, i'd like to present one fabulous gal or guy with this teeny black puritanical cape. it's made of rows and rows of soft ruffled and pleated lace, completed with a vintage jewelry closure. it's one of my modcloth handmade contest entries (once again i have burdastyle to thank for kicking my ass into sewing gear, all hail burdastyle, et spiritus santi), and it was inspired by this dress. it fits, oh say, up to a 14" neck (my neck is 12"). EDIT: i will happily size this up or down for the winner. else, what kind of santa would i be?
while i stay away from black like the plague, i gather it's an oft rocked color choice of many. i think it would look awesome with the inspiration dress, natch, but how about with jeans, tank top and blazer for a laid back new years?
EDIT: giveaway extended, see the new rules & comment to enter at this post by january tenth!
I don't want to enter because I have a neck like a linebacker, but I just wanted to say Merry Merry!
