New socks new socks new socks! La la la la laaa!
Thanks to the Lovely Rachel I have an abundance of new socks. I also have two new pairs of armwarmers, sock garters with dangly cherries and a pink frilly petticoat. Sock Dreams, I sing your praises.
Unfortunately my idea to buy lots this time so I would never have to purchase form there again hasn't worked. I want more. More!
So. I wore my pirate thigh highs with my pleated mini, black "I'm just glad I'm not you" thsirt and biker boots for roleplaying last night, with my black'n'white stripey armwarmers. I was dressed in character, for my favourite character pretty much ever: Jo.
We played Buffy using the Prime Time Adventures system which seemed to work quite well, although I do have an issue or two with it. Mostly I miss drama points, which are an incredibly helpful Buffy system mechanic. Other than feeling like it was too meta-gamey with narrating what would happen rather than actually roleplaying I'm OK with it.
It was a really fun session too, including some wonderful one-liners and an in character argument between Elric and me. His character is a vampire and Jo is a slayer so it was always bound to happen, plus my boyfriend has just been snacked on by another vampire and Elric had saved him by stabbing him (a little). I was so angry in character that my hand was shaking a little afterwards. Good times.
Today I am wearing my new pink and seafoam over the knee socks and (deep breath) THEY REALLY STAY OVER MY KNEES! OMG! SQUEEEEE!!!! (AHEM). I like them a lot, although they're a natch scratchier than my other long socks. I am also wearing my black and white stripey armwarmers with the pink bombs on. I like them because they don't have articulated fingers, just a hole for your thumb so it's really easy to push them back onto the wrists and wash your hands. I was gonna wear my fluffy pink chenille armwarmers but it was too many pinks. As it is I'm wearing (checks self) more than five different pinks although many of them are in small amounts so it isn't overwhelming. Grey tshirt and demin skirt are really the dominating features.
Ahem. Other than socks I don't have very much to say. Soon I shall write what I've been thinking lately about hypocrisy.
Point of Fashion: socks, obviously.
Current Obsession: also socks
