The urge to create a Pinterest board about the outfits Mother Miranda would wear is unbearable.

Quick and rough Plumeria redesign, mostly just cause...... I gotta do what comes naturally to me, man. Give me some Shapes. Simplify that design or so help me.
I don't have a lot of complex thoughts about it, actually! Just the idea of having a "sexy" outfit that draws the eyes to certain parts of the body -- while simultaneously being modest and Sharp. Having an edge to it. Also!!!! The luna moth inspired wings!!! I wanted to stay within her og color palette, but I've also always thought luna moth wings would suit her... the top wing is vaguely heart shaped, too!
#fire emblem#feh#i don't feel like taking a better pic sorry 😭#also. the most fucked up thing i'm learning doing this. is that (at least for the main four base forms)#yoshiku's color palettes Actually Work. fucked up. insane. i ALMOST added my own colors#just a hint of purple. and it fucked everything up?????? ALSO THE WINGS. THE WINGS#ARE ESP FUCKED UP. BC. IT WORKS. the red yellow orange blue. it fucking works. what the fuck.#LIKE one of my biggest frustrations w the fairy designs is they feel Samey color pallette wise.#that if it were up to Me. i would pick four distinct palettes to work with and try not to overlap too much.#literally just the fucking. tinkerbell pixie hallow treatment. everyone gets a signature color and we go from there.#but like... I GUESS TECHNICALLY EVERYONE DOES???? IT'S JUST. the Overlap.#like mira's pink/greens feel samey w plum's reds/greens. and esp from memory plum and tri pallets just blend together for me.#and peony and mira have the same purple eyes. a lot of green overlap in general. and i love green#BUT... SOMEHOW....... the color pallets. Work. fucked up and evil#also i'm not immune to the toothed pussy motif. that's what that little detail on the dress slit is supposed to invoke LMFAOO#AGAIN. IT'S ABOUT THE SHARPNESS. of drawing the eye and refusing to reward you for it if that makes sense#idk idk. i also just feel like plum should have an elegant look.#design not final though i'm just parsing it out. ALSO THE. THE SHARP ALMOST CLAWED NAILS. HUGE FAN#i was def worn out from my current project though. sometimes. you just gotta design a fairy about it.#fe plumeria#my art

avery would have so much drip if he wasnt in the psychic uniform. i want to believe this. the only reason he looks silly is bc hes trying to blend aesthetics that Do Not Match
in my heart he grimaced at the uniforms design & tried to make it better with Elegant accessories & maybe he thinks it worked but i promise if you let him pick his own outfit he would be so fancy
#also his hats like way too tall but thats just him asserting dominance or smth. he wants to stand out#i do think itd be very funny for a beautiful man claiming to be elegant to have No drip but unfortunately i think he is very well dressed#torch chatter#avery pokemon#him & his tall hat & high waisted shorts & frilly socks & cravat......

I actually find gender swapping characters really interesting (what part of their expression is dictated by gender norms vs certain events in their life vs their personal preferences that wouldn't change either way, etc.) so now I wanna draw what that would look like in my ocs except I am in pain rn so I'm forced to just lie there and be plagued by visions
#ok but#the thing with north is that when he ran away he cut off his hair and started wearing masculine clothing to hide his identity and went “wait#this actually feels right wtf“#but i dont think he really did anything with his appearance prior to that. he kinda was just existing not really thinking about himself#he was really only focused on protecting and caring for saffron#so a gender swapped version wouldnt be much different pre-running away#not bothering about cutting hair + the cultists' robes look very similar in both feminine and masculine versions#so fem north would still have short hair to make her appearance less recognizable#just would wear dresses and stuff#saffron though. i think she presents herself more in accordance with gender norms#so gender swapped saffron would always have short hair + more masculine looking clothing#but i think her mannerisms and behavior would stay the same. also her general frame#like yes she in part dresses and looks this way because thats whats expected of her + thats how she was raised by The Lady but a lot of it#esp in terms of her personality is Just Her. this would stay the same#warren doesnt give a shit. he doesnt have much gender to begin with. no gender only swag#so he would look almost exactly the same just with less facial hair probably#The Lady would very much be different. like instead of graceful threatening elegant old-ish woman with Big Hair and Big Dress#shed have short hair same level of elegance but masculine clothes probably facial hair too. like one of them small sharp beards yk#the restaurant owner (still dont have a name for her) wouldnt change almost at all as well. shes very much function/comfort over style#her clothes are already masculine n she has short hair both for convenience#shed straight up look the same just with a stubble or smth#there are a couple other characters in this story i have thoughts on but i havent introduced/developed them properly yet#pjsk ocs though ! ive been thinking abt them again#matsu is pretty feminine and it does play a role in a “part of why ppl think hes weird” kinda way#so as a girl hed be more masc presenting#i dont think fumi would really change at all. she also dresses mainly for convenience but i do think she does have a little regard for#for gender norms. but like. barely any. so maximum changes would be those ponytail parts of her hair getting like. a tiny bit shorter#toshiro would stay the EXACT same. he does his own thing#seina dresses that way bc shes expected to but also thats just genuinely how she is. so swapped shed still have longer hair n feminine#demeanor but wear pants or smth. im hitting tag limit help. cries

'Happiness Is Russ Writing For Mirabelle': A longer entry in Russell Mael's weekly column in Mirabelle magazine, 1974
#but wait theres more!#also the compilation i posted earlier isn't all the ones ever published it's just all in the particular scrapbook that someone shared#this one is longer so he can go off about fashion#and this features his classic statement of how he doesnt like bright colors and thinks glitter suits are a passing phase#oh how the times changed........#glad his neutral colored elegant aesthetic was the real phase and now he dresses like a highlighter as jeffreybeaumont hysterically said#i also love how hes like i cant be the only teeny tiny small framed little guy who has to buy womens sweaters like. ok#russ#russell mael#sparks#sparks band

have you seen that annoying try guys video about corsets. why’re they tightlacing like it’s average wear?
Yeah, and it's just a lot of nonsense. Like all of those videos.
Why do they tightlace? Because that's what people want to see. Not everyone; a lot of people are genuinely interested in learning. But unfortunately, a loud minority wants to believe the easiest, least complicated, most sensational version of the past. And that loud minority votes with engagement. You CAN get clicks for saying the corsets were basically the bras of their day, and women's relationship with them was similarly complicated and individual, but they were not unilateral torture devices- look at the success of costube in recent years -but that takes effort. Why bother, when you can just play to the lowest denominator of historical clothing knowledge?
(On some level, I do understand where the impulse comes from- the eras where pairs of bodies/stays/corsets were commonplace were also times of intense systemic misogyny, so "women were forced into torturous undergarments" seems par for the course. And the pressure on women to look and dress a certain way is obviously wrapped up in misogyny, then and now, even though women were not suffocating themselves into 15" waists like pop history insists. It's a myth that makes sense given its context; that's how it's survived.)
(That and the fact that the women who wrote the most about corsets were the ones who hated them. Likely a minority compared to the vast numbers of women then alive in corset-intensive cultures, but their strong feelings compelled them to speak out in ways that the probable majority never did. Who sits down and writes "Dear diary, another uneventful day wearing an ultra-commonplace support garment that I'm fairly neutral about?")
(But if you absolutely loathe wearing something- due to sensory issues, perceived hassle of dressing, feeling like your needs aren't met or are impeded by the garment, etc. -and social pressure says You Must...yeah, you're going to have some Thoughts on that subject.)
#ask#anon#pop history#dress history#corsets#like I may think that a lot of modern clothing is unrepairable plastic garbage designed to give out in six months#created in cycles that move way too fast by people who think showing as much of your natural body as possible#is the acme of comfort and elegance and taste (but just for women)#and also that we should give the impression of being able to hike or do manual labor at all times regardless of what our#actual lives entail in a given situation#but not actually be able to do it (again especially for women)#BUT that should not be taken as an objective statement of What 2020s Clothing Is#because a lot of people disagree with me! and that's okay! humans have always been like that!

This is WILD because this is the Exact Type Of Outfit I would design. I've played with the idea of angel-themed Halloween alts (AGES AGO). I am ALWAYS vaguely drawing this type of toga for Alfonse (when he's not sporting the shirt/leggings look). Like I just woke up so I can barely put it into words but it is SO FUNNY and maybe even surreal to me. Like I COULD HAVE MADE THAT... if you gave me the prompt of "Askr (lmfao) themed angel costume" this is what I would have come up with more or less. THAT'S INSANE...... and a testament to like. Something. Maybe the years long obsession w Alfonse Fire Emblem. Or maybe there's just like. Only a few ways you can do such a thing.
#feh#okay secret answer i think if you gave me the character WITH the prompt i would have made the toga longer.#like. ohhhh i'm designing a god's outfit. got it. so it has to be elegant and godly#BUT HONESTLY. I LOVE THE SHORT SKIRT HERE. LIKE. it literally feels like he's dressing up actually#like. he's just playing around. he's just an angel. not an Actual God.#also just. AWESOME to see askr and awesome to see a ripped dude in an undeniably cute outfit that FUCKS#but i also feel like in a strange way he's dressing up as alfonse too. like. this is straight up an alfonse fit.#the LAYERS here. kinda go crazy. when you think about it that way!!!#also is it a chicken or the egg thing like is he wearing a very alfonse fit or is alfonse created in his image#INSANE....#askr

saw that one post and i have an important question....what kinda dress do u think vyncent would wear. for no particular reason
i think im biased in saying this but
evening dress..................................... "randy thats what you drew kian in" idc i think he'd look great in smthn like these
#okay legitimately my reasoning is in my head he's the tallest so my first thought is something more sleek and elegant. he also tends to wear#mroe like. simplisitic in design clothes ? yknow. so i think he wouldnt like something with like. a lot going on#and also he would absolutely wear his jacket over the dress

the way I have different personalities depending on how I dress........ something to talk about one day when I manage to find a therapist.
#like there's teen me hiding himself in oversized mallgoth/emo clothes#then there's confident and fun me dressed like a slutty 80s rockstar high heels and make up and big hair and skintight pants#also quiet and mysterious me wearing all flowy shapeless black (or moss green or white) whimsigoth witchy type clothes#or the anime girly misa amane draculaura monster high style me when things are really fucked#and i dress up try to feel like a desirable but untouchable goth girly#and the elegant vampire adjacent historybounding type me that only rarely comes around anymore#and then recently there's also work me who just throws on a t shirt black jeans and black work boots#with some edgy unobtrusive jewelry and his hair in a simple ponytail#who's polite and just gets stuff done for 8 hours#and in the middle of all this mess idk who i am at my core lol

Stole this from @lavampira 🖤✨️ ehehehe
In order:
O'ravi Soltholia (inspired by a gpose I did of her in Tuliyollal a few weeks ago and forgot to post lol)
Brynja Ryder (POV you are Jaal Ama Darav and your gf dug out one of the dresses she brought from the Milky Way, she is so cute wyd?)
Marian Shepard (pool party during the Citadel DLC? Gonna bet it was Traynor's idea lololol)
Tagging @coldshrugs @lilas @scionshtola @hythlodaes @galadae to make ocs in this meiker if u want /dote
#it cracks me up how elegant ravi and brin are and then there's marian fjskfjsjd#in her defense i don't think she likes water or swimming all that much. wet clothes + her lazarus scars? no thanky#she likes the ocean and beaches but only when there's no one there and she doesn't go swimming just wades around a bit#also brynja in retro dresses......gives me life#o'ravi soltholia#brynja ryder#marian shepard

Schoolrust is....
Something nostalgic, soft, childlike
Something cherished once
Something in a state of age
Something in a state of decay
Something abandoned
But not completely forgotten
Schoolrust is....
An abandoned schoolyard
Rusting playground equipment
An ornate dress with moth holes in it
A decaying house filled with cozy knickknacks
A beloved doll in a thrift shop
A sunset view from a broken down car
A rainy day from under the shelter of an unused bus stop or phone booth
Comfort in exploring the things we've left behind with the perspective of childlike wonder and curiosity
Beauty in the things we've thrown away
Childhood and rot
Nostalgia and decay
#abandoned#abandoned places#urbex#schoolrust#schoolrust aesthetic#urban exploration#gothic#lost places#i especially love things that are associated with elegance and the ideal traditional girlhood contrasted by a sort of harshness or horror#a girl in a frilly dress or a school uniform wandering into an abandoned factory or hospital#toting along a well-loved bear or porcelain doll gifted by someone close to her#but it doesn't have to be gendered of course#i guess i could almost think of it like a mix of mori kei and the aesthetics associated with grunge???#if that even makes any sense#it also kind of reminds me of old creepypastas and urban legends#nostalgia and horror ... i think it suits it well#and I think the idea of something that's haunted fits the themes I'm looking for#aes#horror aesthetic#aesthetic#rust#rustic#nostalgiacore#nostalgia#vintage#rural decay#industrial decay#suburban gothic#suburban legends#suburban landscape
