I love the notion of steampunk clothing. I'm not so fussed on the usual color scheme for it (brown, khaki, brass findings), but the idea of it is so damn cool.
Simon: Captain... why did you come back for us? Mal: You're on my crew. Simon: Yeah, but you don't even like me. Why'd you come back? Mal: You're on my crew. Why we still talking about this?

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Quasi-Victorian crossed with Mad Science. Brass hardware, goggles, looking like you've escaped from a Jules Vern story and are about to threaten people with a raygun.
Yeah, that's an excellent way of putting it.
Goggles are probably the ultimate steampunk accessory....

Very pretty quilt, vw. I love the color combination.
Thanks for the link, tommyrot!
I'm having the urge to buy all new not boring clothing, but I will resist until I can lose some weight, get back into shape.

Wow, the clothing social site sounds just up your alley, Jilli!!
The person was supposed to call me at 4pm. It's 4:09. Why haven't they called? Why must they torture me like this? (I was thinking perhaps if i tried posting here, they would call while I was typing...)

I cannot wait to show it to my Grandpa on Saturday. He told me I couldn't get the top done by then, and he is going to be proven so very wrong. Wrong! WRONG! :)

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Oh my. Now I have to get a girlfriend and make her wear this....
And see, I was thinking, "I bet I could get The Boy to wear that...."
