hey love! just checking in! how is your day going?

hello! ^.^

i'm doing okay - trying to figure out which train to take to get to my acting lessons tomorrow. if i take an early one, i'd arrive way too early, but if i take the next one, i'd barely arrive in time - and that's only if everything is on time and not delayed by a minute (RARE for this country fml), and i don't want to be late for the first lesson of this course. so yeah that's what i'm thinking about ahaha :P

how are you?? <3

#i'm stressing about my whole future in general but it's FINE i'm just anxious today i think -_-''#have to figure out what to wear tomorrow so when i wake up i just get dressed and head to the station immediately #no thunder in the air today though #asked and answered #frostedmagnolias

Top ca. 1908 Evening dress by Jays Ltd (V&A). From tumblr.com/frostedmagnolias/733111325324165121? 1125X1375.

Middle ca. 1908 Bodice of evening dress by Jays Ltd (V&A). From tumblr.com/frostedmagnolias/733111325324165121? 1125X1389.

Bottom ca. 1908 Skirt of evening dress by Jays Ltd (V&A). From tumblr.com/frostedmagnolias/733111325324165121? 1125X1378.

The Victoria and Albert Museum (V&A) notes "The dress is dominated by the boldly embroidered panels imported from Turkey and made up in London. In style this dress is transitional between the pronounced curved shapes of the early 1900s and the straighter lines (with high waists) that had become current by about 1909. There is some evidence that an earlier dress may have been adapted to suit the tastes of 1908. The inside of the bodice has a grosgrain waist stay (grosgrain is a heavily ribbed silk) with the woven label of Jays Ltd, which bears a taffeta ribbon marked 'Lady Pearson', the name of the wearer."

URL song game

thank you @larmegliamori for tagging me <3

The rules of the game are to write one song for every letter in your url, and then tag as many people as there are letters in your url.

M: Morirò da re - Måneskin

O: Off To The Races - Lana Del Rey

I: Indigo Night - Tamino

E: Endlessly - Muse

N: New Born - Muse

N: National Anthem - Lana Del Rey

E: Eternally Missed - Muse

P: P. Y. T. - Michael Jackson

E: Everytime - Britney Spears

(sorry about Lana but her music still has a grip on me despite everything and I was struggling to find titles with those letters for some reason :') I haven't been streaming her at all)
