Feeling like a princess~ (Patreon)

some readers asked to see one of my outfits but I didn't feel comfortable sharing it then. i've been experimenting with older styles lately and I really like this simple fit. i love long flowy skirts and billowing sleeves. it's so feminine without showing too much and really flattering no matter your shape. it's breathable and comfy too~ i've never worn linen, chiffon, or corsets before, but I highly recommend it if you can afford it and don't mind keeping these pieces for a long time.i've been struggling to feel ok lately, so I'm taking more time to dress up when I have a chance to get out. I feel less confident if I dress sloppy, so I do my hair and makeup even if it's just to run a few errands. I don't want it to get me down, so I'm starting to read things outside of my research for SWFTD to help calm my mind. I'm currently reading a memoir about a troubled man that managed to find success, while many of his childhood friends ended up in prison or dead. he struggles to relate to other successful people who grew up with normal, stable families and talks about how he wish he could trade his success for a healthy childhood and a loving family. it's helped me to revisit memories from the past and be kinder and more understanding of myself. On top of reading, I plan to add cardio to my routine because I feel so tired all of the time, despite eating very cleanly and sleeping a lot. I'm might be vitamin D deficient, so I have to get more sun and be diligent about getting the right nutrients.

the decor and design book are for the comic, but I think it'll be useful in general to learn vintage design concepts. I want to explore more resources from the past because i feel like older educational materials will give the comic a bit of an edge. something's sexier and comforting about vintage photos and media from the past. surely I'm not alone in feeling this way. this AMV captures the vibe perfectly.

I wish to share more, but I really need to finish the NSFW for this month >.<;; thanks for reading <3
