Dontcha think its me?!?!

Not gonna lie, I made an inquiry about this Skull brocade I found on Etsy for a new corset.
I was talking to Hastings/Praks about making pretty new underthings and lately I keep going back to the image I saw on Mode Historique. I followed that website for YEARS and drooled over everything she has ever made and if you look at her Laurel outfit, I just absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE her corset and petticote.

Praks and I were talking about dong something fun and pretty for the underclothes, because frankly its the same as always wearing a white bra, how boring ass is that?!?! Since I got that hankering for skulls and they make me giggle, I just did a search for skull silk and VOILA thats what came up!
I put in a note to ask the seller if they had at least 2 yards (its narrow, only 27 inches!) so I can eek it out of less than 2 yards if I cut super super smart. 1/4 of a yard is already 9 bucks, its gonna be pricey but its silk brocade. Can't beat that right??
